    Looking at the Mr and Mrs Smith 'Binocular' again. Both the left and centre front windows seem fully covered by tight fitting rubber caps. I don't think this instrument would work with just the right front window functioning. As with many movies it is probably just made up. Stargate movie had...

    Patudo. Mr and Mrs Smith Ch 30 freeview. Now. 38mins into movie, say 32mins without ads. Military laser rangefinder. 2005? Litton, Wild or many other possibilities. I note that the left objective cover is firmly in place. This could be because she doesn't know what she is doing or that there...

    Reminds me of. How many people does it take to change a light bulb? Eleven. One to hold the bulb and ten to turn the room around. About half of all the movies and television programmes have at least one binocular shown. Especially seen in thrillers. Jesse Stone. Probably Selleck's own 10x40...

    Horse racing. Astronomy. I saw a 10x30 Mk 1 used by the captain of aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan. Surprising choice where money is of no concern. Surveillance use also. Bird watching.
