Swarovski Modular Spotting Scope
 

I have been interested in the new Swarovski modular system. I really like the ability to break down the scope for packing and storage purposes. However, the starting price at +/- $3000 for the 65 mm objective and +/- $4000 for the 95 mm is pretty steep. Does anybody know if other manufacturers are planning to follow suit and create modular systems? Does Vortex, Zeiss, Leica, Kowa, etc..... currently have plans to come out with similar systems?
