BushnellH2O Waterproof/Fogproof Compact Roof Prism Binocular

I noticed that these reviews are missing pictures, so I attached some here. As you can see, these are nice and compact (dollar bill for size comparison in pictures), very lightweight, and seem durable. They don't unfold easily, which I like... you don't want the thing folding and unfolding while you're trying to look through them. Also included is a strap, case, lens cleaner, and manual. The strap and case are not top of the line or anything. but they get the job done. As described, the eyecups twist up and down - I included a picture of one eyecup fully extended, the other twisted all the way down.Supposedly, porro prism binos are inherently brighter than roof prism binos. I don't have a set of 8x25 porro prisms to compare these to, so I can't say for sure. I can say that these give a nice, bight, crisp image.Disclaimer, I'm not a bird watcher or any kind of expert on binoculars. This is my first set that I wanted for hiking and hunting. This is a 5-star rating not because they're the most amazing binos on the market, but because they get the job done for a great price. If you're looking for small set of rugged binos, this is a good bet.

For the price I paid, these 8 x 25 binoculars represent an incredibly superb value. They are quite decently sharp, bright enough for daylight use, are very compact, rugged and grippy, come in a nice little soft case, and are perfect for a “spare pair” to put in the glove box of the car or truck. No, they aren’t optically equivalent to units costing up to 10 times more, but they are very pleasing to look through with a reasonably sharp image with some softening at the edges. If they are truly waterproof and fog proof (only time will tell), I will be incredibly impressed. I will report back if I find something to the contrary.

Decent binoculars for the price. Took them elk hunting with a broad spectrum of weather. Most of the sight lines were under 300 yds with occasional vistas. Snow, freezing mist, drizzle then sunny with temps in the teens warming to the 40's. They never fogged up or allowed moisture inside. The field of vision, brightness and clarity are quite good for the price. They felt solid and sturdy without being too heavy. The rubberized outer covering felt comfortable and provided a secure grip. I wore these with a chest harness. The included neck strap is just okay and the attachment points are very narrow which meant using split rings to attach the harness. The eyespacing and focusing knob stayed tight without the need to make constant readjustments in spite of raising and lowering the binos 100's of times in a day. The twist up eyecups were somewhat 'loose' changing the eye relief periodically. Not a big deal, just a little annoying.Overall I'm pretty satisfied for the price and I wasn't worried about dropping or damaging an expensive pair of binos. I'll be taking these with me on other trips in the coming year and hunting again next fall. Only reason I gave these a 4 rating is because of the eye relief being too easy to bump and change. Probably not an issue for most users. I'd recommend these to others without hesitation.

These Bushnell 138005 8 x 25mm binoculars are perfect for travelling. They are very compact and fold to quite a small size which enables me to permanently keep them tucked into the inner pocket of my carry on travel bag. I recently used these on a cruise and found the clarity excellent and I had no issues with fogging but (fortunately) have not yet had any occasion to investigate the waterproof claim. They are easy to adjust and comfortable to hold for extended periods (I like the texturized rubber surface). Focus is fast and sure and the 8x magnification is more than sufficient for all my needs.I shopped extensively for binoculars before committing to these, and I am thrilled with my purchase. These are a great value.

Ever wonder what your neighbor is cooking? What kind of kitty litter that little old lady across the way buys for her giant siamese cats?Look no further. These binoculars were made for your every day spying. Zoom in on people walking on your street, catch the bank robber by identifying him and spy on anyone you want.Jk these are perfect entry level birding binoculars. Great size and fit in hand.

These are very nice binoculars. Easy to use, focus and not heavy. They come with a nice soft storage case, strap and lense cleaning cloth. The strap seems worthy of use, but isn't iron clad obviously.I generally keep these in the glovebox to check out the trail ahead or nature when off road and they have been great every time. They are also very crisp and don't seem to distort anything as far as I can tell. The twist up eye pieces are very valuable when one person in the group wears glasses, but it's just as easy to use them without glasses and adjust the focus.If you're looking for these to use at a game, concert or bird watching they'll be great. They feel very well constructed and solid in the hand.

I LOVE these binoculars. Took them hiking in Sedona and it's amazing the clarity and magnification 8x provides. Easy to hold with one or two hands, and the provided strap in it's most snug fitting rested on my upper chest with ease. They are light weight, so the "bino necklace" is no problem at all. Amazing durability, and while I didn't get them wet, I did all creak hiking and had no fear of getting them wet. Great grip, super good clarity and brightness. Small enough to fit in a cargo pant pocket, but I kept them in the side pocket of my backpack, in the included case, when I wasn't wearing them around my neck. Would totally buy them again. Love them!

I wanted something small to leave in my purse. I tried 4 models of compact bins. I wasn't happy with the view through any of them. Ultimately, Vortex Bantam was recommended to me by their rep. Less magnification, but great viewing. I have 8x and 10x large binoculars for birding and wildlife. The Bantam will be fine to keep in a purse or backpack. Check them out. I just don't think these tiny models can do what I want.

Bought as a gift for a daughter who was going hiking on the BC coast. She liked them.Effective, yet compact for the backpack and waterproof in case of rain.

Si lo que necesitas es ver relativamente cerca (menos de 20 metros) estos binoculares son para ti. Son ideales para ver aves, son claros y nítidos. Si lo que quieres es ver más lejos, algo así como estrellas mejor cómprate unos 10x50 mínimo.La marca Bushnell es buenísima. Me encantan.

Very compact and lightweight. Can easily fit in pocket. Good for birders who want a compact and light binocular. Image quality and build is very good. If a koel-sized bird were to be sitting on the distant tree branch circled in red in the picture attached, you would be able to see and identify it clearly using this 8x25 binocular. Buy without hesitation but only if you are sure you want a compact, portable yet a good binocular.

Aspetto "plasticoso", certamente materiali e rifiniture non particolarmente nobili. Le immagini che restituisce però sono risultate essere migliori di prodotti dal prezzo doppio. Inaspettata nitidezza a bordo campo. In relazione al prezzo va più che bene. Si è creato un prodotto dal rapporto qualità/prezzo ottimale.
