The most available right now is very clean used LX models. I know these will weigh significantly more than the newer LXL but as long that there is not an optical disadvantage that is not a concern. It is hard to believe that binoculars made 15-20 years ago can still compete but I suppose the way to think of it is that LX's can be bought at $700 with a warranty probably compare very well to a new $700 binocular on the market.
