I do think ED adds something besides just more accurate color. Maybe its contrast which I find very important - I don't know and I can't prove it to you.
As for the 881 - that has never been in the option category if you read my original post.
663 vs. 773
Ok so maybe brightness equates to aperature.
But I don't understand that the implied ED is only important if your digiscoping holds or why I'm being told here that a non ED scope is as good as an ED one?
I have the Swift Audubon's 8.5x44 in ED and I think they are much better for...
My eyes are pretty bad, like 20 x 920 and at 53 I can use the extra light/brightness that ED gives you for sure. Not sure I'll get 700.00 more from the increase in aperature?
I wanted to upgrade to an ed type scope from my old TSN 661.
The place I shop lists the 663 (angled ED) for 899.00 and the 773 angled for 1599.00.
I'm wondering - is the 773 worth an extra 700.00?
On another thread someone mentioned that the 773 would allow me to get a better eyepiece and...
I thought
the 773 had Flourite. Where I shop its 600.00 more than the 663 ED.
So it makes sense to me that for 600.00 you get more than a 10mm increase in size?
Ihave an old non ed 661 and want to upgrade to ed/flourite whatever :) thought maybe I'd go a little bigger maybe, not sure. I am...
I am looking for a compact bin with good eye relief to take kayak birdwatching. I have some nice expensive bins and will not risk them with my beginner kayaking skills plus I want something small so I will want to take them.
My list right now is:
Leopold Yosemite 6 x 30 20mm er 17 oz...
I personally wouldn't want to do all this messing about and might return them and try a different brand.
I am considering these for kayaking and they are on my list because I need eye relief. Hope they work for me.
