They are now discontinued, but other alternatives are available such as the fuji 16x70, the fuji clones, or the new 22x70 WO that just came out. The spotting scopes have the advantage of the zoom eps, but when I compared, the binocs seemed brighter. edj -------------------- n w arkansas Binocular, Solar, General Amateur Astronomy Post Extras       Entire thread Subject Posted by Posted on Binoculars or a good spotting or field scope?
