love comparative reviews. It sure has me thinking about my own design. I got a prototype I'm testing that's 16oz I'm trying to get it down to 14oz. Hey just curious how big is the eye opening on the UMA vertical and across? Compared to the fg-5000
I find the FG5000 to be less bulky than the UMA facesaver. I don't know if it's psychological—because the FG5000 at least looks and feels less bulky to me—but I feel as though I can see better with the FG5000 than I could with the UMA. I don't have the UMA facesaver to compare anymore so I can't say for sure. When I did use the UMA facesaver, I felt like my vision was significantly obstructed.
This might also be due to fit (it's probably this). I find that I could get the FG5000 to fit my head better than the UMA facesaver.
My two cents...
