From those that are using this particular set how do you like them , and how good are they in low light? Thinking the 8x32 due to a larger field of view than the 10x32 or 10x42.

8x42 is where the money shot is.
Do you wear glasses and are near sighted?
Then 8x32 is never the answer.
Best answer 8x42, 8x50, 8x56, 8.5x56, 7x42. Ok answer 10x50 EL, 10x56.
If you are not near sighted then it doesn't matter.

I switched from 8x32 to 10x42, field of view is large enough for me, low light is great, and I enjoy the extra magnification.

Do not wear glasses and not near sighted. I would not be using the pair myself, it's for an overseas trip for my guide to use in central asia.
Found a good deal on a 8x32 , thought to get it rather than buying a Vortex Diamondback 10x42 for him to use.

I wouldn't have anything positive to say about a Vortex Diamondback. So maybe. Sheep/goat hunt? He's probably prefer a 10x42 or 10x50.

Never used their products, but from what people say is not to good. Going after ibex and siberian roe deer.
Will get a 10x42 or 10x50 will be more suited
