I have the Leupold Yosemite BX-1 6x30mm binoculars. They are great optic-wise, not too big and heavy and the price was good too. My kids and I enjoy those binocs for our new bird watching hobby.
The only problem we have are the eyecups. They rotate and extend out but they will not lock or stay in the extended position. A little pressure would make both or one of the eyecups to contract to closed position. While carrying the binoculars around my neck, every time I want to view something, I have to first make sure that the eyecups are extended all the way. I would say 95% of the times they are not.
Is there anything that I am doing wrong or a way to have the eyecups click or lock in the extended position? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
