There are always those two colors and I have never yet seen a binocular without some CA.My 8x32 SV is indeed about the same as the 8x32 FL, although the FL can hide some CA in the fuzzy edges and maybe that makes it look better to some.MarkPS: I just reconfirmed this with 5 binos and a scope--and I'm not doing it again. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /> I'm expecting Loons any day now so I'm off to see them.</blockquote>
