It's been about two weeks since I bought my Victory FL 7x42's and something I did not notice initially has reveled itself.
There seems to be a circular reflection around the edge of the image in the right barrel only. Guessing it's some sort of glare off the objective or rim of the eyepiece - I really have no idea, but after careful checking it appears in the right barrel only.
It's distracting and annoying me more and more. I cannot see anything internally that might be causing it. I do wear glasses, and the prescription in my right eye is such that it has a tendency to make things look slightly more constricted than the left eye (if that makes any sense). I forget now what the doctor referred to this as, but I wonder if it might be a factor? Probably not since I have no such problem with my SLC WB or HT's although those are both 8x bins.
Not sure if I'm looking at a genuine defect (kind of doubt it), or something cause by the nature of this bin and my eyes.
Any thoughts or similar observations from other 7x42 FL owners?
