Re: Best new ~20x80's for $300-$400?

I reviewed this thread a few weeks ago when my memory just couldn't come up with any figures about the effective magnification and aperture of the Oberwerk 20x80 Standard.

Here's the relevant part of that thread:

Quote:

EDz, what have you found out about the Obie 20x80 standards...




Quote:

I no longer have the Standards so can't measure.




Like I said if they were measured, it's likely they would come in at less than 20x80. But that's speculation.

Love 'em anyway!
