Hi

Nikon is a much bigger company, of course, but we have had very few complaints about their service and that says a lot for such a huge corporation. Have no problem recommending Nikon for its service,

The EDG is good too, but I"ve looked through one after owning the regular EL and I personally didn't like the EDG.
Was very nice, but I think I"m used to the feel and look through the glass of the swarovski.

I expect the new EL will be a delight and a pair that will set me for a long time without buyer remorse for better.

There will be other vendors that copy, but I figure if swarovski is my favorite now, more than likely it will still be my favorite once everybody gets the same technology and becomes a true competitor.

I guess My next question June is if you had you hands on them, did you notice any problems with the focus, or diopter adjust?

Seems I remember some issue with the prototype.....

I wonder if you had that same prototype or whether you had an updated version in your hands?
