Better than Revelation 15x70's?

[UTMonkey]

Hi All,

What do you think about these 20x80's? I have a camera tripod that should do the trick so holding them isn't so much a deciding factor (and I do have my 10x25's for wandering around the sky)

20x80's will certainly need a tripod all the time wheras 15x70's can be handheld for very short periods (but only short !):

Are these the same ones ?:

They certainly are (and five quid cheaper!)

I think I will take you shopping with me when I go for my telescope!

Will definately give you some nice views Mark, I enquired as to what type of tripod/head combo I should use with my 20x90's here on the forum, most common quote was, get as good as I could afford, hence the tripod/head cost me far more than the bins!

at 2.7 kgs you will definately need something for the Revalations

"Revelation" is Telescope House's own brand - and so it's always checking the price on their web site as it tends to be (but not always) the cheapest web site for Revelation-branded products.

(don't forget to factor in postage though - since some sites offer free postage)
