Those that never tried it, should do it!...- I would prefer that there were 2 versions: - a BATX and a BSTX... As there is only the BTX I wish great success to Swarosvki and hope than in the future there will exist both versions and with zoom...<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" />- The BTX AFOV might be similar to the Kowa Highlander (both producers seem to use different ways of measuring the AFOVs), but will be too distant from the Docter... Using both eyes induce less dependence of AFOVs (we seem to view larger AFOVs, besides the pseudo-3D effect...), but the "WOW" factor of the Docter should be higher. The BTX wins in all practical details.Extender:- Will have one as soon as possible!...:t:- Perfect for my needs and will transform the X95 on the ultimate cr-birding telescope. Will compare it to the Optolyth 100 with the Baader zoom and a 1.6x barlow (see <a href="http://www.pt-ducks.com/cr-telescopes.htm#Test_of_a_1.6x_magnifier" target="_blank">http://www.pt-ducks.com/cr-telescopes.htm#Test_of_a_1.6x_magnifier</a> and <a href="http://www.pt-ducks.com/cr-telescopes.htm#Test_of_my_present_preferred_cr-telescopes" target="_blank">http://www.pt-ducks.com/cr-telescopes.htm#Test_of_my_present_preferred_cr-telescopes</a>);- I understand that normal birders would prefer smaller increase factor but most will be surprised with the views at 120x!...<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
