[QUOTE="vkalia, post: 1096348, member: 19756"] I have the Skyline ED and while I dont have a basis for comparison (it is my first scope), I think that it is an excellent scope (especially as I got it for the pricely sum of $475 as a demo unit). The image is sharp with a nice wide view at 20x. By the time you get to 60x, you have to turn the eye-relief to zero in order to have a reasonable field of view. 60x is usable. Not great, but better than nothing. On the ED version, atleast, I have not noticed any CA. Have yet to try digiscoping on it, so cannot comment there. Overall, very satisfied. I ended up buying the scope after my good experience with the 8x42 Vipers and it has turned out to be a good decision. Vandit [/QUOTE]
