    THIS is how service should be...

    I sent in my Viper HD 10x42(2018 version) last year because its focus knob was really tight. They processed my request very quickly and emailed me a prepaid shipping label.

    Question about binoculars case

    Question about binoculars case

    Thanks for the idea and photo, Dennis. I think I'll try using a bigger case (42mm) and use the method you told me (y) On short hikes, I sometimes bring either 8x42 or 10x42 binoculars. Do you have any suggestions for a good case to carry them in?

    Question about binoculars case

    I use my binoculars mostly for hiking. However, the included neck strap doesn't fit inside the binocular case, which makes it dangle uncomfortably while I hike. Do you experience this issue? If so, how do you manage it? Thanks.
