You won't go wrong with any of the big 3 Swaro EL, Leica Geovid, or Zeiss. I own the Geovids. They are probably 6-7 years old now. At the time the EL and Geovid were the only real options. One of my hunting buddies had the ELs at the time. Both were priced within a couple hundred of each other. After much debate and many trips to stores with both I chose the Geovids over the ELs. The rangefinder was better hands down. For my eyes the Leicas glass was better at that time. Just a year ago my brother went with the Zeiss because at that time he felt the Zeiss had the best glass and features. With these 3 all priced similarly look at the features to determine what will work best for the way you want to use them. All 3 have great glass. I was fortunate enough to find both the Leica and Swaro at two different stores during my work travel that allowed me to take them outside to compare in different light and background. I chose the Leica at the time. All 3 have made improvements recently and I honestly couldn't tell you which way I would now without doing more research on the current features.
