Nice overview. Would you say they're usable handheld for hiking situations and such? I have 10x32 NLs and planned to get 12x42, but I'm tempted by the 14's if they're practical.
@@mrh9635 I’d definitely go with the 14’s if you plan on keeping the 10’s for hiking, quick scanning etc. The 14’s are amazingly pretty decent in your hands as a high power bino, but I wouldn’t have them as my only option. I dive a little bit deeper in this podcast.. open.spotify.com/episode/6IvO1ncJYwjcGhkE1CVrrN?si=T2CxCLNFQe-T8ErPWPovcA&t=1&context=spotify%3Ashow%3A074Wo8JFePZGTQvmJvOU0j
I have the 15x56 SLC so when I checked out the NL I was already coming from a stellar optical viewpoint. I didn’t think the NLs were qualitatively that different to justify moving up in price. Probably better to compare with non Swarovski binoculars
That’s interesting, to me, the difference was unbelievable. The 15 SLC are great glass, but in comparing the field of view it’s such a big difference, that alone is worth it to me.

@@travishobbs Listening now. At 15mins 'Matt' says what I wanted to hear: 'the first hand -holdable high power bino'.
I don’t currently have an optics setup, but those look amazing. Thanks for chance to win!

I have the 12x42 NLs and they would still be my first choice for several reasons.
Edge to edge clarity like the 10x/8x NL series, they are mind blowing
😊Is it NL 100% Edge to edage Sharpness same as EL or did u Fail again?😮
do you handhold the nl14x ? how is the handshake ?
Compared to the 15’s it’s MUCH better, however they really need to be on a tripod for maximum benefit
😅Only knows how to talk & talk & talk & never compared them side by side using see through by exit pup HD video view🤔🤔🤔
