Helios apollo 70mm or Helios lightquest 70mm

[Ken82]

Any pros and cons of these two?

Steve Tonkin (binocularsky) has a Lightquest review somewhere in the pipeline.  (see link)He has already given a review of the Lightquest 10x50 which you could compare with the BA8 10x50 reviews to get some general idea of the differences between the two series.

I'm pretty certain the Lightquests will have better eye relief, and will edge the Apollos's optically but that's guesswork. I'm sure Steve will give some informed comment at some point.

I started with a £100 budget and now up to £420, typical ! Best tell my wife it's only £210

Oooooooo ............I'm not so sure about that Ken! That nice lady in your avatar? It will bounce back at some point thats for sure.

the lightquests look very similar to the Lunt magnesium binos but I see FLO don't have a price for these. I think the weight of the magnesium binos gives a massive advantage !
