Dennis, You have described a long list of woes that have befallen you and your encounters with binoculars. However, with the exception of the binoculars that come to your house and mysteriously ejaculate grease, it seems that the primary problem you have is with yourself.
Reference your comments about Swarovski focusers. Have you ever considered that their consistent 'funky' behavior is actually an artifact of intentional design, material, and manufacture? You may not like the feel of their focuser, but thats not a flaw in the product. Take, for example, the Habicht 7x42 that you've been mentioning as of late... In your first go round with that one 5 years ago, you slammed it for poor eye relief, stiff focuser, and an exceedingly narrow field of view. Then, there more recently appeared some mention on the internet of light transmission tests rating that very binocular at the top of the heap. Suddenly, the binocular forum was flooded with effusive comments from a single individual (you), incessantly quoting that measurement in thread after thread, briefly acknowledging, but completely discounting all the potentially negative characteristics of that product. The binocular has remained the same the entire time, and it is the user who has changed. And you might ask yourself what has actually changed?
