I haven't had a problem with 10x42s yet but maybe I'm doing something wrong.
Tanner I haven't had a problem with 7x30' or 8x30's......maybe I'm doing something wrong........  Casey I must be making the same mistake, cause I haven't had any trouble with my 8X32 or 42's. But I get along with my 10X43's also.

Not that I want to obsess again, but I'm thinking about selling my 8x42s and buying a new pair of 8x32 Swarovski EL SV's.
Don't waste any more time contemplating this maneuver, you won't be sorry... I don't know how to read that comment; are you saying I should or should not make that switch? I seriously would like you opinion as I'm heading down to the store tomorrow. Get the EL 8X32 Swarovision. I have all the stuff that has been talked about, I have had the 8X32 for awhile now and have even thought about selling the HD-B 10X42 and get another Swarovski LRF and use separate optics again... ![[Linked Image]](http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/optics/125_4019_zps1512c094.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/optics/100_0002_zpsd676bc45.jpg) Thanks for the encouragement to make the switch. There is a slightly used (one day), basically new 8x32 EL SV at my local shop $1,799.00. I plan on putting my 8x42 Ultravid BRs on consignment and put the ELs on layaway. So that would leave me with two 8x32 and no hunting 8x42, (the Pentax DCFs are 20 year old house binoculars).

How did using nice glass become about road hunting and dicking around?
I replace valve cover gaskets every 50K, if they don't need them sooner...

Some threads start about about guns, and then people start posting pictures of half naked big breasted nubile young women- Gawwd, I love those threads...

In their defense, even those threads still stay close to the topic. For instance, this young woman is using binoculars and that scenery behind her does look like it's in the West... ![[Linked Image]](http://d3thflcq1yqzn0.cloudfront.net/011898556_prevstill.jpeg)
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.

I use 10x42 Zen-Ray PRIME HD that I got from Cameraland for western hunting. In the open area, the 10x gets the job done
