I had the first opportunity to use the Burgess bino with Siebert 1.6x adapter and stock 20mm EP yesterday after sorting out the setup problems (reversion to shorter original Vixen 2" focuser tube adapter helped).
I think I am getting hooked on binoviewing.
There was one annoyance: scrolling the sky, at times there was a "star" of noticeable "magnitude" traveling across the field at different speed and trajectory than the star "background". Of course it was dependent on the direction of the scope move. What it could be, a reflection somewhere ?
Also, how can I measure in some simple way what effective mag. factor I am getting ?
