For the vast majority of the visible spectrum;the reflectance does not vary more than about 0.1% below 100%;And the dielectric surface does not age like aluminum;This combination leads to the equivalent of a little more light grasp compared to standard diagonals
Dielectric diagonal is especially important;A standard aluminized diagonal has about 92% reflectance;And this decreases with time as the aluminum mirror surface ages
