Hi all
I have finally purchased a pair of 10x42 EL Swarovision binoculars after saving up for what seems like a lifetime. I am happy and the clarity is excellent compared to the Bushnells that I was using before (although the Bushnells weren't bad).
However as a newbie to Swarovski I have a couple of questions that I hope more experienced users can answer for me:
1. I hear people talking about getting their Swaros serviced. Is there a set time period that a service 'is due' or is it just if the Binocular seems to be showing a deteriorating performance?
2. Should the focus knob feel like their is no resistance, particularly when going one-way, and slightly tighter when going the other way? Don't get me wrong, the freeness of the focus wheel may be a plus point, I just want to make sure this is correct, particularly as I have heard bout a 'focus problem with Swaro's'.
I just thought I'd check these points with you guys.
Thanks for your help and opinions.
cheers
Gary.
