Dear Richard,
It was not meant as a challenge, but I was curious about your sources (what do you mean by OP??), since what I know from the optics division is, that they are working very hard to produce instruments, and to develop new ones. The problem with the management, if one could call it a problem, is that the owners of the company as a whole with so many family members has rather expanded over the decades and during the years there were quite a few disagreements/challenges/conflicts in that large crowd of family owners about the course of the company (and perhaps also about the conduct of some). For the company as a whole it must be quite a task to keep so many different activities and opinions under one roof.

Hi Gijs, that's just Original Post (or Poster) of the thread, a common abbreviation on forums.(what do you mean by OP??)
A mere $9k USD. I've made due with Canon's reasonably good 10x30 IS for some years but I'm not as big a fan of Japanese optics as European (as my gear list might indicate).Well Stan, what about the Zeiss 20x60?

The new IS Sig Sauers are supposed to be made in the United States and are said to compete with the very best. Sig has the money, marketing and the engineers to do this. They will be available this year(2021).A mere $9k USD.

As has been discussed on another thread, see for example:The new IS Sig Sauers are supposed to be made in the United States and are said to compete with the very best. Sig has the money, marketing and the engineers to do this. They will be available this year(2021).
I should clarify, I was not including Japan in my previous statement.the world is now different and we must adjust
but we still vote with our spending for one to survive, and the others to fail
