Interesting survey of medium to high-end bins in the current (September) issue of Birdwatching mag. But what is that bin purporting to be a Nikon 8x30SE? Looks like a photo of an E series to me. Which makes one wonder which binocular was tested...
Sean
They do look a bit chunky from what I remember too.
Hmm, the SE would've been 8x32, the E2 would be the 8x30. Hmmm.
