Any advantages of the 1-4 over the 1.5-5? Other than for grouse shooting that is.
Yes, I know, the 1.5-5 is a VX3 so it has "better glass?"
FWIW Ive used both extensively and the only REAL advantage I ever saw was that the 1-4 VX2 would glare out looking into the rising or setting sun, the VX3 did not....good to know when hunting leopard.
