Re: 25x100 Binocular questions please

Hi,

Thanks for that Kenny. I'll probably buy the 25x100's for around £250 for astronomical use, then I'll wait to buy a second pair for birding.

The wildlife reserve that I was talking about earlier is Martin Mere, and of course, the main interest their occurs during the autumn and winter months, so I've got plenty of time to buy a second pair.

As for chromatic aberration - I'm use to poor quality consumer type binoculars, so I expect I won't notice it very much. In fact, I've never even looked through a good quality pair.

I've never relly been comforable looking through my telescope with one eye, so mybe I'm one of those people who prefers binocular viewing. And I didn't evern realise that I would get a wider view than with my 10" telescope!

Thanks for all the good advice.

Stephen
