The Premier is a superb
binocular and it would be my first choice of those you listed in terms of
optics and overall quality, though, in truth, all of those are great
binoculars. Should be ok on your IPD on any.
Handling, though, is a very, very subjective thing. I can't begin to predict what will feel best for you. You really owe it to yourself to get each in your hands and see what works best for you. I, myself, like most gals,prefer a lighter, slimmer
binocular and, for just my hands, the
Pentax worked best, then the
Nikon and the
Leupold, last. The
Leupold is unusually heavy for its size and had its slick finish had a tendency to slip in my hands, but it an absolutely first class, rugged
binocular.
