Z5 is better than Z3. Got'em both, 3.5-18x44 BT and 4-12x50 BT.
Instead of going "Hubble" for WT's and still wanting high power, I'd probably get a VX-6 3-18. Easier on your budget and the glass is Z5 quality if not better. It would probably take a Z6 to run with a VX-6.
VX-6's are 30mm instead of 1", but they are streamline and not as heavy as some in their class. You'll have to check the weights on line. Swaros are pretty light, especially the 1" versions.
You'll get more scope for your buck with a VX-6, IMO.
I've posted before that my next Swaro will probably be another VX-6...
