Dunno if these are in the same league as what you are looking at but, I have a pair of Celestron Trailseeker 8x42 phase coated, very bright and clear. Worth checking out the Celestron brand I think.

Taken from the Nisioptics site. NiSi’ s Close-up lens is made of double optical corrective glass with an apochromatic design. It features a muti-nano coating to give advanced resolution and a natural color, with almost no purple/green fringing, both within focus.

Thanks Alan, happy you like. ;)

I think your best results are with your Olympus gear, achromats are ok but no match for a dedicated macro lens Mike. I am thinking of upgrading my G80 for the G9 for macro.

Definitely a wait and see at that price, my mk4 is relatively unused so I’m in no rush to part with said cash for same lens and sensor atm. Top screen gone too.

Could it have been a hawthorn shield bug (Acanthosoma haemorrhoidale) ?

Who reckons it won’t be sub £2k ? Hands up.:wave:
