New Binoculars, spotting scope, or both...

Just pursuing the various classifieds. Lots of 10X42 ELs for sale. Which I get. But also tons of 15X56 SLCs. Which I find a little more confusing.

Very few 12x42 and 14X52. And they seem to go quick.

You're seeing guys selling the 15x56 for the 14x52 NL Pures. Good time to be in the market for the SLC.

I wasn’t really considering the SLC 15x56’s. Maybe i should

This is true.

Getting the SLC is a way to check out the magnification portion, see if you like it.

Also, there is nothing wrong with the 15SLC. Buying used, there are three models. The newest is the one you want.

There are a few more 12EL showing up, but they are much more rare.

Would be a very good choice considering what you can get a good used pair for. Especially since you are still sorting out what really fits your individual needs. If you decide they aren't what you want you can get most or all of your money back.
Just don't look through nl pures and you will be very happy!
