Agreed, positioning and feel of focuser is perfect and buttery smooth. Probably the smoothest on the market, followed by the Noctivids and the previous available Nikon EDGs.Zeiss positioned the focuser on the SFs in a very smart place. And, it's one of the most wonderful-to-use focusers possible, in the world of fine binoculars.

I, too, would hope that Leica positions their focusers farther from the ocular eyepieces, in future Noctivid offerings.
I know some have complained about the Noctivids focuser position , but I have no issues with it, and I find them to be a very comfortable fit in my hand, as well as the location of the focus wheel. And the smoothness is just like the SF, much improved on the Ultravid line. Many UV owners here, have complained about the stagy or stickiness. I’d like them to be a lighter or smoother, but here again I have no issues them either, probably because of the way they snap right into focus, no hunting, as you well know.
