[QUOTE="Jon A, post: 165776, member: 319"] Yes, this is often the case. Though, while the tube itself won't make a difference some companies do use completely different optical systems inside the bigger tubes. For example, my 35mm tube IOR has less travel than either of my 30mm tube IORs. All the "stuff" they put in there simply wouldn't fit into a 30mm tube very well, if at all, much less a 1" tube. And it is quite [i]different[/i] optically than they are. In most ways better, but brightness isn't one of them. The 30mm tube that has the larger objective is brighter. [/QUOTE]
