Same here Geoff, and this applies in my case for the whole Ethos series.

Hi all,

Read mine and Gary Kopff's comments in this thread.

We actually had one of the 14mm ES prototypes at Coonabarabran in May. It was very good optically and very close to the 13mm ETHOS. Unfortunately it's a good bit larger, being the size and weight of a beer keg, not a beer can.

Cheers,
