Leica Geovid 15x56 HD's any input?

[twigsnapper]

Any input on the new HD 15x56's? My opinion was the non hd's were a step behind the swaros but I'm wondering how the hd models measure up? I have the 12x50 swarovisions and love them but I'm always up for trying new gear. Thanks gents....

I love the leica Ultravid HD's. I have always thought that having a rangefinder inside of 15 power was not as practical as 10 or 12 power. Seems it would be hard to stabilize if you were stalking in and had to say range a deer around 80 yards or so. I think they would be great for longer range rifle hunting. My eyes are a little different than others, and I am one of the few that think the new SLC HD's are better than the new EL's. I have the regular EL's and love them, and was going to get the new EL's but hated their new flat line technology. Really plays tricks on my eyes when panning.
