Hi Mike,

By now you've probably gotten plenty of replies, but I'll tell you what
Brad Schramm said to me.  He told me that the best thing that I could do
when looking for new optics is to get out in the field and try to compare
them side by side.  I did that, and recently purchased a pair of Bausch and
Lomb Elites 8x42 which I dearly LOVE!!!  Also, the Pentax 8X42 DCF WP's are
very nice, and quite a bit cheaper than the B&L's.

good luck!
