Pretty much confirms the top quality that we already know. That such compact models may be less rugged is clear, but no reason to be concerned about for most of us.A new review has been available since Sunday. An interesting read as usual.
Zeiss 10x30 SFL Review

Simple, go over the logo with a black Sharpie Pen, have done it on all my straps. dulls them down nice.Hello,
I see that the SFL neck strap has a very subtle logo. One of the things about Nikon neck straps which I dislike is the large gold logo. I find it naff and an invitation for theft. Of course, that is hardly a strong reason to buy the SFL.
Stay safe,

pretty funny - I thought I was the only one. I have put colored tape over my jackets because I don't want to advertise "Patagonia" or "Mountain Hardwear" everywhere I go. I hate corporate logos.Simple, go over the logo with a black Sharpie Pen, have done it on all my straps. dulls them down nice.

Can you explain your reasoning? My 8x40's have the diopter ring between eyecup and bino. Don't think there's a way pressure on eyecup could affect diopter. Just curious......
One thing i did observe was that the diopter did have a habit of slipping ever so slightly, maybe I shouldn't have rammed them up to my glasses so hard.

Huh... I'm sitting here fiddling with my 8x40's and the eyecups 'seat' with a nice 'click', w/out any perceptible effect at all on diopter ring. Are the 30's different I wonder, or is it manufacturing variations,...? I'm also curious if people change their eyecup setting from extended to fully screwed-in for some reason (storage?)? I set mine once and doneTightening the eyecup can move the diopter.
I use an o-ring on my 8x40s. Sounds like it doesn't happen without the o-ring.Huh...

I'll admit I'm skeptical this is a real 'issue' but I ask sincerely - and am willing to believe evidence to the contrary - because even tho I currently own the 40's, I'm potentially interested in the 30's. If there's something different (other than objective dia) about them, I'd like to know!
Ahhhh... that would make sense!I use an o-ring on my 8x40s. Sounds like it doesn't happen without the o-ring.
exceedingly tight fit of both objective and ocular covers.
Frankly I doubt it's sample variation. Eye-socket and eye-ball variation, definitely.Interesting. I have the SFL 8x30 and haven't particularly noticed this, whereas the exceedingly tight ocular/rain cover on my NL 10x42 is enough that I still curse it. I will pay more attention to my SFL. I wonder if there are different batches / varying tolerances in the production?
