[QUOTE="kristoffer, post: 1565781, member: 67002"] So you have not experienced problems with the small knob, especially in cold weather? If the knob does work good I am very interested in the Zeiss, I really like the idea of a single hinge. Do you know if the dielectric coating is related to when Zeiss changed the carrying case they sent along with the binocular? I saw a Victory 8x20 on Ebay, for a cheap price, where the seller claimed that the price on the Victory increased when they changed the case from cordura to leather, without any other optical changes to the bin. [B][I][B]"last year zeiss decided to no longer offer this binocular with a cordura cloth case and to start offering it with a leather case. They raised the price to $649.99 when they did this. We stepped in and purchased all the remaining inventory of the version with the cloth case. The binoculars are identical, the only change was the case. We are now offering this binocular here on ebay at a very great price. Don't miss out on this great opportunity." [/B][/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
