very good binoculars January 5, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought these for a concert I recently attended. Our seats were all the way at the back of the arena but these binoculars made it seem like I was on the floor. Not quite first row, but much, much better than where we were seated. They are clear and crisp and I highly recommend them.
Broke after 2 uses and exit pupil too narrow October 19, 2007 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
I've only used these twice and the 2nd time was star gazing and the focusing mechanism in the left lens stopped working without an apparent cause of damage. The small exit pupil diamater has always resulted in serious eye strain as well, making perfect alignment a requirement for getting any usable images.
You get what you pay for.
Opera Goer October 2, 2007 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I bought these binoculars as a companion to the opera. I used them yesterday for the first time, and I must say these do the job just great. The size is very small, so you can put them in a small purse, and the touch and design of them are very delicate. I was sharing them throughout the whole performance, and I did not have any problem at all with the focus; they were in focus all the time. I did not know much about binoculars, so I did some research online before buying. I found out Bushnell was a very reliable brand, and the price of these on Amazon is just great ($19.99 while I am writing this review). I wear glasses, so I have to take them off to use them properly; but that is just fine with me. My seats at the opera this year are among the worst, because I wanted to see the whole season for a cheaper price, so I needed to make sure I got binoculars. I am completely satisfied with these, and I do not need any fancier or more expensive ones.
A look at the Bushness Power View 12X25 August 13, 2007 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
A gift for my 10-year old birdwatching granddaughter. She was delighted. I would have preferred a lower magnification; 12x is too much for extended viewing, and 6x or 8x more generally usable. The pair was well made, very good value.
