Looking forward to the comparison of the two Binons.

I went out for quick check. In a nutshell, 7x50w is clear winner looking at the moon/M31. 5x32w shows more internal reflection than 7x50w if I place the moon on center. If I move a little off center, the reflection decreases noticeably. I think center sharpness is very good.
It shares the same weakness as 7x50w, picking up stray lights. It needs better hood.
Since the moon is very high on south, I can't see Milky Way very well. So I can not comment on sweeping MW yet.
I would think it will do good job as big brother. If I get up early enough tomorrow morning, I'll try Orion.
I might be sounded a little bit negative but overall, I like the new addition so far. All I need is to go to dark site on moonless night...
