(not to confused with Italian - Zeiss ha rilasciato alcune unità di qualità un po 'incerti anonimo su un pubblico ignaro che stanno lavorando gratuitamente come beta tester e gli ispettori qa finali)  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" />Thus it can be hard to highlight a section of text that you want to emphasize - you might use words of plain text within the quoted passage (somewhat counter-intuitively and illogically), underlining, various colours, some combination of the two,  or quite legitimately bold highlighting!   :-OPlease note that bold highlighting is not YELLING! - THIS (IN CAPITALS) IS YELLING!  THIS IS HIGHLIGHTED YELLING!  :eek!:This @#$%^&*! is swearing (potentially in German! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />, as is this  :stuck:  :-@  :storm:  :scribe:Den's highlighting was perfectly valid. Just because someone finds the content of a highlighted passage to be an uncomfortable truth   doesn't mean they are being YELLED AT  ..........  :smoke:It amazes me the amount of cyber ink that is expended by people trying to tell other people what those other people see or experience better than those other people themselves, as if what those other people see or experience is not valid at all. It is! It can also be legitimately different from what people see or experience. Each is what it is.Zeiss clearly has quality problems with the SF. Whether they are confined to early production runs, or ongoing (and to what extent) remains to be seen. I for one find it disconcerting that a random unit, anonymously purchased exhibits such quality problems.Others may (and clearly many do) have zero issues with their units, and that is valid also.IF you get a unit that is fine, THEN happy days, IF NOT, THEN *not* so much ........  |=@|While Zeiss may correct glaring problems, we have seen before that other more grey area issues can be left frustratingly unresolved even after much time and mucking around. For a $2500+ instrument this potential rigmarole is unwarranted and unacceptable!  Buyer Beware!  and  Try Before You Buy!Chosun  :gh:</blockquote>
