Question for those who seen it in the flesh today - when zooming is it a smooth step-less zoom or is it in stages like the current 4k?

Lefty here, ive just stuck my rifle with Alpex 4k on the sticks and i can’t comfortably turn the battery cover with my left hand while looking through the scope even being a long un at 6’ 3”.
Dissapoonted they didn’t use the top turret making it ambidextrous.
Thats saved me a few quid.
No
Smooth
Interesting. I shot a squirrel the other day with mine at 280yards. I can confirm it wasn't using an air rifle.
4k lite still has front focus doesn’t it??
Yes, I was thinking of zoom. Zoom is the top wheel on the lite

I drove my van on the wet grass yesterday ,its certainly not a WRC /rally car
just because you can doesn't mean it is .....Think he's saying that the alpex lite was designed as a scope for Airguns and maybe rimfire use hence the ridiculously short eye relief .

Anyone who has seen them Both at the show able to just say any likes and dislikes between the nocpix and the Alpex pro? Without brand favour
I looked though them both , I focused in on the longest away part of the building I could and zoomed right in , hic had the better image, but with hundreds of hands been on the d70 the image settings could of been played with ,
the hik side focus is a massive bonus and its lighter , I also prefer the hic app over the nocpix app
Agree with you there, let’s face it & be perfectly honest are any of today’s offerings really that bad, a lot of things that get slagged off are really ok & surely most of it comes down to personal preference.

I am currently writing a DNT 30mm 4K vs Alpex 4K review in the same style as the below two previous ones. Need more time with it though and frankly some dry weather to give it a fair comparison.

I put the Alpex 4k against the DNT Zulus 4k the other night in darkness in admittedly terrible conditions and the Alpex won with a better picture in both IR and non IR. (I'm not in any way saying the Zulus is a bad scope, it's more than capable but the Alpex deffo had the edge).
What concerns me about the Pro is the swapping to an F1.8 lens (same as Zulus) over the Alpex 4k's F1.2. Their advertising it as a "F0.9 equivalent" using algorithms etc, but in reality nothing really beats the light gathering capabilities of a low f-stop lens. We may end up seeing that the Alpex 4k beats out the Pro at night/low light.
Why does this matter, you may ask? Well, it probably doesn't - all these scopes will be capable in their own right, it'll be down to the slight picture and ergonomics differences/preferences of each user.
