Wild m420 vs wild m8 vs wild m10
Hello,
I currently have a wild m8 I am curious what others though are on the difference between this and the wild m420 and the wild m10,
is the wild m420 harder to work under as there is no depth perception?
And how much better is wild m10 over a wild m8?
thanks

Hi,
I don't really understand what 1 x objective is doing, if it was lower or higher that makes sense but why have a 1x lens instead of air?
