I tried the Nikon Trailblazer in 10 x 50 and the Leupold Acadia in 8 x 42, bought the Leupolds' the view through them was a lot sharper to me. You can't go wrong with either of them. If you can try them outdoors as opposed to in the store, lighting outside is a lot different than inside. I work at Cabelas so I was able to check them out and use them for a couple of weeks in the same situations as I would after purchase.
