[QUOTE="CliveP, post: 3321261, member: 85835"] Good news! I'm getting a replacement courtesy of the very helpful Niki and folks at Viking Optical Centre. Apparently this replacement works perfectly so that will be great. I have to say from what I saw before it went haywire I really liked it a lot and no glare on top of all the other good things I mentioned in the other thread but looking forward to getting a better look with this replacement. Took a few shots while packing the faulty one away to compare alongside my Viking Vistron 8x25. Didn't have a chance to properly compare them with the Vistron but the HD does have very impressive optics and is certainly more compact when folded which I think the photos show well. The Vistron is great also but it would be totally amazing if it had the same quality glass as the HD. One day I hope such a bin will happen as the Vistron is so great to hold and yet still basically compact but until then this HD is the answer for me providing of course all is well with the replacement but I'm assured that it is.
