Kowa 82sv with te9z eye piece

[Jmort1754]

Is it worth 800 bucks?

Is the cronus g2 better at that price range?

Local guy selling one may be able to get it cheaper.

I think the Kowas (TSN line) w/ the fluorite glass are the ones to get and what makes them special. I would think the ED glass on the Cronus G2 is better than the older 82sv. I called the Athlon guys not too long ago and they have a good source on glass, especially for their high end offerings. I would hunt for a used G2 or a TSN
