Review on 🌊 Waterproof and Fogproof Bushnell H2O Compact Roof Prism Binoculars by Barb Franz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Gains at 10x

I leave this review for those who are hesitating between this 8x magnification and the similar 10x Bushnell magnification. I ordered both without knowing what would be better and more practical as a gift, even though they cost the same. I've looked at the terrain/objects both fairly close to my location (maybe 50 yards) and far into the terrain (maybe 1/2 mile) and I've noticed very little difference when zooming in or out. But the 10x move was significant. I could rest my elbows on the back of the couch, but when I tried to hold him outdoors I could see that the lack of control was annoying. So 10X is back. Since I had to pay for return shipping I figured I'd leave my two cents because they're worth it. Otherwise, as with other reviews, I think they are really well made for compact binoculars and fit well in a case. The eyecups may not be as deep as some would like, but I found them ok. As others have said, excellent return.

Pros
  • 15ft minimum focusing distance; 12mm eye relief
Cons
  • Not sure
