Star flare in binoculars
Hi,
I recently obtained a pair of Pentax 10x50 SP WP binos. Upon testing them over the past two nights, I noticed that the brighter stars had a noticeable flare or spiking to them. I wonder if there is something wrong with the binos or is this cause the seeing was bad that night. It's been quite windy the past two nights. Also, is it possible that if my eyes are tired, the flaring can happen? I had some Nikon Aculons which I swapped for these and I didn't notice this flaring as much. But the n ights which I took out the Nikons were not windy.
