So, is there a particular element in bino's that provides a better 3d depth of field (if that's the proper term) or does it come from sharpness and color rendition. I appreciate the advice to go look at a bunch and see what my eyes like. It seems binoculars have come a long way in the past 20 years.
A good question and I would like to know the answer also. As I mentioned in previous threads, I have updated 7x30 and 8x30 SLC's. The 7x30's SLC's have always been noted for their excellent 3D image, and is noticeably better than the 8x30's. This was true before and after the updates. The 8x30's also have new and improved (according to Swaro) prisms, while the 7x30's kept their original prisms. Both have new dielectric coatings on the prisms, new coatings on the objective lens, 4th gen eyepieces.
