Thankyou Brian for the explanation.

I had a look at the WO site to get a look at what you are discussing, very interesting pieces of equipment.

I must admit that I had a look the specs on the scopes in particular the OTA's and they are considerably shorter - in comparison to my scope - so the superior optics are the main selling point (yes) - or am I missing the point. I must admit to get my head around it I compare size of the scopes you are taking about to Bino's eg 50mm (portability) (wow they fit in a back pack!), bear with me here, but with superior optics, and the ability to change eyepieces, focus etc and photography. The finders look even smaller.

Cheers Petra
