Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen... I formerly worked for Bushnell Div. Of Bausch and Lomb. I was employed there for almost 13 years and was apprenticed to Mr. Al Akin, Senior Engineer. I have not been directly connected with the industry for many years, since they moved to Kansas in fact, but I still have all my notes and a wide store of memories and optical understanding.
Kamakura was in fact one of the primary suppliers for Bushnell optics. They also supplied for many others toward the end of my association with them. I have always suspected that Bushnell lost much of their hold in the market when they lost their primary Research and Development Staff as a result of their move to Kansas.
I would welcome any contact or questions you may have and will try to get to them as quickly as I can, but I have limited access time and can not check e-mail every day. I am sure that there are many of you that would remember me from the Bushnell R&D Department, Tours, Visits, Projects and Birding Trips.
