## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do the Vortex diamondback 8x42 bins compare to the Vortex crossfire?  which is heavier?**
A: Sorry I am not familiar with the Crossfire version.... The Diamondback's are much lighter though than a pair of similar Leitz binocs that I have

**Q: Does anybody have any experience with these vs the non-HD version?**
A: http://www.birdwatching.com/optics/2019_Diamondback-HD/review.html

**Q: are the prisms bak4? I do not see it in the description**
A: Yes. In the HD version.

**Q: What's the difference between the Diamondback and the Viper binoculars?**
A: I have both - an 8x32 diamondback HD and the 8x42 Viper HD. The Vipers are simply amazing - the clarity and brightness are sensational for birding. The diamondbacks are very close and like them as a go to for walks because they are lighter and fit into a pocket. However, they have a smaller field. It really depends on your needs.
