Last week I bought (another) new pair of Razor 8x42s, and was delighted to find that they were Made in Japan - new/old stock from Amazon at £553. I really like these bins, despite some issues with glare and a relatively small field of view. However, when I took off my specs and looked at some flowers through them ( the view appeared even better ), I noticed a couple of hundred tiny dots through each lens. The lenses are clean, so it's not dust, and I can't focus them out of the view. Interestingly, when I move the bins off-axis, I get a partial black-out and then they look like hundreds of little stars against the night sky, with little "tails" like comets, which makes me suspect that they are air bubbles within one/some of the lenses on each side. Fortunately, this is not visible with my specs on and doesn't effect the otherwise, excellent view, so it doesn't actually bother me, but it does make me wonder about the quality of some of the glass inside !
Has anyone else experienced this with their Razors ?
