Former "Crucan and Deming-ite? No longer in the area, so I can't loan you optics.
I've owned a ton of the "Mid Tier" optics tho. Still own Meopta 12s for an All Around western glassing from tripod. Pretty big fan. Still own a 10X42 HD that I've wanted to move for a few year. Nice, clear, sharp, etc. Just don't fit into my system. A bit dark image at twilight compared to other optics.
Do own the big 82mm spotter. Very nice.
I've swapped a bunch to Maven. I am very impressed with Maven for mid tier and Bang for Buck. I pick Maven over comparable Meopta optics.
My hunting partner has 65mm Maven spotter. I have 65mm Swaro HD spotter. I would pick the Maven and I've run both side by side for several days.
FWIW
