I did a search and found nothing on this monocular. I like how light weight it is.
Does anybody know anything about it? Is it a worth the price?
Thanks,

It is a MACRO scope. In basic english, that means close up. It has my interest because of the name. If you buy a macro camera lens, it is for extreme close ups typicaly of small objects. Say you wanted to take a photo of a ring or tie clasp so you could sell it on E-bay, you would use a macro lens. Now that same lens can be used in the normal manner, but without the same results (objects may apear flater).
Minox has great quality. I would call Minox and see what they tell you. Let us know what they say.
