    I got the Vortex a few years ago. Guy at Cabela's gave me a deal and I cannot remember why but they marked them down quite a bit. Just before last season they stopped ranging. Called Vortex, immediate service with return shipping label. Told them it was really bad timing as I needed a repair or replacement in a few days since I was leaving out of state for a hunt. Not kidding, they shipped me a new replacement the day they received mine. There's no way they even had time to check them out. I called them when I received the new bino/range finder and asked what the issue was with my original. Answer - "didn't work."
    That is by far the fastest I've ever seen any company honor their warranty. They will continue to get my business.

    We recently reviewed the Hawke Frontier LRF 10x42 and 8x42 and really were impressed by the product. The 8x42 fit perfectly in the Sitka Gear Flash Optics Harness and the 10x42 fit well in the Marsupial enclosed bino chest pack. The weight was fine on both products. We did add a third party tripod adapter for extended glassing, which worked well. I have been a Hawke fan for several years now because of the clarity of the glass. I have never had an issue with a warranty return/replacement and their customer service is top notch. Great review!!

    I actually have the Leupold that you shared. I’ve had it for a year or so with no problems. Living on the coast of Cape Cod, we do get the occasional dense fog, and it will struggle at times with ranging. Thanks for sharing your experience, be well my friends.

    Back in the days the only LRF was leica. It was $2,300 which was very expensive at the time. Years later Zeis came out with theirs, then swabro, and the rest after that. I still use my leica I bought 20 or more years ago. Nice review.

    Hi Robbie an Adrian. Those are nice binos. Im still using 30+year old binos and a range finder. The range finder has that bow function which I feel should be on all rangefinders and binos. If I were to get new bino, it would have that function. To bad only Leopold has it and non of the others.

      I feel like they all likely have that built in to the line of sight vs angular distance, but it’s just not called that.

    great detailed review, doing testing in fog and poor condition was great.
    what were your favorites?

    • @ReviewThisThing
      @ReviewThisThing  18 днів тому +1

      Thank you! It’s a super hard call. I really do like the arrangement of the Hawke focus and buttons a lot. I also like how compact the others are, though. I’m sure that still didn’t answer, but I go back and forth.

    I have the vortex fury for 2 yrs nothing but problems so far. Focus didn't work, sent them back . Repaired them some what but weren't right. Failed first time out looking for sheep. Called vortex they apologized and sent a new pair. So far so good but haven't taken them out yet.

    • @ReviewThisThing
      @ReviewThisThing  15 днів тому

      Dang. We’ve tested two pair and both have done great. Let us know how these go.

      @ReviewThisThing I can say this the first pair I looked thru was a hunters that we ran into looking for sheep. They were great. The ones I bought not so much. The replacement pair are decent so far but not like the first pair I looked thru . I would say below average glass for hd glass.

      @carlbunner5515 that’s odd.

    I've never understood why they go with 10x42, for us guys who actually hunt....those extra 5 or 10 minutes of useable light are vital. 10x50 or 8x42 is the way to go. They need to stop letting office secretaries design the optics
