Quick question. What is the smallest (angular size) object you have seen in binos (particularly 15x70's) ?

13.4 arcseconds Sigma 2470 Lyr cleanly split using Oberwerk 15x70s
9.6 arcseconds Gamma Delphinus notched/elongated with proper Position angle recorded.

Above I answered what I have seen in 15x70s. here are some other sights from my log book.
I have seen the four components of the Trapezium separated in Oberwerk 20x80s. The closest two stars are 8.7"
I have clearly seen Gamma Del 9.6" separated in the Fujinon 16x70s.

Thanks EdZ. Another question. How do the Oberwerk 20x80's measure up to the Fujion 16x70's?
