    Great Binoculars
  

*by M***O on Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2012*

This is a great product, it was smaller than I expected. It does a great job, very clear and light gathering. I like the way the variable zoom works, it is a knob just in front of the focus knob and works the same way. You are not looking for another lever to operate with your thumb just zoom and if needed refocus one simple move.Being lighter it can be a little difficult to hold at full 16x zoom, I find myself bracing my elbows on anything that is handy to hold it still. I looked at Nikon's, Bushnell and many others but this pair had great reviews and a very reasonable price I can see why now.If you want a wider view angle and bigger pair Nikon makes a good zoom at 10-20 power I can't hold binoculars still at 20 power and find 16x just about the max you can hand hold.If you have big hands - these maybe to small for you, I like them because they fit well in my hands and are very unobtrusive, when you use them its not like your staring at something obvious.Hunters - I would pass and get a bigger pair - water proofBut for casual viewing checking out something you want to see better - these fit the bill.

    A surprisingly good piece of glass for the money
  

*by A***W on Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2012*

This is one surprisingly good binocular for well under $100Good optics (not in the league of German $2000 glass, but somewhat close)Well designed, easy to focus, easy to zoom and easy to adjust diopter for eye differential, it does not get a lot better than this.It also has pretty fairly close focusing capabilities, considering its magnification range (8-16x).Also fairly bright considering its reduced size. I have occasionally used at night with passably good results.It loses one star primarily for two reasons:1- In spite of its fine Japanese heritage (in engineering) it also, regrettably, reveals its Chinese heritage in the manufacture.  My unit came with one of the oculars poorly assembled and at the beginning I noticed that it did not maintain the diopter settingconsistently. Once I figured the problem, I unscrewed the ocular and quickly and easily corrected the problem. Just plain sloppy assembly.2- This binocular has a very limited field angle, noticeably less than units of similar size and magnification power. Definitely not good for sporting events or other activities requiring a wide field of view.

    Excellent controls, distorted optics
  

*by C***M on Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2013*

I really wanted to like this pair of binoculars - they look good, are lightweight and compact, and the focus & zoom controls are very easy to use.  The focus and zoom dials are next to each other on top of the binocs, making it easy to zoom & adjust on an image (unlike some zoom binocs which have the zoom adjust on the eyepiece).  The diopter adjuster was also quite good:  situated behind the zoom control, the diopter adjuster pops out when needed, then pops back in when you don't.  I especially liked how smooth & easy the adjustment dials turned.  As one should expect form binocs with a small objective lens, the field of view is fairly narrow, and when zoomed all the way in, the image darkens.In the field, the optics proved to be less than satisfactory:  while the images were fairly sharp at 8x-12x zoom, when I panned over a scene, there was a sort of "bending" distortion.  When I held the binocs steady on an object, I didn't at first notice the distortion;  once I became aware of it after panning, I did notice it more and more, even while holding the binocs still.  (Distortion like that isn't so good for my stomach...)All in all, these are decent, compact binocs with excellent controls and fairly sharp imaging.  If you want quality optics, however, you probably need to spend a bit more $$$.
