Which 8x42 or 8.5x44 roof would you get?

Help me decide. I want a decent roof that is waterproof, fogfroof, fully multicoated, phase coated, and lightweight for birding, hiking, lake fishing, and general use.

Elkhorn98: Without a doubt go with Nikon Monarch. They are by far the best binos for the money. I think the quality the in the optics are the same of binos costing 3 x as much. Nikon monarchs are clear, bright and durable also light to carry.
