[QUOTE="Steve C, post: 1715728, member: 56622"] Hmm...That thread was from some time ago. I had ordered a set of the ED glass and it came marked as the non ED glass. The weight was one way Swift information said the two could be separated. Swift said my serial number indicated ED glass. If yours is marked properly, the ED is supposed to have black rubber armor with a red embedded logo. The non ED is supposed to have gray armor and a yellow embedded logo. I had the feeling that something happened in the manufacturing of a run of binoculars and I got the impression nobody really knew what happened. Swift was pretty cooperative with me and even sent me a letter confirming ED glass based on serial number. I wound up returning through the dealer for a refund since I did not like the diameter of the ocular assembly. So for what yours is, if there is a question, call Swift would be my suggestion.
