Hi everyone,

WOW - I need a chance to catch up from last night and todays comments.

Jean - Charles,

Your right, techinally it is feasible to build your dream binocular and many of the binoculars that have been mentioned so far and I hope they all come true and dreams due come true.

We as CN members are the heart and sole of the binoculars business - the end user with the money to purchase these products.

I also believe that the Retailers and the Manufactures will improve their products and selections from suggestions made from us.

Everyone, please keep up the great dreams.

Beachchairbill

Hi everyone,

Here is a shock and a dream come true at the same time. Today, I purchased a telescope, the Orion Apex 127(5 inch) Maksutov-Cassegrain for Planet and moon observations. For me the Canon 15x50IS and the GBT 100/45 were just not cutting it for me and hope this purchase will bring me closer details of the planets and the moon. Do I dare look at binoviewers. Have never held or viewed with them.

Bill,

You've gone too far this time

You need two for a Bimakular.

Clear skies for the new mirror thingy.

Hi Glen,

I feel like I've gone to the dark side with one eye.

Stan - 30x80 are still on my list, however, Jupiter keeps haunting me every clear night out my third floor kitchen window and I have the bug to see it better than at 66.2mag with the GBT.
