My mother, who is 87, needed a new pair of binoculars that she could use for birdwatching that allowed her to find the subject and focus quickly. She really like my older 8x50 power view so I went on your we site and found exactly what she wanted. She loves them and so do I. She really likes the rocker bar focus system. It is easy for her old fingers to manipulate. The large diameter objective lens lets her find her bird much quicker than her old binoculars (a cheap old 7x35 she found at a pawn shop many years ago). Her new binocs are perfect, and the price was what she wanted to pay.

The most surprising thing about these binoculars is the focus mechanism. In the model I used for tens years I had no trouble maintaining focus. They are not too heavy and deliver reasonable images handheld. After ten years of use their optics have been bumped out of line. What more can you expect from a binocular in this price range? I don't think I'll bother having Bushnell reset them. So I am on this site looking for a binocular upgrade. The extra wide field is distorted 2/3's of the way out but when new it is quite crisp in the center. I've used them for birding and stargazing and enjoyed them in both pursuits. Now that I am ready to retire these old lenses I think I will miss the focus mechanism most of all.

All I can say is that in the binoculars I bought ten years ago it still works super and holds the focus better than some other similarly priced center focus wheel type design. So all in all this is a great binocular for the price. It your planning on doing your observing in poor weather these probably won't suit you, although I have taken them out on cold wet days. They fog up and I hold them in front of the air vent in the car for a couple of minutes. It's that or pay a lot more for nitrogen purged glasses. Cheers, Jake...

Not much to dislike - good quality and value.What I liked:- Multi coated optics & Bk7 prisms (borosilicate crown glass)= clear, sharp image.-Large 50mm objectives = good light gathering capability.I have used them for moon- and star-gazing, birdwatching, general outdoor use and have used in the field under even more demanding conditions while on duty in the US Army. They have performed well in all cases.- Image quality. On a par with the Army standard issue "M22" Steiner bino I used when deployed to Anbar Province and Baghdad, Iraq on a US Army Military Transition Team (MiTT) mission in 2006-2007: 7x50 porro-prism watrproof/fogproof fully multi-coated nitrogen-purged bino with a mil-scale reticle. Civilian version sells for $800.00+.- These Bushnells also ... MoreNot much to dislike - good quality and value.What I liked:- Multi coated optics & Bk7 prisms (borosilicate crown glass)= clear, sharp image.-Large 50mm objectives = good light gathering capability.I have used them for moon- and star-gazing, birdwatching, general outdoor use and have used in the field under even more demanding conditions while on duty in the US Army.

Civilian version sells for $800.00+.- These Bushnells also compare favorably with some of the expensive Nikon, Zeiss, Zeiss/Jena, Leica and Hensoldt/Wetzlar binos I have had the opportunity to use during a 24-year career in the US Army. However, I do NOT believe that, for most use, the increase in image quality in those far more expensive binos justifies paying 10 to 20 times the cost of these Bushnells.- Toggle lever focus system. Bushnell calls it "InstaFocus", works well, I have found it precise enough for small focus adjustments once I got used to it. Particulary useful for tracking/identifying moving objects in the field such as ground vehicles, aircraft in flight and personnel moving across terrain at varying distances. I have also found it works exceptionally well for tracking moving animals and birds moving through trees / in flight.- Rubber armor. Covers the entire body of these binoculars = easy to grip even when wet and should serve well to protect optics from damage if they see some rough use.- Wide woven neck strap. Works well for my use, does not dig into neck/shoulders during field carry. For those wanting increased comfort and utility, buy an upgraded strap or even a bino harness system.- Padded nylon case. Suitable for average use, same as what came with some far more expensive Nikons I bought recently. For more protection, I use an aftermarket case that is more water/humidity/dust resistant, better padded and shuts more completely with a zipper. Most of these aftermarket cases, such as the FieldLine tm brand models, are reasonably priced and often come with additional internal and external storage pockets.Other notes:- Minor color fidelity issues (called chromatic aberration) under some conditions & slight image distortion/bluriness at the edges of the field of view. Be aware that routing light through any lens system will cause these conditions, thus they also occur in more expensive binoculars to varying degrees. It is not an indication of any manufacturing or design flaw.-Everything in the center of the field of view is in color-correct crisp focus with no distortion, so I do not find these issues objectionable given the relatively large field of view of 341 feet @ 1000 yards.- Lens covers. The ones that come with binos work well to protect lenses, fit tightly. Problem is they are not attached to bino body, so one could conceivably lose them. I bought lens covers that stay attached to bino - available at Adorama as well as most optics stores and online optics vendors.- Close focus distance is 20 feet. You cannot bring anything into focus that is closer than this. Not a flaw or malfunction, just how Bushnell designed the optics on these particular binoculars. Has not caused any problems as I seldom have had the need to look at anything that is closer than 20 feet. May be an issue for some close-in observation such as may happen in birdwatching, etc...- 5mm exit pupil. Makes prolonged use of this bino easy on the eyes.- 26 oz weight. Among the lighter 10x50 binos you will find (Our family-use Nikon Action Egret 8x40 binos weigh more than these, and they are smaller.) Light enough to be easy to carry for prolonged periods of time. While hiking, walking: if I'm not planning on using them soon, I keep them in my bino case - case on my belt or slung over my shoulder until I need them; easier to carry.- Fold down eyecups and 10mm eye relief allow those who wear glasses to use these easily. I wear glasses but I personally find it easier to remove my glasses before using binos, so I leave the eyecups up.- Right side adjustable diopter. Makes it easy to adjust to your individual eyesight requirements.- Even though these binos are not waterproof or fogproof (ie: not O-ring sealed and dry-nitrogen purged) they have proven to be weather resistant thus far. No internal fogging/moisture buildup during short term use in light rain/drizzle, nor in warm humid conditions or when they went from warm to cold temperatures. However I intentionally do not use them in pouring rain since they are not waterproof and I try to minimize subjecting them to extreme temperature fluctuations.If you do need a waterproof/fog-proof bino, highly recommend the Bushnell Legacy series porro-prism binoculars: 8x42, 10x50 & 10-22x50 zoom. They have the more newly developed BaK4 (Barium Crown Glass) prisms, and two have better close focus (8x42=12ft // 10x50=18 ft). This will likely be my next Adorama bino purchase as Adorama has the absolute best prices on these I have found anywhere - from $ depending on the model - with free shipping in the US!

Bought these for my BF Birthday. He loves them. The case and strap are good quality and keeps it safe. Beware if you arent home during the day as the pkg was send UPS signature required. After the 2nd notice i was resigned to them being returned due to not being home to sign. Luckily I saw my UPS guy on my way home from work and was able to retrieve the package. Would be nice if this was mentioned during ordering, I could've sent them to my place of employment.
I was told that you would really miss out on the scenery in Alaska if you did not have a 10x50 pair of binoculars. Now I barely knew what this meant so I ask the help at BinocularsPlus.com to give me guidance. These were first rate for a novice and they really are a great choice if your primary reason for buying them is for an Alaska cruise. I was glad for the direction that was offered by the company. They did not try to pressure me into a more expensive pair that was beyond my needs.
This is the 3rd review I've written about this purchase (the others must have disappeared into the ether). I'm an avid theatre-goer and sports fan, with cataracts and glaucoma. Excellent, compact theatre glasses are essential (I need to use binoculars even in the front row...it sometimes really freaks out the actors!). I thought my other (high quality) glasses were good...until I used these! They're easy to adjust and so lightweight there's no neck pain even after hours of use. Someone will enjoy a holiday gift of my other binoculars.
Bought for my stepdad, hes an outdoorsy guy and he said they were the best pair hes ever had! And I dont think he was being polite. Hes not afraid to tell me whats up. I know nothing about this type of stuff and he knew this brand. Great buy, good gift everyone was using them on Christmas outdoorsy or not.
I'm just a humble soldier without a huge budget. Took these elk hunting and were exactly what I needed them for. I could see the distances I needed to and in good focus. I'm going to take great care of them, but if an accident were to happen I wouldn't be out a large chunk of money. I plan on keeping them for a long time!
When new, I considered these binoculars to be good value for money. After a while, the pivots for the barrels began to wear out. Now they are worn out to the point of rendering the binoculars almost useless. The pivots do not keep the barrels in place, so they wobble loosely and do not stay aligned, producing a double image. There does not appear to be a way of adjusting the tension in the pivots. I realize that this is a low end product. However, it does have the Bushnell name, which I expect to be of decent quality regardless of the price point. This model does not appear to be in the current Bushnell product line. It is not surprising that they dropped it.
Binoculars didn’t have the wide angle lens. Was not a good viewpoint.
