Ahh, now I understand what you were saying. I had thought your earlier comment was in reference to build quality, not optics.

From an optical standpoint I personally find the Meostars competitive with the SLCs and Trinovids. If they utilized an ED glass design I think they would then subsequently be comparable to the ED "Alphas".
I agree, they are right there and really very, very good bins! The SLC's have been continually improved optically and use the same glass, coatings, and prisms as the EL's. Only the bodies are different. So there is a big difference in a SLC of the last 6 years or so and the Trinovids. Having said this the trins are a great bin too!
