I was about to purchase a pair of Quantum 5 binoculars, when I read this in a review -
"Strangely, the view through the eyepieces seemed distant, as if we were looking down a short tunnel".
This was a rather concerning observation to make !
These binoculars were reviewed using the supplied x20 eyepieces ( 20x100 ) - Perhaps someone could advise me... with lower magnifications, would this worrying effect disappear ?
Also, it's a toss-up between the Quantum 5's and the Lunt, APO 16x70's - The Lunt seems to be generally a better quality, but I have until now been favouring those extra objective millimetres. Does anyone have any views on the comparative quality of those two instruments ?
