Oh boy...
I've been wanting a Leica Geovid 10x42 for I don't know HOW long! I really like the styling now and the weight isn't really much difference from my 10X42 Swarovskis. I KNOW that kind of money is a CRAPLOAD to drop on optics! Eliminating one piece in the pack would be nice and it would really be nice to glass AND range something at the same time..
They question is... Is it worth it? I could by the current best binoculars Ziess, Swarovski, or Leica has and still have change! Although six years old, my current 10X42 SLC Swarovskis are still, in my opinion, close to the front of the pack. Am I giving up optical quality to get the all-in-one package of the Geovids?
What are ya'lls thoughts? What would YOU do?
