While generally tooling about with the 8x50 today it dawned on me that, once immersed in the viewing and enjoying the image quality, any worries about weight and shake had evaporated: by comparison the 8x56 generally leaves me struggling after a while in unstabilized use. This finder has an image quality comparable with a compact telescope: A high contrast and a bright image through use of a multi layer coating. Here the usually larger photo-taking optics are actively corrected by a smaller guiding telescope with a second tracking camera.
