They were a very popular choice for astronomy due to their good quality, lightness and full multi-coating. Good eye-relief too I seem to remember. Very similar (if not identical) to the Helios High Resolution series I think (also made in Japan). The only drawback is the fairly narrow field of view (by current standards).
