[QUOTE="Binastro, post: 3440717, member: 111403"] Accepted. I also hope that there will be more reviews soon, maybe by experienced birdwatchers. Just tried Minolta 8x40 Standard MK in very late sunshine. Both sun and shadow on white pillars and building. Beautiful day here. The Minolta clearly has a wider and to me full field. The view is dimmer than 8x42 HG. There was a little CA from HG, none from Minolta. The Minolta is clearly not sharp away from centre, but looking centrally one doesn't notice it. It is surprising how useable the old Minolta is. I wonder if all HGs show some false colour or whether most show less. Maybe some won't even notice it even on this sample, but I have learnt from this forum how sensitive some people are or they just don't like any false colour. [/QUOTE]
