Seemed too good to miss at a tenner.
Just arrived via DPD.
Driver went to wrong building first, but luckily did ring my bell rather than scarpering off like some DPD drivers.
Gave him a small tip, as I think they are paid very little.
Made mistake of opening while cold, but this time optics did not mist over.
Seems to be 4 multicoated elements.
Big piece of glass 75mm, maybe 76mm front element.
Field, no glasses, about 45 degrees?
With computer screen glasses beautifully in focus, and sharp. Even at the edge almost sharp. Field maybe 40 degrees.
Will try to refine field size when the 50mph wind gusts subside and if the night sky is clear.
In light polluted places the gain with 2x similar optics is about 2 magnitudes, because the sky background is darkened.
Hoping to get one magnitude gain with this.
Should double the stars I can see, with even large constellations in the field.
Monocular obviously as outside diameter is about 89mm.
