What are your thoughts on them otherwise? |
So far, I love viewing through these more so than my 8 inch DOb. I don't know what it is, but the rich field views and ease of set up make these enticing. The sharpness to the edge is quite good. I think about 80% out and there is slight distortion. The Nikons I had previously had a huge amount of edge distortion from about 60-70% out. These Pentax(with exception of this star flaring issue) are great for using almost the entire field of view. Color is a little bit flatter than with the Nikon Aculons. I'm not sure if that's because these have better color correction?? I'm only new to Binos.
The unperfectly round exit pupil thing weirds me out though. I wonder if this was a bad batch. I couldn't get my hands on the older PCF wp ii model. They are discontinued.
