I'm wondering if there are any reviews of the Nikon binoviewers that have been advertised on astromart recently. I think there converted microscope heads. Bob

I am using a homemade binoviewer using the same type of Nikon
head as the advertised models, and it works very well. I use Nikon
widefield microscope eyepieces, the advertised versions have
adapters for standard eyepieces. The Nikon bino head is a well made
relatively lightweight unit. The mounting flange has a low profile
and may work without a Barlow on some telescopes, depending on how it is
mounted.
