The vortex monoculars also tempting, as they are half the weight and really compact ideal for keeping weight down while in the bush.

The Diamondbacks are my first pair of grown up binoculars, so I'm hardly an expert, but they do seem to be good value for money. Buy cheap... I was also tempted by the monoculars for the same reasons as you, but wondered if they would offer much over my rangefinder and since I have a trip south planned, went for the binos.
