Check out these binos....really tempting!! Even comes with a tripod and slow motion controls. Same light gathering power as a 5.5inch scope. Pity they aren't 90degree.

Very nice indeed Michael. Hmm 600 queens heads works out about 1000 euro tho.

They ain't cheap, that's for sure.
The other option are the RA-88s which are really nice. www.apogeeinc.com/product.asp?itemid=6&catid=32
Apogee have just brought out the RA-70s shortly and they are significantly cheaper. www.apogeeinc.com/product.asp?itemid=69&catid=32
However, with the Revelations, you do get the mount included also which, for a pair of binos like that, would probably be worth a couple of hundred yoyos anyway.

Jeeezzz, now those are what I've been looking for! Any idea what field of view there is though????, I know that if the FOV is less then about 3degrees or so, even at 20x, you'll have trouble locating a few objects in the night sky, I'd seriously consider these though!!

I think Briano, you mean Lidl! They had them for 2 consecutive years, at the end of November - well, the Skylux was that way, the ETX-70 was only last year. There is no telling if that will happen again, as it could have been an end-of-line, end-of-stock sale to Lidl. But who knows! You could always e-mail them...
