Have any of you been able to compare the glass quality between the Ares and Cronus spotting scopes? and your thoughts on price difference?

One thing I'm leaning more towards the Ares is the fact that you can change out the eyepiece to a fix power mil reticle, whereas the Cronus doesn't have that ability.

Also do you think it is worth having the extra magnification of 60power over 45 power for overall use?

I Guess nobody had directly compared these. :\
