The SP series will give you a more true to life 3D view than the HR II series will

I have the DCF HR II 10X42 and love them. They aren't the best out there , but I could afford em and compared to past binos , these are GREAT. I have only had cheap binos , so I can't say how they compare , but I am happy with these 10x42 . My dad has nikon 10x42 monarchs and they are also pretty nice , I think my pentax are a bit brighter , but they are close . For under $500 , these are both great binos ....I know I wont hesitate to buy Pentax again , I like mine....NMHUNTNUTT

I own both the HR II 8x42 and the DCF SP 8x43. The SP is only slightly better. For the money the Pentax are pretty good glass. I have looked through better but for about 3 times the money.
