Anyone tried this Opticron monocular (BGA 8/10X42) with or without 2,5x teleconverter?
Could it be a light weight alternative to a scope?

I was looking at that on the warehouse express website the other day and was thinking the exact same thing ( with that teleconverter ). I don't know enough about optics to comment myself. Sorry!

I bought a cheap monocular here in Japan last year ( brand name Nashica ) and was not impressed ( it probably only cost about $10 though ).
