Less heavy than two pairs of binoculars. - 07/01/2009

starstarstarstarstar by Tony Shrimpton from Syracuse, NY

Heavy, yes, expensive yes….. but well worth it. To be honest I keep mine cranked up on the 12X, and seldom go to 8X, but its good to know its there and anyway the optics appear un-compromised by the ability to do this, and whenever I look through even other high end optics such as my “back up” Swarovski SLC 10x 42 (old) I prefer the Duovids. I have not compared to the 10+15x50 so do not have an opinion…maybe Eagle Optics could send me a pair to try?
I wonder how difficult it would be to design a high end true 8-15x zoom……
