    Eye relief of 25-50W zoom eyepiece?

    I wear eyeglasses and eye relief is a critical issue for me. I have no trouble seeing the whole field for most of the zoom range with the 25-50x. In comparison, there is a much bigger eye relief dip in the middle of the zoom with the 20-60x, and I can't see the whole field except at the ends of...

    Here are the new modular Swarovski scopes

    Compared to the current 25-50x eyepiece, the longer eye relief, larger AFOV, and larger zoom range of the ATX/STX are certainly very welcome. Other than that, I can't imagine anything that's significantly better optically than the ATM/STM HD. So I'm sure the new line of scope will be a delight...

    Nikon Superior E 8x32

    I think Nikon screwed up in how they switched from EDG I to EDG II, at least in the US. While I definitely benefited from the $1000 EDG I + free camera kit deal, I think now it's hard for Nikon to justify their $2000+ EDG II pricing. Regardless of brand, I bet a lot of people looking to spend...
