review! I think it would be helpful to work on the formatting a bit and use the spell-checker. Also, if you're going to use abbreviations, like FOV, let the reader know what it stands for (Field of View). You misused the term FOV a couple times, which can be confusing for the reader.

Tell the reader that a "chromatic aberration" is nothing more than a color distortion caused by the lens improperly focusing the light.

I recognize that you intended to write a review limited to astronomy, but in doing so, did not address other features of the binoucular. Is it waterproof? What accessories come with it? Do they work well? Do the lenses fog when the temperature changes? Are the lenses coated? Multi-coated? Fully multi-coated?

Finally, what are the negatives about this glass? Is there any application where it would not be a good binocular to use?

Anyway, I still think it's a VH write-up, I just think you have the knowledge to make it a bit more complete!

Welcome aboard and write more bino reviews! There aren't enough of us!
