Good review. My credit card does not allow me to have a $6000 scope unfortunately.
Thanks for the review. I am looking at the 115/BTX over the next few months.
I have the 95/btx and i love it. Unbelievable!!!
This is a great review, thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful!
Great vid
love it! Great review.
Very thorough, in-depth Review! I think my wife might need this for Christmas! Lol
Merry Christmas!
Well crap, I guess I better start saving up for that bad boy. Thanks Cody, great review
Haha worth every penny!
binoviewer: you can use any scope that takes 1.25" astro eyepieces, and mount a pair of binoviewers to it. Saves a lot.
How are they with eyeglasses? Eye relief distance?
if money was not an factor, would you rather have the 65mm and 95mm objectives, or would you just have the one 85mm objective?
I have the stx eye piece with plans to get the btx in the future. I only have the 65mm objective and want a bigger objective but love how light the 65mm is. wondering if the 95mm is that much better/brighter than the 85mm that it would be worth it to buy the 95mm and keep my 65mm. or would be having just the 85mm be sufficient. thanks Cody
mainly glassing for coues and mule deer in the desert.
Hello!Do you have a Swarovski BTX for sale?
we may need Brady to review his 115/BTX setup
Can you phone scope with the btx?
a built in camera would be the cream on the cake.
2019 is dedicated to buying this. What tripod are you using there?
It's an older Manfrotto 055 Aluminum with a Sirui VA-5 head.
Hello! Please tell me how the image quality of this device? The thing is, I need a good high-magnification binocular for bird watching . Please tell me that it would be better Swarovski BTX or binoculars Kowa Prominar 32x82 Highlander? Thanks!
I believe if you compare the BTX/85mm with the 32x82 Highlanders(Flourites lens) you will find that the clarity and resolution of these two pieces are incredibly similar. I have used both extensively with great success. I will say that the biggest difference is going to be in their weight. The BTX is lighter by 7.5 pounds and can also be used with a lighter tripod and head. If you are packing these around there is no optical justification to use the heavier Highlanders. If they are going to be used on a back porch or observation deck I would say the Highlanders with a heavy tripod would be rock solid and would be less affected by the winds and vibration. If I can help you with either of these pieces of optics please feel free to reach out! optics@gohunt.com

goHUNT But still, where will the picture quality be better ?At BTX, the picture will be darker? And how in comparison these two devices with Docter Aspectem? If you choose something from all this , regardless of the weight of the device, what would you advise to buy?
The product is legit, I ran one for two years, they are legit
any word on Swarovski making a Straight BTX? would jump all over that if they did. thanks Cody
This is a common question. I do not believe or have any indication that this will ever happen. The BTX was and is a difficult product to make and have heard no plans to make it straight.
Is it a fixed magnification in combination with btx?
The BTX when coupled with the 65/85mm it is 30X. When matched with the 95mm it is 35X. Remember, when glassing with both eyes open you see more detail. We have always said "glassing with both eyes at 30-35x is like looking through a 40-45x spotter"! Let us know if you have more questions.

I have used this exact model, amazing, and very durable, the eye strain is very minimal for me at least, lots of glassing in Nevada, twothumbs, the aiming device is outta simply amazing,,worth the price.
Cody: do you know if other companies, such as Vortex or Leupold, are interested in bringing a similar product to market at a more affordable price point?
Probably not. This product has been attempted on different levels of glass by other manufacturers overseas. I am not saying it could not or should not be attempted. But it takes the very best in engineering and glass to overcome the obstacles it takes to "split" an image and go through separate eyepieces, through your eyes than to have your brain fuse the 2 images. Essentially, the scope is trying to duplicate bioptic vision. Bioptic is how humans see.
@Joshua Sanford First off this is not a paid video by Swarovski. We sell lots of different optic brands. We are passionate hunters and only sell what we use and trust in the office. Some of the people in the office only use Vortex or Leupold, another person uses Zeiss, one guy loves Leica and then there are some that love Swarovski. We sell and use a ton of different brands and continue to search out unique products/brands that we want to add.
Also, your comment about Swaro being dumb to create a system that is heavy and bulky... that couldn't be further from the truth. Optics are everything on a hunt! You can't hunt what you can't find. So a lot of people search out a glassing system that works best for them, and certain terrain calls for big optics. We know a lot of people that will pack a BTX system deep in the backcountry and just split the weight between their friend. Heavy glass is worth it when you are sitting around looking for that buck or bull of a lifetime in thick terrain.
Hope you had a great weekend!
goHUNT interesting comment. Thanks for sharing.
@@GOHUNT Cody...take a look at a small telescope called Teleview. They make a product similar to the BTX call their BinoView. It was outa my price range and I'm not sure telescopes can stand in for spotters. Interested to know what you think. I just sunk a lot of money into Leica's big spotter but it isnt a BTX. If I managed to sell the Leica and a Leopold I'd sure snatch up the BTX.
Thanks.
Why can't Swarovski make BTXs with further magnification ability?
They sell a 1.7x magnifier for them
@@SigmaBallistics that's like close to 60x already, sounds promising.
Awesome glassing piece. Would love to have but.......cha-ching, cha-ching, cha-ching$$$. This is a purchase of a lifetime item passed down to generations. With products from #vortexoptics and #leupoldoptics I’d save my money with these companies providing comparable items with lifetime warranties. Plus, it’s just cost! High-end hunter. I can spend my money on other items to glass. This item is for producers and film crews that need a tax write off. Great video and thanks for making.
