The contraption that comes with the 8.5x42 EL of 2008 vintage just continues to amaze me, what a cheap piece of junk on such a fine binocular - Leica is miles ahead. I am talking about both the objective and the eyepiece side. I've dealt with the eyepiece but the 42mm objective needs a better cap. The one that comes with it continuously opens due to no tension. It's something that belongs on a kids cheap binocular.
There has to be a better product. Ideally the same design but better built with more tension. something heavy duty.
Maybe something similar to a rifle scope. Where the rigid plastic just pops open and doesn't even come off by itself.
