Hello.  Looking for suggestions for best compacts based on your experience in the field.  

1. Nature viewing, including birds.
2. 10x
3. Compact tube required for very small pupil to pupil distance and deep eye sockets.  Swarovski x32 EL tubes are too large.  
4. Smooth and loose focus knob for constant fine-tuning, as I like to view a range of focus while viewing the subject.  
5.  Currently use a Zeiss Victory Compact 10x25 T*.

As this is my first Opticstalk forum inquiry, I would be delighted to hear from experienced users that offer a binocular that can compete with what I am currently using.

The only ones that are going to compete with the Zeiss you already have are the ones from the other "alpha" companies, namely Swarovski and Leica.

The Nikon Premier might also be considered competitive by some.
