Review on πŸ”­ Bushnell Powerview Wide Angle Binocular: Top-quality Porro Prism Glass BK-7 for Enhanced Viewing by Tina Coleman

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Really terrible. Shock by Bushnell

I have some experience with SLR cameras and own several telescopes and binoculars in different price ranges. I found this to be such a problem that I'm wondering if they're broken apart from a few issues related to physical limitations. Pros - Nice firm feel. That's all. Cons: The eyepieces you can get as close together as possible are still too far apart. I can use it easily, my girlfriend can't use it with both eyes at the same time - she is 5ft 4" and her eyes are usually spaced for her height. - blurry. Blurred. Blurred. Even with diopter adjustment, I just can't get enough clarity out of them. It is very bad. Using one page at a time doesn't seem to help. Focusing requires a lot more pressure than I'm used to. I use them in broad daylight to look at things around me (fields, etc.). Stationary, lots of light. I have a Vanguard set that I paid $200 for (Revain, on sale) and they are absolutely amazing. I have another lens in the $80 range that is far superior to this set. I've had them for eight months now; will contact Bushnell and update if helpful.
