In this video we compared the five 10x42 rangefinding binoculars, that we believe, are leaders in the market currently. These are the Swarovski EL-Range, Leupold BX-6 Range HD, Vortex Talon 10k, Sig Sauer Kilo 10k, and the Leica Geovid AB+. They were evaluated on the following criteria: Overall optical clarity, edge-to-edge clarity, bright light performance, ballistic functionality, display\reticle information, ergonomics, build quality\design, value, comparable models and personal recommendation. We graded each binoculars based on a rating system from 1-10. All scores are out of 100 possible points.
Disclaimer: Digiscope footage may not accurately reflect performance of the binocular. We used a universal digiscoping adapter to acquire footage for informational purposes and could contain flaws. Reticle Flickering You may notice that some of the reticles flicker on video. That's due to the fact that LED lights are rapidly turning on and off. This creates a mismatch between the light's frequency and the camera's frame rate. This flickering is imperceptible to the human eye but becomes noticeable when recorded.
