Biggest mistake I see is most people will not focus correctly for thier eyes. They confuse out of focus with clarity, lens quality, and tranfer of photons.
I'll give that an amen.
With regards to the new VX-L, I am hesitant to try it just yet. For the price, I would just as well have a Schmidt & Bender.
The real reason I am hesitant, is because it is just so innovative and such a different design, that it really hasn't had time to prove itself. The thing that worries me, is those hard corners. If a window leaks, for example, where will the leak be 90% of the time....corners.
I love Leupold's product; I think their service is a standard that every company in every industry should benchmark, but I am going to hang fire on the L line for now.
