Re: upgrading from 15x70

Hello Nick ,
Speaking strictly from what I've read and from what people have told me , I would have thought the 15 x 70 ULTRA would be more representative of a " step - up " in image quality than the 20 x 80 Standard ( formerly De - Luxe ).
Considering the 70mm costs around 30% more than the 80mm. there could be a clue there .
With regard to published specs. of field of view , it would appear to be level pegging at around 66*AFOV .
Kenny
