I have the 10x42 Zeiss and love them. I am 67 yrs. old and do not have any
trouble with shakiness or difficulty to focus. I can focus at 5 ft or across
my 10 acre field.

Since 2000, I've had the Swaro 8.5x42 EL bins, and love 'em!
I like the optics, mechanics and ergonomics.
As far as magnification goes, I prefer something in the 8-8.5x range.
Anything below doesn't magnify as much as I want; anything above makes me
susceptible to hand shake. Plus the light gathering (exit pupil) is a bit
better with the 8.5x than the 10x bin.
Just my two cents!
