The only directions that came with it were a quick guide with specs in different languages. No paper with guarantee info that came with my FL. (Perhaps they are saving paper) Some cleaning paper along with all the lens covers and straps. Other observations, What do owners of the SF or others who have seen it think of the case?....I am a bit perplexed...I don't know what to think, but it looks like a make up kit for a traveling salon,.. it just does..The case from the used 8X32 EDG I recently purchased looks like a purse from the 80s in the disco era, I mean it would fit right in ...Totally useless since the bottom has gaps the size of a silver dollar.. Bought a Zeiss case for the Zeiss terra 8X42 from B&H, and it works perfectly. Enough about the case, out for a view tomorrow....looking forward to it. Its cloudy here tonight, no stargazing.A.W.</blockquote>
