Never heard of Rubinar! Looking on Ebay, nothing in the UK and they seem to hold their value too.

Had some bad experiences and poor results with mirror lenses from quality manufacturers and would not recommend them at all. You cannot compare a quality optical lens to that of a reflective mirror.

I agree, but for economy, weight and compactness they are a good compromise. The one I had years ago was not so bad but I traded it in

Ensinor stuff was mostly very well made and decent IQ. I've also seen them sold for much higher than £45
