To give you the short of it though, the center 1/2 of the image is superb. Excellent color and tack-on sharpness. The image in the outer half gradually decreases to some severe field curvature but not to the point where the entire image is ruined by it. Physically they are larger than I expected and the weight is noticeable but not a deal breaker at least for me.Sorry for getting off track...what were we talking about? Oh yes, $3000+ Swaro EL HDs....and $4000 scopes.... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> . Maybe if I get divorced.  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
