Keith, I just got back from a visit to Kansas & Nebraska, so the other method isn't at my finger tips. Coatings can be chemically removed too. (Keep after me ...
All, Hmmmmm.... Did anyone order the Celestron 25 x 100's from Heartland America? I had noticed an "expected arrival" date earlier in the week, now I can't...
My guess is lurkers snatched em all up... I didn't get one, I am not ready to mount such an instrument. The pipe mount looks to be rather tedious unless a...
You're right in both cases Keith. I notified all of the members in one of my clubs, and at least one guy bought them. And the EZ Binoc Mount is indeed a...
It's too bad I had to pass that up... But the little travel mak I just got is proving to be a great performer for its size and price ($125 on astromart), Apex...
hey guys I haven't seen an answer for this question yet, or did I miss it? I'm sure Ken, and many others myself included, would like an answer on this. Surely...
I recently was the high bidder at auction on a pair of these binoculars, attracted by the claim of three element apochromatic objectives and 7 degree field of...
For telescopes too! I am sitting in the library at "New Mexico Skies" browsing the internet and typing this message waiting for the fog to lift (probably...

Just picked out Venus during bright evening twilight at about 7:15pm local time. I was using my 10x32 Leicas. Over the next few months Venus will be slowing...
While I can't argue with you about the pro's and con's of Burgess and the problems they've got, I am somewhat disheartened to read your review; you are correct...
... local time. I was using my 10x32 Leicas. Over the next few months Venus will be slowing pulling away from the sun and moving southward. Also on the evening...

Bill: Your enthusiasm for Burgess is duly noted; I'm sorry I cannot agree with your statement that the Burgess 42 series binoculars are the "Real Deal". To me...
Duly noted, Fred. Your experience was not good and excuses don't feed the bulldog, as they say. For the record, all 1026 customers were comped either with a...
all, I currently own five pairs of binoculars from 8x20 to 20x80. The little 8x20s, a pair of Leica Trinovids, give me much joy because they are by far the...
Mark, Brightness is determined by exit pupil. All else being equal (which it never is) an 8x40, a 10x50 and a 12x60 and 16x80, all with 5mm exit pupil will all...
all, still ranting on about my Leica 8x20s. They are the only binoculars I've looked through which give a view as sharp as what I get in my 3.5" f/14 refractor...
Well, if I stick my Meade 18mm SWA into my 480mm f/6.2 SV AT1010 I can get a 26x78 with a 2.4° field of view. But about 50% out from center the views starts...
Fred- I was quite concerned about your Burgess Binocular 8X42 as a result of a couple of things that you noted in your evaluation and final opinion. A red flag...
Bill: Thanks for input; I'll pass the info on to the seller for comment. One point; the image smear I referred to was not due to handling (scratched or dirty...

Specs on these two are exactly the same on the Optics Planet web site. Are they? The price isn`t the same. Looking to feed the fever one last time ( Ya...
When you have the inclination, try a pair from him via High Point Scientific, Astronomics or, better yet, Bill himself (1-865-769-8777) and THEN see if he and...
I was just looking at these two models, leaning towards the Oberwerks. Not only do they have the same specs, but they look EXACTLY the same. I'm planning on...
