    Steiner Binos

    Yep had some for 3 years very good binos you won't be disappointed
    Have they changed the eye focus?
    Each eye had a silly focus that would always self adjust when down your shirt .

    Yep that annoyed the hell out of me on a pair I borrowed once, everytime you pull them out you have to refocus not one but two dials.
    Glass was pretty alright tho.

    It didn't bother me Mikee, but it worried the two German chicks I had staying over
    I told them they were quite safe as I was sure there were no 303s involved
