W.O.T Report post Posted July 16, 2008 whats the real difference between these models? I can read the specs, but I'd like to hear from those that have actually used them... are there reasons that I should buy 1 vs the other? I see the SLC are about $1500 and the EL are about $1900 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmer Negamanee Report post Posted July 17, 2008 You might want to try posting this question on the "Optics and Other Gear" section. There are some dealers and other optic-philes (or optik-philes as the case may be) who may be able to answer your question. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattobertin Report post Posted July 17, 2008 I don't know the difference between the two but I have a pair of 10x50 slc's and they are awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatfootdoc Report post Posted July 17, 2008 I have the 10x 42 els and the 15x 56 slc's, they are both great glass, the selling point for me on the el vs slc in the 10x 42 was weight and I really like the diopter adjustment on the els, you set it click it in and you are good to go unless you pull it out to change it. The els are light as a feather which is good when you are hiking your butt off with binocular straps around your neck or shoulders. AG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
