Hello everyone!
I wonder if anyone can help me to solve an irritating little problem I have.
I have just received a pair of Bfull binoculars 12 x 50.
The eye caps do not fold back, (for glasses wearers) even though instructions state they do. They're stiff and they won't fold, so that's the first issue. It's no big deal; even though I wear varifocals, I am able to adjust the focus perfectly well for my eyesight...
However, The second issue is that when I use them, there seems to be a crescent shadow that appears, at random, in both eye pieces, which obscures the image. it shifts and sometimes becomes completely circular, as if I'm looking down a tunnel...
I'm not describing it very well, but I am hoping someone recognises the problem, and can help me remedy it?
It seems to disappear if I hold the binoculars away from me a millimetre or so, and don't touch the eye pieces to my face, but that's hardly ideal...
Can anyone add something?
ETA: I noticed just now that if I try to focus on and look at the fogged zone, it disappears... so is it my eyes, or is it a refractional problem with the lens...?Am I talking nonsense?
Very probably!!
