Review on 🔭 SVBONY SV45 10-30x50 Zoom Monocular - Waterproof High Power Mini Spotting Scope for Outdoor Activity by Richard Counts

September 2018 Update - WAIT a minute, my product is Eyeskey, NOT SVBONY as it is listed as of now. how has it changed? I just stumbled upon this and thought I'd give an update. I don't use this often now, but I can make sure I put the strap on properly so it fits snugly in the folded strap. The monocular is just as nice as said. I happened to see some wonderful pictures of migratory birds - pelicans flying by and cranes - and I was amazed and very glad to see them and take a good look at them to make sure I don't go crazy seeing pelicans so far inland. . Great product, easy to use and wear on your belt rather than around your neck like binoculars. And the x50 gathers SO much light that it really helps at dusk or for pre-dawn viewing. What can I say? I am very happy with this monocular! And no, nobody is paying me to say that and I bought it at the regular price. Original November 2016 Just received it today so I cannot speak on all terms of display or durability but the monocular was well packaged and arrived in perfect condition. I took it outside in daylight and was impressed by the ease of focusing, the sharp image and the fact that the 'exit pupil' was so good I never encountered that 'black spot' where nothing was visible and I did looked through. Sunglasses. I like the twist to raise the eyecup as it doesn't flatten out when packed. The field of view is larger than any other optical device (binoculars/monocular). One of the reasons I bought this was the wrist strap and at 10 x 50 it really helped to provide a very stable image and also helped reduce hand fatigue. The only thing they could add is a picture of how the strap should go. You can put it on there but I didn't put it on properly in the picture so I'll have to readjust it - I have a buckle between the strap and the scope and it's uncomfortable. Of course you can fold it into a block if this picture is correct. I will try again. The case is pretty good. Overall very happy with this small and light monocular. It is great for bird watching at dusk as well as during the day. Love it!
