Hey guys, price is not the focus point here. I’m shopping ultravid 10x50’s, SLC 10x42’s and Kowa gennesis 10.5x44. I just talked with Doug from camera land who is a fan of the kowas. My two reservations from buying them are one the adapter stud and two the overall life of Kowa’s. I’m currently running vortex glass (which I absolutely hate) they are 6 years old and when compared to a brand new pair they aren’t even half the quality. I’m sure the kowas are stunning and comparable to alpha glass when brand new but what are some experiences with the overall life of Kowa glass. Do they degrade over time like my vortex glass? I don't want to be upset after 2 or 3 years down the road when the coatings or alignments aren’t holding up.
