For those of you who are contemplating buying a Docter Nobilem 10X50 or a 7X40B/GA (sic, 'cause they don't make it in Nobilem anymore) you can find basically the same thing at www.eurooptics.com/ and I think they still offer the amber filters. Not sure the infrared detection is still available but you can try. They also have some high-end scopes.
