[QUOTE="Binastro, post: 3390290, member: 111403"] Hi Bob and Steve. I have not decided what type of blackouts I get. I have too much eye relief with the SE without glasses. Too little with glasses, which I don't normally use or like. I can use my brow, but why should I do this when I have binoculars that are comfortable to use without this. Has Gijs tested the transmission? I've seen reports it is 95%, which is one reason I kept the binoculars as test objects. For me, the EII is far superior. And I would not mind if Nikon went further and produced a top end 75 to 80 deg binocular in standard sizes. As to star images, the SEs are very good at the edges with 60deg AFOV, but Nagler eyepieces are just as good with 82 or 84 deg AFOV. [/QUOTE]
