Very useful with binoculars or low power rich-field telescopes. Takes some getting used to, but handy size and useful information for field use. Expensive for what it is, but not unreasonable for this day and time. This is my second copy, but of the new edition, so I must like it! Try it, if you like binoculars or low power scopes.
