    “Lost Track” Comforting feeling isn’t it. 80% of the reason I preordered these with Doug was for this exact feature. Needless to say I’m disappointed. The other 19% has disappointed as well. Hard to read display, slow to wake up, Bluetooth connection issues, poor manual, focus knob, etc. The...

    Rangefinder binoculars, are they worth it?

    There are more benefits than just optical magnification and distance to target. Depending on the manufacturer/model you can also get ballistics, air temp when your curious, remote markers (I use this for checking land ownership from a distance, or marking POIs from a distance to check out...

    Glassing comfort while looking like an idiot

    This is something I discovered on my Colorado trip last year. It was cold and windy and and my eyes were bothered by the cold wind. So much so I couldn’t use my spotter effectively because my eye was watering too much from the cold wind. There was nothing I could do to keep my eye from...

    My thoughts on the current alpha rangefinding binos (Zeiss Victory RF, Leica 3200.com, Swarovski El Range)

    Lately I’ve been using the two rangefinder method. I get redundant range finders in case one fails and the 3x power has amazing FOV at 100 yards. Plus with my lazy eye I can look forward and 90 degrees to the right at the same time. I’ve found at angles greater than 75 degrees the lasers don’t...

    Leica Ballistics App

    Check your phone settings and make sure your phone isn’t connected to the binos via Bluetooth. You need to connect to the binos through the app only. The binos can only be connected to one Bluetooth at a time and your phone may be connecting when the app is not in use. I had this problem and...

    Gitzo Traveler Series 1 Tripod Thoughts

    I have never used a Slik tripod but they are popular on RS. What is it you want to use it for? Glassing or photography???

    Gitzo Traveler Series 1 Tripod Thoughts

    Not at the moment. I found a purpose for it. My only point was it’s not as stable as it’s big brothers but there is added weight as well. My statement comes from experience using both. I would never use the series 1 as a primary, but it can be useful as a secondary.

    Gitzo Traveler Series 1 Tripod Thoughts

    FWIW I have the mountaineer series 3 and love it. I wanted something smaller for travel and lighter loads. I purchased the traveler series 1 and it seems like a flimsy toy compared to the mountaineer. I’ll keep it for light non critical loads. The vibration is too much to handle after getting...

    Must have for cleaning optics

    Anyone ever use a camera shop and have them professionally cleaned? I would think they have the tools/chemicals to do the job right. I’m thinking of doing this before the big hunt this year unless someone advises against it???

    I'm glad you asked. I've been meaning to post about this for a while but haven't got around to it. I found the below YouTube video on how to calibrate the compass. I was doing it wrong, I was holding the binos horizontal for the figure 8 movement. Once I switched to vertical motion, the way...
