Should I be looking at the XQ 50 instead or as well ?
The XQ 50 demo was available sooner but I thought from my limited investigations that the 38 might have been the best option for my situation.

Yes, I took out a DEMO model (XQ50) out on Friday night - we could identify a deer vs. a bull at 300m. The XQ50 has the 4.1x optical which saves a bit of walking - I think the XQ38 is $6,400 and the XQ50 is $7,200 - NZ retail.

It was a bit scary walking over the brow of a hill and seeing a deer fill up about 80% of the image on the display - it was only about 30m away when it fell over !
