A 60º AFOV (apparently measured) is OK, but a little disappointing. I suppose it's the price paid for the extra prism length added by the beamsplitter and rhomboid prisms. Six pounds doesn't seem too bad to me since I already use a nine pound scope, but many people won't like that, especially combined with a heavier tripod head. Add the hefty prices and I don't expect to see many BTXs in my neck of the woods.</p></blockquote><p></p>
