Hi,
I have recently received an online purchase of Canon 12x36 IS iii binocular. Being my first IS bino, this is indeed a very useful feature.
However I wasn't lucky enough to receive a copy without collimation problems, that some older posts on birdforum seem to have mentioned.
It is not an absolute disaster, to have completely two images formed, but it is enough misaligned to cause that unpleasant feeling that makes you not want to look too much time through them and feeling eye strain and discomfort after a while.
Is there a way to try to fix the problem for this model (other than returning)? I wonder if other users had this issue recently.
Thanks
Andy
