[QUOTE="rlipson, post: 51819, member: 296"] Nate, the law of diminishing returns does kick in. the last 10% of performance can be had for a 50% increase in price. Similarly, the true performance gap between a Toyota Camry and a Lexus 300 is not as wide as the price differential. For me, the feel, quality and precision of good glass is magical, and I'm willing to pay for the best. I like the content on betterviewdesired, but if you look closesly, it's not a true independent site. They are "powered by Simpson Optics" which is a retailer. Might be completely objective, but as a researcher I've learned to always trace back where the funding comes from... Ian, any expereience with the Pentax PF80 ED spotting scope? The "betterviewdesired" guy creams over it, and says their variable eyepiece is as good as they get. Roger [/QUOTE]
