[QUOTE="DRodrigues, post: 1683418, member: 55152"] I first started my search by the big astro binos e.g. [url]http://www.teleskop-express.de/shop/product_info.php/info/p2233_TS-Giant-Binoculars-100mm-APO---45--angled---3-magnifications.html[/url] but gave up since these need individual focus of each eye and also zooming, if the case. Lower cost versions also seemed not suitable for reaching >90x. Some years ago I tested a Doctor bino zoom but the 50x maximum magnification were/are a limiting factor to me and also the individual focus/zooming isn't practical when you are following a marked bird... By the way this link gives more info [url]http://www.teleskop-express.de/shop/product_info.php/info/p2606_Aspectem-80-500-binocular-with-20-50x-Vario-eyepiece-set.html[/url] If the quality was good, a good bino would be the SkyMaster 25-125x80 Zoom [url]http://www.celestron.com/c3/product.php?CatID=28&ProdID=509[/url] - well to be perfect, besides high quality image it should had 100mm aperture, N2 filled and ED/Apo glass, wide angled, high eye-relief...:-O Note that >3x zooms a reaching the market - we just need a high quality one... Meanwhile I received the Apo refractor but still didn't reached a good solution. The weather will be stormy next days, with about 100% moisture which means that I only will do more tests in a week or 2... Will come back when will do it. David [/QUOTE]
