Man, that Obererk bt100 looks like a fine instrument. I wish I had the $2000 to spend on it!
Dannat: The signature 22x85 is certainly attractive. Especially if the advertised power and aperture is accurate (I also read some of edZ's articles on the inaccuracies of these advertised values over at cloudynights). But they are unfortunately out of my price range. The extra money for the binocular I could do, but their sheer weight would necessitate a new mount as well.
So, if the eyepieces are fixed, does that mean I'll be screwing the nebula filter on outside of the eyepiece? Or would it go in between the body of the binocular and the eyepiece? If it's the former, I would think you'd run into problems with the filter getting dirty fairly quickly (eyelashes touching it, dust, etc)
