Swarovski SLC vs EL vs NL

[brocksw]

Please elaborate? I don't understand

The rolling ball effect doesn't affect most people. It comes from the Field Flattening lens that removes distortion. Zeiss has a similar design in their SF series binos. I think that's the model anyway.

Some people notice it, some don't. Doesn't bother most. I only see it when I pan really fast....like fast enough not to be able to see anything in the FOV. If I pan slow like I do when I'm actually glassing I don't notice it at all.

I never noticed the rolling ball in the EL's or SF's and wasn't really sure what people were talking about.

My Meostar S2 spotter with the 30-60 Wide Angle eyepiece has it bad on 30x. If you pan fast it will take you back to saturday night at the county fair after too many keystone lights.
