[QUOTE="Pileatus, post: 3264186, member: 9609"] Brock, you are deluding yourself. I am well aware of all the issues you've incessantly elevated to DEFCON1 status. Your logic is nonsense. Of course there's some rolling ball that will affect a percentage of users and others will complain about a focus wheel that behaves much better than original Ultravids (I owned one, sampled many and they all were "notchy") but so what? I don't recall a never-ending diatribe from you about Leica's and, trust me,:t:, that was a sticky focus. Lots of Leica owners knew it and still bought and used the binocular. Clearly, you have a beef with Swarovski. I've asked you several pointed questions you conveniently ignore. What more can I say. You want them to produce a product according to your specifications. Many thousands of happy customers disagree with you and they do so with their pocketbooks. Obviously, the issues you want to war about are, to many happy users, non-issues. Or they're just a bunch of dummies not reading your BF posts. PS Arthur and I go back some...he doesn't like the SE; I do. I fully understand and respect his opinion and he mine. You'll notice we never beat our drums or go to war over it. Happy Birding! :hi: [/QUOTE]
