Ah, so your objection is to the style and location of the diopter adjustment. At first I thought you couldn't find it hidden in the focusing knob.
Lol.

I went and bought another!
Hope its as good as the one I have on hand.

The second pair might actually be a hair sharper than the first. SteveC was able to get some resolution scores from Leupold that I hope he shares. Exceptionally sharp center of field performance and very good apparent brightness. The focusing knob on the second unit is faster/smoother than the first. No stick-ion whatsoever.
I just got a Monarch 7 8x30 yesterday from BF member PhilR. Initial impressions between the two are sort of like being a judge in a championship fight between two skilled contenders, neither of which is able to knock the other one down. Close your eyes and grab one and head out the door to watch stuff...it really matters not which one you grab. :t:
If that is the case, I'll take the Leupold every time.
I actually bought a second unit from B and H at the same time as the Nikon M7. I wanted to check quality control and also found that my significant other actually enjoyed using the first pair.

That is too bad, but maybe a continent and an ocean may complicate matters. I'd say call them, but that distance might make it tyough too.Well, Leupold is still in the backseat of my car.....I sent them an e-mail some months ago asking if it is possible to fix my McKinley 8x42 to get it usable down to at least -20°C and how much it would cost but never got an answer from them....
Vortex is also sitting comfortly together with Leupold, they never replied either on a question concerning sub zero performance on their binoculars....
That´s customer support....;-)
Steve C, others, how does the new Leup. Mojave 8x32 compare in optical quality with 8x32/33 glasses of the Kowa Genesis, Meopta (Euro) HD and Zeiss Conquest HD class - in specific aspects like sharpness? Appreciate comments even from memory, not necess. from a "side by side" test. Thanks.
