Re: Brunton 'Lite-Tech' 10x42 mini -review

That's a good review. I thought it a good addition that you compared the view to another binocular. The 10x42 should have been able to see more stars than the 8x40, but with the internal reflections and ghosting problems you mentioned that might account for why it was not able to. If you can see stray light on bright objects, even though you do not see reflections or ghost when viewing fainter objects, there is still stray light on less bright objects and this may account for not seeing as faint stars with the 10x42.

Good coverage of all the basics.
