I really think this is a massive step forward for people who love low power/wide field views.
Wouldn"t it be great if some time down the line these were available to install on your binoculars.
Or,better still,if TeleVue start making binoculars.

Thank you Kenny--good info.
Steve, I doubdt that TeleVue would be too interested in making binoculars. Why? Well, in my opinion, as the company would adhere to very high quality standards, the offerings (could) cost an arm and a leg.
There is significant other high-end equipment out there as it is.
Then, to retrofit one or two corrective lenses to the binocular to correct for astigmatism, well.....you see what I mean.
However, I think the concept is a wonderful one. Thanks for the thoughts.
Regards,
Dave.
