    Just bought it yesterday! One word: AMAZING!! It was worth the long hard saving and living cheap. I am the happiest man alive when I'm scoping in nature watching birds, the moon, stars and planes :D

    Its not as 3d of a feel a regular binocular, which are double tubes. But it has the viewing comfort of using both eyes. Stereo in, mono out... ✌️

    *But it has NO 3D-Effect, because its a MONO sent to a Bino (Left and Right is exact the same Picture), so you have the most expensive Fake-Bino ;)*

    Yes, you are correct about the 3d... Dont get them if you think its for 3d effect. It is not fake, as it was never designed to be 3d. The benfit is in the comfort of viewing. Not having to close one eye and view with the other like normal monocular telescopes.

    As you're all talking Swarovski scopes I know I'm out of my league, but why not just digiscope with a mono ocular? It's probably just me however it seems a lot of money just for a bino ocular. It definitely looks good though, and if they gave me one I'd take it no complaints.

    Do not forget you will loose half the aperature of the primary lens doing it this way.

  • @RedShiftedDollar

    3 жыл бұрын

    Isn’t it that you lose half the brightness to each eye? It seems this would be 1/sqrt(2) loss of aperture in terms of brightness while retaining full benefit of the enhanced resolution. This means higher useful magnification is possible but general performance will be comparable to binoculars with 70% the aperature.
