What may be more important is that quite a few people can not afford the price of the Leica Ultravids and for them the Kite Lynx, Maven B3 and Nikon m7 30 mm's are a good alternative. Looking at the sales figures of the Lynxes at the Dutch Bird Protection Asssociation many people are satisfied by them.With respect to pincushion in the Lynxes, that is in my samples not stronger than in the Leica Utravids.The tranmsission curves will be published soon on the WEB-site of House of Outdoor, but I want to check the measurements and that is in this time of the year when the laboratory is closed, not possible.I wish you a Happy New Year and many excellent views through excellent and a little less excellent binoculars,Gijs</blockquote>
