Just the other late afternoon I had Rono here and we sat in the same patch of fern that JH had watched from on his recent travel jaunt. I spotted a spikey, a hind and a big calf 100 yards from us right on dark under the shadows of the tea tree. Rono was using 10x Steiners,mine were 10x Swaro`s and it wasnt until I passed him mine that he was able to see any of them. The top brands really prove themselves in these situations at either end of the day. I wont give a cussas to how good bino`s are in good light anywhere including looking up the street at midday evaluating a pair out the front of the bino store.Its the extremely poor light conditions that the top three really shine in.
