Outstanding little optic - Brunton LITE-TECH 8x22 Waterproof Monocular

this is my 2nd review of the brunton lite-tech 8x22 monocular. it's truly a shame this extraordinary little optic has gotten such an underserved bad rep. it's true the focus is very limited but beyond that it's a great little monocular. I am blown away everytime I look through it by the high contrast image it provides. three factors combine for the outstanding image, quality lenses, bak-4 prism glass and brunton's remarkable emerald fire multi-coating. the emerald fire coating is enough by itself to recommend a brunton optic and while the brunton lite-tech monocular has no o-rings or nitrogen it's physical durability is remarkable. tough and robust. sure to be a prized collector's item once they're no longer available. I got mine!
