Vortex Fury binos, one barrel is brighter than the other...

[Sundodger]

Anyone else run into this?

Been playing with my Fury Bino for a bit now, trying to figure out what seems so off, and finally figured out the left barrel is much brighter than the right, as well as the colors seem off on the right.

It does show up a bit in photos with my old phone, but only a fraction of what it's like to my eye.

Mine are the same, I believe its because the display for the range is in the right eye. Its likely a film on the lense that can reflect the display back so you can see it.

I have a non-ab set of fury's Ive had for several years and never noticed. Im tempted not to look. Guessing that^^ is correct.

Interesting, if that's the case I am surprised more people/reviews don't talk about it for Furys or other range finding binos.

Ignorance is bliss, that might be the smartest plan. If I am honest, I am pretty sure this difference between the two barrels is what has been driving my brain nuts with these binos.

Its weird, I dont normally notice it, I usually have to look for it, and maybe only notice it when closing one eye. Hasnt bothered me but I could see it bothering some people.

They have a lifetime warranty and you will use it if you use your binoculars much I know this from personal experience. Good luck I bit the bullet after sending mine in a few times cried once and bought Swarovski.

Im comparing mine now—I cannot see a difference between left and right lens.
I use mine all the time for hunting, prs and general bino, I wouldnt say I abuse them but certainly not “gentle” use. Purchased in august 2020, been ok since. Ive used warranty on other vortex products as well as other brands but these have been great for me. Given the price and warranty I would buy them again for any non-critical use.
