Default RE: Leica LRF900

I have a Leica LRF 800 that I bought for a similar dual purpose (ranging and binocular for hunting).

It makes a great range finder as it is small and very easy to use. As a binocular, it is only fair. First of all, the LRF 800 is a monocular so prolonged viewing gives me the 'squinty-eyed headache' after a few minutes. Second, it doesn't give the clarity and feeling of depth (at least for me) that even a compact bino does.

However, I am willing to compromise since I ground hunt/spot and stalk and can't stand the extra weight of both a bino and a ranger.
