Seems like a great travel bino.I notice a number of members considering a small scope. I can recommend that! I'm on the California coast right now, travelling with the Nikon ED50 with 27x wide and it sees a lot of use. Scope + cf travel tripod weigh in well under 2 kg and I'll be carrying it 10+ miles today. Easy. So far 4 fellow birders have had a look through it and all 4 sort of went "wow" and asked what kind of scope it was. Nobody expects a tiny scope to perform, but a good one certainly can.So far, that's about it.</blockquote>
