That was an analogy to illustrate the point that the OEM2 you show wouldn't be a practical choice for carrying with you all day in the field, like you would do with the typical pair of binos.  I'm sure it's great for stationary viewing out your window as you show, as well as the novelty of owning something so unique.

I am not trying to make you angry, and I'm not in any way "trashing" you.  I was only disagreeing with your premise that the OEM2 would make a good "use anywhere," portable bino because of its size and weight.  If you think I'm "trashing" you, then either there is a language barrier, or you are, in fact, easily angered.

I will no longer offer my advise to prospective binocular and spotting scope users until this lunatic is removed from this board.
