I finally sacked up and bought some swaro el 12x50. I had been looking through some vortex razors forever and loved em. For a little comparison, the swaro is obviously better glass, edge to edge clarity and color definition is where I see it the most. I will say the vortex eye cups are a lot nicer then the swaro, also the the weight and size of the razor was much nicer, especially at 13000 ft in colorado with a pack. the 3000$ is still hard to swallow but it is a lot better I guess, ill appreciate the purchase the more I use them.

i bought the el 10x42 this year and love them but have never looked through vortex razor, but was thinking of getting the razor spotting scope.
