New wider field of view bino’s hitting the street in September? Who will be in the market for new bino’s?

I know this is a old  thread but does anyone have these yet? I’m looking at the 12x42 but would love to look at some first and no one has any in stock anywhere around here.

I haven’t looked through them. Not many around.  End of January they should be coming in along with the 115 objective

6 oz lighter than EL’s with better view is huge - like the price !

Eyes are getting old - thinking of selling my 10x40 slc’s and getting these at 3 times the price.  Sounds crazy.

I wouldn’t think twice. They’re legit vs 10 power slc’s.

I've owned a pair for a couple months now. Swaro nailed on these..........a lot better than the 115 mm objective I'm not thrilled with.

I can look through my EL’s for hours on end without fatigue, if I miss something it’s not due to the optics. :chuckle:

 That being said, my daughter can use a upgrade from her Vortex 10x42’s, so it might be time to hand down the EL’s....not that I’m taking jj and Lances opinions too seriously, they change optics more often than underware! :rolleyes:
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Well if anyone is close to Olympia and has the NL and would be willing to let me look through them shoot me a message. I’ve never looked through the EL’s either so I’d love to be able to check those out. I’ve called the 4 different Cabelas in Wa and Or, Sportco, and a ton of sportsman’s and no one has the EL’s or the NL’s.

Dear Swaro, stuff a rangefinder with applied ballistics in that NL Pure and then I'll fire sale all my stuff and sell my second born child to pick up a pair.

B&H Photo has them in stock, unfortunately they are in NY...however, Cabela's has "sale" going on the El's and the SLC's, typical of Cabela's their "sale" price is the regular retail price for the EL's at B&H.

I don’t want to look through the new stuff. I wanted to cry when I bought my new 10x42 ELs for $1300 way back. I’m sure they are impressive.

I said the exact same thing about the forehead rest........then I actually tried it out on a friend's pair. I haven't bought one yet, but I'm leaning towards it.

Take a pic of you using it, send it to me and I’ll send it to Corey to use on a new creedmore meme.  🤣

I took the plunge. Ordered a pair of the 12x42’s a couple weeks ago. Hopefully in a couple weeks I’ll have them.

I've had the tens since end of October....they are dang nice...that extra field of view sure makes a big difference when panning and the clarity is something youl just need to see for your self

The forhead rest is also pretty nice as I was very skeptical as well...but after a couple months I'm definitely not getting rid of it

Now trying to find a bino harness that fits properly  is another topic...
