Anyway, the ED72 seems to be a very nice scope and attractively priced.

I bought the 72mm for three reasons
1. It comes with no accessories (diagonal, finder, eyepieces) which are pointless if you already have them, or if this is a first scope, it saves money and allows you to buy what you want not what you are given and charged for.
2. I am not a bird watcher but sometimes we go to nature reserves and I wanted a decent scope to allow this. It is great and portable.
3. Fast and simple to use saves getting my larger scopes out and with a baader zoom it can always be in the car
(oh and superb reviews)
I got the ZS66 free when I bought a starlight express camera it was a nice scope, sold a long time back
