  • Love These Glasses
Size: 8x42
We were instantly amazed by the clarity and amount of light that gets through these glasses. These are the real thing. Look no further. If you used cheaper binoculars all of your life, you are entering a new world of vision.

  • High quality at mid-range price
Size: 8x42
Why did you pick this product vs others?: High quality at midrange price not excessively expensive for bird watching and vacations.

  • Glad I Bought These Binoculars
Size: 8x42
Item was exactly as described, arrived as indicated. The quality and functionality of these binoculars are terrific! The instructions for adjusting focus for each eye were clear and concise. Price was great!

  • It’s a keeper!
Size: 8x42
I did a lot of research. This was a top choice from NY Times Wirecutter review of birding binoculars. I bought a few diff pairs to compare. This was the least expensive but was just as good as the almost $500 Nikon Monarch 7. At first I thought maybe it was too big for my small women’s hands, but after using it the last few days I’m very happy with my choice. The clarity is amazing, it feels comfortable in my hands and very easy to adjust. ... show more

  • Clear Optics, But Slight Black Borders at Times
Size: 8x42
These binoculars offer crystal-clear views with impressive sharpness and brightness. The ED glass really enhances the clarity, making them great for birdwatching and outdoor use. They feel well-built and comfortable to hold, and the focus adjustment is smooth and precise. However, I occasionally notice a black border in my field of view. It might be due to my positioning or the way I’m using them, but it can be a bit distracting at times. Adjusting the eye relief and interpupillary distance helps reduce the issue. Overall, they’re a fantastic pair of binoculars with excellent optics—just be mindful of getting the positioning right for the best experience! ... show more
