I love my Swaro EL Range. I have the 10x version and have used them for 2 hunting seasons. I kept my 10x42 EL HD's for the first year as I thought they were better, if just by a hair. I eventually caved and sold them as the Range binocs were 98-99% as good to my eyes. I picked up the Leicas one time and decided they were too big and heavy for my taste. I'm a Swaro slut anyway.
