[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 703709, member: 22335"] Dan, Ever tried it yourself? Ever done exactly as I described above, rotated the scope around and watched the distortion? Distortion is a more accurate word than optical degradation or optical quality and it's probably the word I should have used. Look at your own link - do you really think that what is shown below won't cause any problems with what you see and that the image arrives at your eye appearing absolutely perfect? I'm not saying that there is a lot of distortion but it's definitely there. I never noticed it until I happened to rotate my riflescope one day when checking for optical center, and noticing it convinced me to try and keep my scopes as close to center as I could when using them. I've not tried it on a Zeiss or Swaro or other higher end optic but on a Leupold or Nikon or Burris you will see it. Test it some day when you're bored. [/QUOTE]
