    Review of the Brunton ICON 25-50x 80mm Angled Scope

    Whats really Important ? I recently e-mailed Ziabeam & found out that he & his family are dealing with a life changing medical condition involving his wife which is now at home recovering from a very serious operation. To answer my own Post ... Family is the most important thing & I am sure...

    Baader Zoom/Burgess 1.9 Corrector Combo ? As to Henry's comment of the Baader Hyperion zoom .... After reading Medinabrit's comment here in Dec. 2009 saying that the Baader zoom will work in the Pentax 65mm when the Burgess 1.9x Binoviewer is used, I purchased a couple awhile back thinking they...

    Review of the Brunton ICON 25-50x 80mm Angled Scope

    Pentax XW20 Removal From The Brunton I do not think so, without doing harm to the eyepiece or scope ocular port. I used the "Liquid Nails" silicone formula & I did not skimp on the amount I used. I did a test on two very large metal washer that were partially overlapped prior to the eyepiece...

    Review of the Brunton ICON 25-50x 80mm Angled Scope

    GOoooo Ziabeam ... If indeed you are able to make a commercial grade adapter for the 77/88mm Kowa's as Henry mentioned, I also think there will be many that would like to get their hands on one. ...gwen

    Review of the Brunton ICON 25-50x 80mm Angled Scope

    I personally would not attach any eyepiece to the Brunton unless it was at least a watertight/rain proof eyepiece. I knew that when I attached the Pentax XW20 to the Epoch Brunton that it was never coming off & with the Pentax I was not worried about the eyepiece failing(fogging or worse). Even...

    Review of the Brunton ICON 25-50x 80mm Angled Scope

    I sold the zoom on Ebay, the buyer probably already had the brunton scope with the 25-50 zoom and wanted a 20-60 power zoom. I do not know how many potential buyers are out there but I will find out when I start to sell off the other brunton scopes bodies and zoom eyepieces. Before Brunton...

    Review of the Brunton ICON 25-50x 80mm Angled Scope

    Henry .... You might want to think about selling both zoom eyepieces, then finding a higher fixed eyepiece you could permanently attach to which either style body scope you prefer. Since you would like to use this scope at a higher magnification, sell the other scope body you do not want to...

    Review of the Brunton ICON 25-50x 80mm Angled Scope

    Henry .... You mention this scopes odd behavior at close range , along with the 25-50x eyepiece lateral CA on the center of field and what appears to have a unique objective design .... could this all be because Brunton's designers goal was to market this to "Shooters " (Hunters), people who...

    Review of the Brunton ICON 25-50x 80mm Angled Scope

    Henry ... I wonder if because I ordered my 4 Icons a few weeks before you, is why they all arrived in a nicely packaged shipping box's with Botach's shipping invoice . They all came in Brunton"s foam line box's with all paperwork(manuals,warranty/registration cards. Do you think the zoom...
