Anyone using the Swaro 8x56 or 10x56 SLC ? If so, how would you review them?
Take care, Willie

I just bought a new pair of the 10x56 SLC's two months ago.... I've been using Swarovski scopes and binocs since 1980 and these are LIGHT YEARS ahead of anything I have used. I debated between the EL's and SLC's for a day... I chose the SLC's because they are better in darkness.
I took them out west for a few weeks and used them daily here for two months... to say I am pleased would be a gross understatement.
BTW - I had a pair of the 8x56 glasses years ago... they are great in the woods. That said, the 10's are perfect for me. I just sold a pair of 15x56 to a member here because they were a bit too much and I never used them.

Thank you, I looked at the 8's and 10's really hard. I bought the 10's. I also packed 8x56 Hawke binoculars for little over a year, and was very impressed. Not Swaro category but darn impressive for cost. Very surprised no one has caught on to not only clarity, but crazy light gathering.
Take care, Willie

I have both the 8x42 SLC HD and the 8x56 SLC HD. For daylight application, I don’t find much difference. Of course the 8x56 are larger and heavier. The 8x42 do fine. At dawn and dusk, I do like the 8x56 and they “seem” a tad brighter and better in the shadows. I don’t believe the difference is hugely significant to my eyes, but they seem brighter. Otherwise, they are pretty close. Using a tripod, I like the larger, but for 8x, it’s not necessary.
