BB, love that review and those 7x35 Pentax's. My favorite binocs are the Leupold Yosemite (green ring) 6x30mm. Low enough power to have a very wide field of view while scanning for game while stalk hunting (still hunting). If anything, I'd rather have a 4 or 5 power for still hunting, but couldn't find a good quality one. Extreme light weight and great optical quality too. Everyone should have a good pair of low power (6-7x), lightweight porro prisms, with a 28-35mm objective.

BB, do you have any thoughts on my question in post #35 here:

Oh yeah, and now Leupold offers the Yosemite in 8x30 if you like, in addition to 6x30. Four colors too - black, light tan, dark earth, & a maroonish color. I have the light tan one ("natural").
