Eyepieces for MM3 GA (non ED)
Hi all, I've found myself in possession of (which, reading back over it, makes me sound as though I'm a bailiff...) an Opticron MM3 GA (non-ED), body only. I don't use a scope very much but can see how a small lightweight unit could be useful - I've already thought of a couple of jobs for it... -

Need lens covers or lens caps for my Traveller BGA 8x32
Just purchased a lightly used Traveller BGA 8x32 for a reasonable price and initial impressions are seriously favorable. These are lovely little binoculars. Only one minor issue - the seller didn't supply me with either rubber covers (for the objectives) or lens caps (for the oculars). I'm... -

Best mid-range flat field bino? (and where to buy in EU)
Hi, folks! I'm looking for a sub-€800, 10x42 pair of binoculars with flat field technology, but I have no chance to try them out in my country. Okay, this is not entirely true, because there are Monarch HGs around, but they are too expensive, and I was unable to find a used piece. Right now I...- Tatanka88

77mm Eyepiece Magnification
I have the MM3 50mm HD and the MM4 60mm Opticron scopes and am considering adding the MM4 77mm. I’d like to understand the magnification of the various eyepieces available to me. Some are clear and easily found, such as the SDL2 (40936) and SDL3 (41270) where I understand the magnification...
