[Elecraft] Optivisor?

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

If you saw distortion, you had some defective lenses or a cheap knock-off
"Optivisor". True Optivisors have very high quality lenses. 

I susptect that's why they are significantly more expensive than the other
binocular-type magnifiers. 

I use 4's with no distortion at all.

I went to a local retailer so I could try them all.  I wound up with a DA-3
and an Optiloupe.  It's a fantastic combination for me.  I know a lot of
guys go with a 4x, but to me it caused a lot of distortion.  Remember that
you can buy the optical plates separately so that if you need a couple of
different powers it's not a big deal.
