Why not use one 12" mirror for each eye and enjoy the 40% image contrast increase that a true binocular gives.
I'm interested in the phrase 'a true binocular'. Is this meant to imply that a binoviewer doesn't give a 40% increase in image contrast? I have a WO binoviewer and I'm sure it increases image contrast, but I wouldn't like to estimate by how much.
