Hi. I don't remember being really surpised by the weight of a binocular. Are there any surprises out there? Another way of asking this is have you ever picked up a pair of 20x70s and thought wow, these feel like 7x35s.
I like grab and go for binoculars, otherwise if I'm setting up, I may as well set up a scope. So hand held use is important (but a parallel bino mount is not out of the question for future either).
I guess 30 magnification would be nice too if it meant throwing saturn's rings in the realm, that would take steadiness I know, not just light weight, but I hope you get the picture of what I'm after here?
Thanks,
TomL
