Swaro El Bino's

[Buck15]

Hey guy's

I am looking for some reviews on the Swaro EL binos versus the new Leica Noctivid line. Any current owners opinions would be greatly appreciated as I am looking to upgrade from my Vortex Razor HD's for next season.

Thanks in advance,
Buck

Very interested as I'm considering the same switch from Razors.

There is a very good comparison review on birdwatching com. Other than that all I can recommend is trying all of them. I have a set of el's and really like them but almost wishing I had the SLC's instead. They have a much more compact feel and I don't feel the swarovision is advantageous.

I have watched that one. Good review. I own a Leica Televid spotter and am very impressed with the performance. I assume the binos should carry the same quality

Looking into both companies warranty and repair service as well,
I know Swarovski really looks after their customers.

Just out of curiosity what don't you like about your razor's?

I like them. They are pretty nice bino's. The leica spotter I bought has ruined me though! lol

I have the Swarovski SLC 10x56 HD. I have owned and looked out of lots of highend binos including the Swarovski EL. The SLC is far brighter and is somewhat sharper. In fact they are the sharpest binos I have seen. They don't have the field flattening tech of the ELs but they are sharper and brighter. The down side is they are bigger and heavier but if you want the sharpest brightest binos for hunting I can't think of a better choice.

The nicest bino's I've had the chance to play with, was an older pair of SLC 7x30...
