I don't have the Soundgear version, but in case you find it useful I wrote the below on the 'other' NZ hunting forum back in 2011. I've still got the same pair - still working perfectly (despite full...

There'd be a justification for both the 3.5-18x44 and the 2.4-12x50. The 2.4-12x50 is an inch shorter, has 29% more objective lens area and should have more depth of focus. As I understand it, side...
