I have the current 8x32BAs and find them a terrific compromise between small size and viewing comfort. Particularly in the summer, I use these a lot in the nearby woods when the morning light's grown too harsh for my photos. I'll maybe sit down in a shady spot and after awhile, the birds and other small critters resume their activities around me. There's no particular system to my observations, I'll just keep quiet and observe. The quick focusing action and what--2.5 meter?--minimum distance make these binoculars practically long-range microscopes. I sometimes wish I had a camera lens to match them, if only I could carry it! Jeff
