Don't really know the answer, but 50 mm aperture is usually tops for hand held. If you are under thirty and have blue eyes get the 7x50. If you're over 35 or have brown eyes get 10x50. (You're trying to match the exit pupil size to your own pupils, the maximum diameter of which generally shrinks as you get older.)

Just another morsel for thought.

Cheers,

Brian.
