The Zen Ray 7x36 features a Fast Focus wheel offering a 30% increase in focusing speed. I ordered a different brand binoc recently which I am returning, because the focus is too fast for my liking. It's back n' forth, back n' forth, until I get it perfectly focused and I hate that. My other two binocs (Leica and Zeiss) have a considerable amount of travel while still in focus. The Zen Ray 7x36 keeps popping up in my wish list but always thought they might be "too long" to be considered a mid-size binoc. But if it is a "fast focus" like the one I'm returning, I'll cross it off my list.
So for those that have the 7x36 EDII, what are your true thoughts about how the Fast Focus wheel works? Thanks.

Hey TP, I have ZenRay on my facebook page and did a little search on their page and found a review given by a customer. It is pretty in depth, and hits on focus.
One thing I did Not know, is that Zen glass is made in China :bash:
I did know the company is out of Portland though. In regards to our current economy, I personally would have to think very hard before I gave any money to China. If I found a close comparison by a U.S. Company I would buy Made In U.S.
Anyways here is a link for you to read.
