exit aperture

heavy cumbersome

quick star

"easy to flick them off with your little pinkie finger when you spot something to investigate use cases birdwatching very adaptable being light and easy to focus so very easy to keep up with moving targets often using in low light and image is still really decent as they have good exit pupil 42 8 = 5mm astronomy great for a quick star gaze light enough to not have heart beat twitching you get with heavier binoculars yet they do catch a lot of light so easy to see clearly likes of the beehive andromeda or orion's scabarb"
