The optics of the binoculars are superb (what else would you expect from Meade?). The overall feel of the binoculars is heavy, but not too heavy. In other words, it is built like you would want your car built--like a tank. This is a very easy devise to...
A great second generation camera/binocular combo that meets my expectations
Could use stabilization for camera alone or both bino/camera. Also, better battery holder
