The main issue with bino-viewers is that they present exactly the same image , including optical errors and atmospheric seeing conditions , to each eye, so much of the brains binocular image processing abilities just aren't utilised. They do however provide eye comfort and portability at a relatively low price. I'm looking into purchasing a Baader Maxbright unit mainly for Solar observing
