Why couldn't a catadioptric or newtonian optical system be used in binoculars?

[QUOTE="WJC, post: 3160026, member: 25191"] It sure is. However, do you think the people who wrote the ad knew that . . . or cared? Did the importer knew or care? It's like the photo of the 120x120 bino I've posted. People will brag about their new acquisition, show every neighbor who will look, and remain oblivious to the fact they aren't seeing an image magnified 120 times. That's all right, they were just in love with the big numbers printed on the backplates, anyway. At the expense of being picked on for being arrogant (comma) again, I just have to say, "It's a wonder some people aren't too stupid to breathe on their own! Aah, I feel better already. Now, if you will excuse me, I have to go repent. |:x| Bill [/QUOTE]
