Can anyone suggest, a decent mid-price bioviewer?
A guy in our club bought the Televue, but that's
too much out of my price range. Anyone purchase
one they like? Thanks

Well, while I own the TeleVue myself, if I were looking into a mid priced binoviewer I would look at the Denkmeier standard ($599?) and the Siebert Black Night ($469? depending on options) I add the question marks, because I am not absolutely certain of the prices, but they should be close. Also, you may need the corrector to go with either of these binos if you are using a Newt or refractor, which adds to the cost. At any rate, both of these binos are getting pretty decent reviews, and they are both Astromart sponsors...always a plus in my book.

Mike,

I have both the Black Night and the Denk Standard. I see no big difference between them. They are both very well made bino's. You can not go wrong with either one, and each company offers a low power corrector.
