[QUOTE="sbb, post: 3666259, member: 142454"] Agree with the objective covers. My first Terra 8x42 were terrible as they were too loose and any knocks would release them from the objective lens... However, the second batch of Terra had a tighter fit and that worked better. I still prefer the Swarovski fieldpro objective lens covers as you can replace the objective covers without looking, Plus, they have no edges that can catch and make them come off. I do like the older Zeiss bino bags as they are tight, and one buckle is all that is required to remove a bino. The Swarovskis are a pain as it is a double zip and they are HUGEEEEEE. Like i Mean how hard it is to measure the size of a fully opened bino and make a case for it..... Well I mentioned it to Swarovski last year, this was their reply: Quote ------------------------ On 4 Oct 2017, at 21:13, Customer-Service <customerservice@swarovskioptik.com> wrote: Thanks for your input, Mr. Chin, it´s always difficult to satisfy our customers with the right size of bags.
