Hello all. Being relatively new to bird watching I currently use a Viking Navigator 10x42. The time is right for me to upgrade and I am finding the field of view of these too restrictive. I am looking at either the RSPB HD
http://www.rspboptics.com/acatalog/rspb_hd.html or the Opticron Verano http://www.warehouseexpress.com/pro....aspx?sku=15220. Just wondering if anyone has used either of these and has any views? My primary requirements are brightnes of image and field of view.
I wish I could help but I am not familiar with either model. I am guessing they are something unique from your side of the pond? I do seem to remember the RSPB HD and the Opticron Verano being mentioned often on certain threads.
Sorry I could not help more.
