Forgot to say: I really like the glass on the R2 as it offers a bit better transmission and resolution than its predecessor and edges its way into the alpha category. Its low-light properties are truly excellent. But once I turned on the illumination of the 2.5-15x56 during fairly decent moonlight, I quickly lost interest. Meopta's decision to boost the intensity of the illumination on this one instead of dimming it makes about as much sense as Zeiss dropping its #4 reticle. .
