[QUOTE="pete_gamby, post: 3519286, member: 76050"] Just to clarify: MM3 is weather-proof but is NOT nitrogen-filled and sealed so if it gets a proper soaking and is left with moisture on it, that can seep into the scope (as seen from the post by Joe.S above). MM4 is very definitely nitrogen-filled and sealed so therefore waterproof and fog proof. Sorry there has been confusion over this but hope the statements above clarify the situation. This change plus an improvement in the optical system to deliver marginally better brightness and sharpness are the reasons for the small increase in SRP. Stock should be with our UK dealers this weekend with US and European deliveries following shortly after. HTH Cheers, Pete [/QUOTE]
