    Review: Tract Toric 8x42

    My apologies on the delay of the reply. Truly a thank you for the feedback as we look to communities like this to better assist any user of optics. Its all too often that specifications that should be included fall behind. I'll make sure this gets passed along accordingly. Thanks again...

    Review: Tract Toric 8x42

    Hi James, While we tend to want to agree with the factory and their "fail safe" testing. We have begun to get independent testing done to verify the FOV and make sure everyone knows what the true measurements are expected to be. I'll update as soon as Ive given the confirmation. Trevor TRACT...

    Has Anyone Used the Tract Toric 10X42?

    Hi Bruce, We have a second case in development that will hopefully be ready after testing in the next 3 months. this second case will be a harness style case, so it will have the the shoulder straps for chest carry, but also a nicer fitted full coverage case. Not sure if this is quite what...

    Galapagos trip, check!

    Agreed, was absolutely stunned by its atmosphere and life. Thanks JG! Jerry, Indeed. I have been fascinated by the aviary of the Galapagos for as long as I can remember. My wife and I were lucky enough to view Blue Footed Boobies in various stages from bachelor to mated (including the...

    Galapagos trip, check!

    Hello all, Just returned from what I would call a trip of a lifetime. My wife and I spent 10 days on the Galapagos Islands for our honeymoon. I'm still in awe at the beauty and the species we were able to witness first hand. I'm going to do a write up on my experience there and post it to...

    Your Favourite, Not Your Best, Bins?

    I'll take a little departure from the norm to share mine. If solely going by 'favorite' as criteria, mine would be an old B&L 6x30 that came home with a relative from the second world war. They show age and use and are certainly not in the same league as many others, but the story to me is...

    Has Anyone Used the Tract Toric 10X42?

    Hi Bruce, OPP (in this situation) stands for opening price point. Depending on whom you talk to and the retailer, it can run the gambit of meaning. In TRACTS case, it will be the first tier offering of the most affordable case. Keeping in mind that cut and sew products usually have a 50%+...

    Has Anyone Used the Tract Toric 10X42?

    Hi Bruce, I would say we are happy with the factory and QA commitment to make sure no potential issues arise again. We will, however, take care of any issue that may arise with the upmost respect and as quickly as possible. Case wise, there are two in the works. One of which will be an OPP...

    Has Anyone Used the Tract Toric 10X42?

    HI Bruce, Thank you, I see it was a pretty recent post so I haven't caught up on that thread all the way, ha. Yes, this explains California now. Kamakura does have their US office and repair there. This is our manufacturing facility in Japan along with some other brands. Any potential issue...

    Has Anyone Used the Tract Toric 10X42?

    Hi Bruce, That's interesting, in that we do not have a facility in California. Our offices and warehouse are all in Pennsylvania. I tried searching but could not find this discussion. Can you share if it was on bird forum or another? I personally have not run across any issues with the...

    Tract Toric 8x42 Experience

    Hi Jerry, My experience comes from a tenure at Opticsplanet where I worked with many of the Optics Companies. After which I moved to another company in the outdoors industry (I did not work for Nikon) , at the same time now, working for Tract to help the forum community. I don't dislike any...

    Tract Toric 8x42 Experience

    Here's one example that we have a very close relation to. When the Nikon Prostaff(s) were going through a redesign, higher ups wanted a 'better' LT than anyone else in the same tier. So, to achieve this, sacrifices were made on the lenses. It was much more discussed via forums about with the...

    Tract Toric 8x42 Experience

    Hi Bruce, This one is tough for me. Tract has actually taken a position of not stating LT for some various reasons that I'm sure everyone here already knows. Its no secret that companies inflate them or simply try to achieve higher LT's percentages by reducing the lens', coatings, etc; which...
