    Have you contacted Vortex? HawkD, I'd be really interested to know if you ever contacted Vortex directly in regard to this problem and what their response was.

    Vortex Razor

    You should definitely call Vortex. They have a no-fault guarantee and I'm sure would do something about the focus knob if you let them know. I mentioned earlier that mine was not as smooth as other bins but it certainly is not as bad as you describe. It's not even difficult to turn; it's...

    Vortex Razor

    My New Vortex Razors I received my new Vortex Razors (8x) yesterday and have spent about an hour with them. I’m very pleased with my purchase ($700) and expect that they will serve my birding needs admirably. My initial impressions follow: The view is bright and the focus is sharp with...

    Pentax binos reviews

    Cornell U: An Unbiased Review site

    Bino reviews The Cornell review article may not have been scientifically rigorous but if I'm in the market for binoculars, I want as much information as possible. In their review process they let a lot of people look through a lot of binoculars and found out what they thought. I may not agree...

    Pentax dcf SP

    Pentax DCF SP vs older DCF WP I have two questions regarding the Pentax DCF series. First, I have been very pleased with my DCF WPs but recently the dioptre seems out of adjustment. I now have to turn it all the way clockwise and the right eye is still just enough out of focus to be annoying...
