Alright so, I ended up buying the Nikon Monarch 7s in the 10x42. Thought long and hard about the Vortex but went with the Nikons because of my photography equipment and I know the quality. Not disappointed either. Love them. Which brings me to my question: want to go with the nikon camo (6122) but have read so many neg reviews about the clips that attach the binocs to the harness. "Breaking", "flimsy" for example. Has anyone had any real experience with the product.
