OK I confess, I have a 10"GPS & I'm very happy with it, A friend has an 8" but we have'nt compared them optically as yet
I drew the line at the 10" as far as wieght/portability goes(22kg's) It's easy enough to get from the car to tripod maybe 10 metres away but you wouldn't want to walk the length of a rugby field with it, 2 people might manage ok
the 10" has a 3 1/4" visual back whereas the 8" is 2"
I'm looking at buying a wedge for mine but unfortunately it requires the much more expensive ultrawedge whereas the 8" will mount on the standard wedge at a third of the cost
I've not seen another 10" at club nites etc but have seen a few 8" ones
the 10" still fits in a small car boot or back seat
the only other significant point I can think of is the price difference

Cheers
Bryan
