[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 492892, member: 8"] I have a 5 year old Kowa 82 without Flourite and I would agree with what Sako7STW says about performance. At the extreme ranges the higher quality image of better color helps with the ability to judge small details. Without Flourite. I can judge elk antlers to about 3 miles but only under certain conditions. I use single power eyepieces as the quality of the zoom eyepieces degrades the image. Of course a lot depends upon your natural initial vision and mine is corrected moderately well but certainly not really well. So, as I said before and irritated one optics expert, if you are as blind as a bat then a good quality optic is lost on you anyway. [/QUOTE]
