my first impression of general hi-t 20x110

hi to all.
Some days ago i've received an exemplar of General hi-t 20x110.
Unfortunately the weather has been often cloudy, therefore I can only send my first impressions.
Well... this binoculars is very heavy: 6.5kg, i'am using this binoculars with a Chinese clone of bogen 501 and a fork mount sold by generalhit ...but i'am studing to improve my parallelogram mount because, with the first setup, i've many vibration during the zenith observation, also if the tripod is in the lower position.
Coatings are very good, better than the first 7x50) that i posses. Exit pupils is perfectly round, in the next few days I will use a green laser in order to verify the brightness of the exit pupil...edz docet :-)
Using in daytime i've not verify particular false color, the chromatic correction is better regarding the economic models 25x100 that I possess.
In the astronomy use, (only for an hour because of the meterological conditions) I have measured the following field: 75% 10% 15%. Observing stars of lower-middle luminosity its are pinpoints on approximately the 70-75% of the visual field,(like to good achromatic refractor) but with the stars of I and II Magn. are pinpoints on approximately 55% of the field. In synthesis the vision is better regarding mine 25x100FB.
For "my usual sub-urban sky, under which I observe, the exit pupil is too big ,5,5mm, (i use with profit 4mm of E.P) however the good contrast can "cut "the galaxies from the sky very very well. I would want to try also the version with 28 enlargementes.
I hope to send you a complete report between a pair of weeks.
Best Regards from Italy
