    Thanks for clearing that up GT. Not wishing to sound patronising, but I admire people who post here who's first language is not English. However, it can be the source of misunderstanding. Again thanks for clarifying that your problem was not the normal very slight movement in the diopter gauge...

    Exactly. I'd like GT to clear this up too. It could very well just be a misunderstanding, either of his original impression of the problem or his description of it, that will lead to a misconception that the NV might have a problem which it does not.

    Spot on! My comment about the UV diopter gauge moving was just to state the fact clearly that the diopter gauge is locked and therefore rotates with the focus wheel, whereas the NV the diopter gauge is disengaged from the focus wheel when the diopter has been set.

At first I thought I could see no movement at all (it really is that minimal) but then I looked at the sn whilst moving the focus wheel side to side and noticed a very small amount of movement. I would never have noticed anything if it wasn't for GT's problem because...

    I'm not sure I fully understand the problem here. My Noctivids diopter gauge display moves slightly with the focus wheel, but it doesn't affect the focusing or the diopter setting; i.e. the focus has no delay or slack, and the diopter setting doesn't move. To be honest I hadn't even noticed this...
