I have had a couple--a Swaro 10x20 and a Leica 8x20. I originally bought them to keep in my pocket while quail hunting because there are always things that I see that merit a closer look. The 8x20 was a little easier to get behind and seemed to be a little brighter, as well. I ended up giving both away because I just didn't carry them enough once I quit bird hunting. If I think I will need a binocular on a stroll or a hike, I borrow my wife's 8x30 Swaros--much easier to use and not that much more weight to carry.
