Would you say that the view through the Tak 22x60 is a COOL bias, WARM bias, neutral, or....?




I don't know how much variation there is as this is the only pair I've ever looked through, but I would say it's pretty neutral, perhaps more on the cool side if anything.




Had my Tak 22X60 out looking at Jupiter and the moon this AM. My vote is "cool" for the image description. The lunar surface is white--the way it is in the Zeiss Abbe eyepieces, as opposed to the "warm" cream or slightly yellowish tint the lunar surface has in TeleVue plossls. I compared the image of the moon in the Tak's to the Fuji 16X70. The increased magnification and the lack of chromatic aberration (present in the Fuji) made the Tak image the better one.
