Thanks for your responses.
Daniel, Amazon has them for $160.00. I already have 9x63 so 70mm wouldn't be much of an advantage. I really did want 80mm objectives. I have the fainter range covered with my 12" LX200.
Brian, I am getting a bigger telescope made for DSO and that will enable me to get down to about 165-170. I don't mind the weight as I will only be using them for short periods of time and I do have a really good solid camera tripod.
I have read a couple of reviews on the Barska 20x80 and people mentioned the importance of checking alignment.
Thanks again
