No, experience tells me differently but I live in hope yet again.I like the look of it at least from the pics and the fov is decent/sort of standard.At the end of the day I know it's just a tiny bin with limited use but if the view looks nice for what it is then I am sure I will be happy. Please, please be a good one this time:eek!:Just thinking back to the Nikon HGL 8x20 I had. It was ok but to be honest I never really exactly liked it and then recently I returned a Hawke Sapphire 8x25 with beautiful optics but the usual loose hinge and some pretty uncomfortable eyecups and very exacting in the eye placement required so basically it will probably be a miracle if I like this RSPB HD and it's coming slow post so I have loads of time to think of DOOM!!!Hey ho. I guess I may just have to do yet another return if it really sucks.</blockquote>
