I wonder if it’s your optic mount. I’ll send you one, if that’s not the issue, send it back, if it is, you pay for it. Deal?

Here guys, this will be my last post on this thread, as I’ll focus on the videos and posts on our SM pages. The 6-bino shootout, in the most fair, representative, open way we could do them. I’ll say, this may have been the most difficult to make video we’ve done, simply because of the amount...

They are both frames from that video. One (the small one) had gone through a FB messenger compression. Nice catch, I thought I had exactly the same file both ways. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Our unit is a pre-production. The only expected differences in ours and serial production though are in the laser. Ours is Euro spec (weaker, by law), is not perfectly centered on the etched reticle (they had to make the pre-pro run before building the alignment tool) and the internal laser...

They are uniquely blue. As I've said like 15 times in this thread, EVERYTHING has a film, and they're all some version of blue/gray, that's just how LRF binos work. For most of them, your eye doesn't naturally detect it, as the eye is an AMAZING thing. But one unit is, well, different.

Just posted this to IG/FB, with the following note: 6-Way LRF Bino Shootout - Coming tomorrow… Note: The hardest part of this video was taking images through the binos. Getting focus, eye relief, full field of view, etc, with cameras, is almost impossible. Also, the ways cameras and our eyes...

Made in Slovakia

There are going to be a limited number of dealers with them initially, with all of us receiving at the same time in June/July. I'm probably missing someone, but we will have them, Euro, maybe Mile High, maybe a couple other of the larger optics houses.

I can't say we did this. Would do 5-10 minutes, talking through what we were seeing, what we were doing, and taking notes so that the videos could be as good as possible. One of us, wether me or Zach or Nathan, will likely end up spending a full day on them this summer at a match or two, though...

When we had them all together, the Swaro still has the best glass. Resolution, brightness, clarity - Swarovski is the glass standard for a reason. The tech side is a bit soft, but damn they make great glass.

We had the new Swaro, new Leica, new Revic, Vortex Fury, and Sig 10k units, alongside these, for 2-3 weeks. ONE unit had a tint that you looked through and went "woah". One unit, the least expensive, had "meh" glass. The other 4 were VERY good. I could likely hand anyone here any of those 4...

With the insight we have into production volumes and plausible demand, I don't think these will be exceptionally hard to get when you decide you want some. Maybe for the first couple months, but by Christmas I think these will be readily available from several sources.

Like we say in the video, ANYTHING with a LRF that displays data has a film on the glass that allows you to cast the image, and the better resolution you want with the displayed data, you either need a stronger emitter, more opacity in the film, or both. It's simply how it works. Casting a...

I take it you've looked through these? These are VERY, VERY different from the Sig. Having had all of the major 10X players side-by-side for a couple weeks, it's not a close comparison at all. I know there will be people that don't believe this no matter what we say, but they are incredibly...

We got to see/hold/play with these for the first time in September of 23, and we've had them again in-house for about a month now, and are really impressed. We think for most people on the Hide, they're the best all-around LRF bino package. Check out our thoughts:
