A good friend of mine is a swaro dealer and bought the Leica's thinking he would like them better for bow hunting (right hand operation). He called them "junk"..What do you expect from a swaro dealer tho..I've used them both and could go either way. But i'm one of the few that dont care for the rangefinder in my bino's, especially since the G7 range hit the market..

Shrap, have you used the 12x50 EL SV's much? I wrote them off cuz i have 10's and 15's, but I hear they are not too much to steady off a tripod, unlike the 15.
