Zeiss 8x42 HT Binoculars to be discontinued.

Zeiss 8x42 HT Binoculars are going to be discontinued along with it‘s counterpart the 10x version as well. I don’t know why those two top class binoculars are to be discontinued as  the 8x42 that I bought approx 4 years ago is superb.. The SF version is going to continue to be available.
