Review on Bushnell Spectator 4x30mm Extra-Wide Compact Binoculars - Perfect Viewing Experience for Sports or Stage Events, with 900' FOV! by Andrea Allen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

If you wear glasses, don't worry. Freedom of focus is not for you.

Only recommended if you have perfect vision or contact lenses. I had to return them and take regular binoculars with me. If your vision is corrected with glasses, you will need focusable binoculars to use without glasses (this is the best way to use binoculars to see the full area). ). With my imperfect vision, some distances were sharp and others weren't. The description says that the close focus ability depends on your own eyes. Well, I would say that the sharpness of focus - in all areas - also depends on your eyes. The wide field of view and lower magnification is a great idea for many social events such as theater (or) and sporting events. Most binoculars are too powerful and have too narrow a field of view for this use. It's essentially a replacement for opera glasses, which are traditionally small, ornate, and can be awkward depending on the context and person using them. This is definitely a unique product, a great idea and unlike anything else. I would prefer if they are NOT devoid of focus. Unfortunately I couldn't find anything like that. Highly recommended for proper use. IF you can see well without glasses. If I decide to have Lasik surgery I will buy them again.
