When is the upgrade worth paying for?
Move up when it solves a defined problem. Choose higher magnification because you need more visible detail; choose ergonomic prismatic viewing because you want a different viewing posture; choose adjustable working distance because your setup changes.
- A first Galilean pair does not have to be a temporary purchase if it suits your work.
- Prismatic does not automatically mean ergonomic.
- Do not pay for a feature you cannot explain how you will use.
