Hinge, focus, and diopter motion secure with no play. Easy-to-adjust pedestal stays secure along center bar. Fully multi-coated.. Lens and prism paler blue reflections, however, indicate possible single-coatings on some surfaces Optics (daytime): Very bright images. Moderate pincushioning. Very well color-corrected. Minimal off-focus purple fringing. Optics (nighttime) No astigmatism. Pinpoint star images out to 80% of field. Negligable false color at edge of moon.
Pros: Lightweight, adequate field of view
Cons: Needs mounting! Some plastic but durable
