From the ad, they sound like what I am looking for ( 7x50 is not large enough, and 11x80 is a pain in the arms! ), but I have never heard of this company, and the price seems rather low ( ~$160 ). The intended use is mostly astronomical, with a little bit of spying on the neighbors :-) Thanks, and I will summarize to the net. -- Tim Smith sdcrdcf!ism780c!tim || ima!ism780!tim || ihnp4!cithep!tim
