Hi Tasview,

Unfortunately,Ruby coated lenses,tend to be a "Bit of a Gimmick"

From what I have read,(And I am no Expert),they appear to HIDE,some of the Shortcomings,of the Binocular to which they are applied to.

Please check "Cloudy Nights Binocular Forum",

BEFORE, you take MY word.

From what I understand,they tend to REDUCE,actual Brightness,to the eye,in Night Skies.

Probably ok for daytime viewing.

Several years ago,when MAGNIFICATION,was the Primary Objective,I also bought a 10-30x 60 off Ebay.

They,NEVER get used Nowadays.

Regards.
John
