Review on πŸ” Enhanced BARSKA Ruby Lens Gladiator Binoculars by Melvin House

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good budget binoculars

Another "for the price" review. While others have stated that there is blur when zooming in, I've found that as you zoom in, your depth of field narrows enough that you really need to fine-tune focus. This is most noticeable when you zoom in from 20x to 30x. From 10x to 20x you will have no problems at all. Once you've done that, you can read the writing on a broken bottle from about 100 feet away! The optics aren't crystal clear as you would expect from a very high quality pair of binoculars, but for the average user this is a great option. When I received my set, the barrel on the right side was not screwed directly into the body. At first I thought the threads were twisted and the binoculars useless, but I managed to get the barrel out and then screw it back in. The squinting problem is solved and everything else works as it should. The colors are a bit muted, but not too strong. The only other gripe would be that the focus doesn't have enough travel - I'd rather have more travel with less adjustment per degree of rotation. Nice binoculars for your car!

Pros
  • Delightful
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
