I have and currently use both the Z5 and the VX5. I love them both for different reasons. I find my Z5 just starts to struggle when up at 17 - x18 magnification. I don’t know many who like the factory dial that comes on the Z5 so maybe budget another $100 for a new MOA dial. I probably ever so slightly prefer looking through the Z5 but I really couldn’t say as there is nothing in it. If I was told to choose only one I would probably lean to the VX5. I prefer the way it functions. It feels better mechanically it that makes sense. But I love them both!
