I purchased a pair of Pentax 8x42 DCF-HRII phase coated binoculars in Sept 2004 from Cabelas for about $300.00. I have been very pleased with them and many hunting buddies were impressed with them as well for the amount I paid.They have been used hard in all kinds of weather conditions,been used on over 300 days of hunting,thousands of miles of traveling,desert conditions,and boating on the Atlantic.
Last fall on one of my last days of bowhunting, I packed quickly to meet up with a friend. Being in a hurry I dropped my gear bag which landed upside down on a big rock,and my binocs were damaged. I felt lost without them but wasn't looking forward to buying a new pair. I called Cabelas for any info I could get and they informed me Pentax had a no questions asked warranty, gave me the phone number and address. Pentax told me to send a check for $19.95 along with the binocs to their repair center in Colorado, they would be repaired and shipped back to me. I received them today and they have been repaired to their origional working order, cleaned, and new decals put on them. When I bought them I was not aware of this warranty, but have been completely satisfied with their service and products. Just thought I'd pass this on,when a company keeps their word and backs their product, I like to compliment them.Grizz1

Thanks for the good info grizz. I have a pair of Pentax's also for a lot of years and have been really satisfied with them. Wasn't aware of that warranty either. Good Post.
