Need new 10x42 Roofs!



Hello,

I just recently misplaced my 7 year old Fujinon BFL 10x42's and this time,
Im looking to buy 10x42 roof prisms. My budget is $500.00 and I am an
eyeglass wearer and need eye relief of minimum of 16mm and MUST have
and IPD measurement of a minimum of 57mm!

Can you please offer me some suggestions?

Thank you
Michael


If you can go 500-800 dollars, try Bushnell Elite e2, Vortex Viper. Both have to be seen, they are pretty good but not any Swarovskis.

Other than that, there are a number of useable 10x42s in the 200-400 range. You really have to see them to see what little faults you can put up with.

I have been looking for these magical 400 dollar 10x pairs for years. Did not find one. I have a pair of Zeiss where I like the optics, but the rest of it has been a bit of an adjustment. They were not as comfortable as the cheaper ones.

here are some good reviews

Stokes Broadwing looks good on specs, have not seen it.
