Really?)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">They will be priced to compete at the 95%-function-@-50%-of-alpha price-point where there's a lot of competition right now.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">They look like they're great in every way except (for me) those field-flattening eyepieces. While they're probably wonderful for lots of people, they don't seem so for me. Field flatteners make my head hurt. (My limitation, not the binoculars. And that won't stop me from trying 'em, just in case..)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Some people will say bad things about them (without necessarily knowing anything about them).</li> </ol>From the subsequent posts I can only guess I was wrong...   ...Mike</blockquote>
