[QUOTE="Troubador, post: 3411578, member: 109211"] Do sparkles ever ring bells Jerry? Apart from the young lady who clearly rang Gijs's bell quite loudly? Where would we be without subjectivity on BF? Nowhere is the answer but 'sparkle' can mean different things to different people. I have seen sparkly views through several different brands of bins but every time I credited this to the light on the day and not to the binocular. Being a literal-minded guy (which sometimes drives Troubadoris mad) sparkle suggests to me something with very rapidly changing brightness, and I am not at all convinced this is something we should want bins designers to aim for. The 'wow' factor is something to do with Cate Blanchet and not bins at all. Lee [/QUOTE]
