The scope looks good, are the objective lens larger ? What price range is the new scope ??

Objective lens on the Vari-Zone is 32mm and the Lumi-Zone it's 40mm.

The scope is a little larger and a bit heavier. From what I heard, the new bow's and scope were available to look at but not for sale at the Sportsmen Show.

The bows weren't for sale at the show but the LumiZone scopes were. They could be had for $169, no tax. Almost bought one. Went with the VariZone instead.

$169 no tax would have been a good deal. I paid $164.99 plus tax.

I have a question: Since the objective is bigger, will the Dan Miller mount still work or will you see the mount in the scope. Also, Bowhunter SuperStore has the Lumi-Zone for $119.95.

Rich,you have to remember that these numbers being quoted are in Canuckbucks,and the Bowhunter price is in US funds!
$119.95 would work out to be $144 Canadian,plus shipping.
That is still a slightly better deal,as I paid $165 for a new Lumizone at the same show.(taxes included)
You and I both have Varizones for sale on the trading post.
They are still a great scope,but the Lumizone seems to me offer an improved version,of course at an increased price.
You get what you pay for!
