worth checking out Edz' recent posts on CN about different binoviewers - see this thread. Quite surprised to read that the Denk standards suffer from prism light cutoff. It dampened my enthusiasm for that unit, which was the one I was going to try next. I might just go back to a basic unit like the WO or perhaps the beefed up version of the budget Chinese binos from Baader. I won't be able to afford anything better for a long time.
Steve, I had a look at the CN thread. Very interesting. Edz is extremely thorough! Perhaps the WO isn't too bad, especially for the money. And I know what you mean about affording anything better for a while. I think the Denk 2's have the same clear aperture as the standards, but I could be wrong on this.
What was it about the BN22 you didn't like?
