Hello Everyone,
Have you experienced this shadow issue on the FoV illustrated with a nice figure by Tobias Mennle here: http://www.greatestbinoculars.com/allpages/articles/itsthebaffling.html . Basically, one doesn't get a clear sharply bounded image circle, but the best image circle formed has a deep shadow on the top-left of the image, and the right side boundary is well defined.
I am experiencing this problem with all three of our 8x MHG copies (with very close serial numbers). In my case, the shadow occupies a little more area than what is shown in Tobias's figure, but overall I am finding it in the same position. I wasn't able to overcome the issue completely by varying barrel distances / eye cup settings within reason.
I don't experience this with the 10x MHG, 8x M7, the Maven B2 9x and several other 8x s. So my interest in this problem is piqued, and I wanted to inquire if anyone else has experienced this issue with their bins, and how they solved it.
Any thoughts/advice is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Kumar
