I have a very narrow interpupillary distance so my questions is. When both barrels are all the way in, is there still enough room in the middle for a tripod adapter or will I have to use a plate?
I highly doubt it based off the view. My Meopta 15x56 show a noticeable amount of distortion on the edges, as is the case with any binocular that doesn't have field flatteners. The only I've looked through with field flatteners are the newer ELs, and their edges are very crisp, unlike any other I've seen.
