I just heard all the Dobbers going "Crayford!!!" "Not Crayfish"
You've made my night Mark. Thanks.
(wipes tears from eyes) What brand are the binocs. There are numerous different multicoatings. From what I understand the better ones for night viewing are those with blue or greenish coatings. My understand is that the red ones are for cutting down glare in extremely bright situations, I could be wrong (its happened before
). Not something that happens often at night unless your looking at the moon. If they reflect your image if you look at the objective lenses then this is likely the case. Some brands (mediocre quality ones) often coat their lenses so they look impressive but actually don't do a lot....depends alot on the brand. eg "multicoated" Tasco
multicoated Pentax, Nikon etc (not specifically these brands just an example)
First off what brand are they. Then maybe we can give you some better advice.
