Well, the latest version of the Trinovid came in today (8x42).
The first quick conclusions:
Latest model 2 focuswheel turns against 1.25.
Diameter ocular latest model 21mm against 23mm.
FOV of the latest model is about 10% smaller.
Close focus of the latest model 1.25 meter against 3 meters.
No noticeble brightness difference.
Weight is 83 gram lighter on the latest model.
Exact same height.
OK, to put the cock in the henhouse..... observing the inside focussing mechanisme of the Ultravid, the Ultravid HD and +, the Trinovid in both non and HD version against the latest Trinnie version, leds me to believe the origine of this Trinnie is Kamakura (copy of the Conquest and other top lines of Kamakura).
O o, did I really think outloud??
