    Product Review: The Sky Rover Banner Cloud 8 x 42 Binocular

    Thanks. I know nothing about the Sky Rover company, or whatever company is backing them. Do you see it as another potential Zen Ray, or is the Sky Rover company legit?

    which 10x42 : Nikon HG / GPO Passion HD / Maven B1.2 / Vortex Razor HD ?

    That may be true, but the moral to the story is that the buyer's were left hanging and had it not been for Vortex stepping up and taking care of them, they would have been out of luck, and their money.
