I agree there are things in Allbinos's ratings that don't have much to do with what I think makes a good binocular, but with those caveats, with which I have become familiar, I find the review thorough and useful, although shy in the subjective "ok now let's look through it" department. I realize Arek is trying to eliminate subjectivity: honorable, but still leaving important things unsaid. But I am happy for him personally--how happy he must be with the Swarovision! It meets his personal edge infatuations so perfectly. Even the HT doesn't stand a chance now, no matter how well you can see through it! But I suppose he is obligated to measure the transmission....
I don't think a defective unit should be forgiven. Like, so I murdered somebody, but I'm basically a nice guy, I was just having a bad hair day, it almost NEVER happens. Some innocent little old lady with 20/12 vision, or I myself, or even you, might buy that binocular and just suffer along with it, never feeling it was quite right. Get 'em, Arek.
As for Dennis, I actually rather like Dr. Jekyll, and Mr. Hyde is a hoot and a half!
