Well made and extremely durable binoculars

Well made and extremely durable binoculars. The field of view is too narrow, even on the lowest settings, e.g. B. when looking through a pipe. I love my other Barska binoculars and their telescope. I really like my Barska 20-140x80 binoculars. You are wonderful!

Pros
  • Large lens maximizes light transmission for excellent brightness and bright images even in low light conditions
Cons
  • sad packaging

Poor quality binoculars and scopes

This is poor quality. They are lighter than I expected. On a bright overcast day, everything looked dark and there was haze around the edges of the image. I had double vision for most of the focal length range. At 60x it was very shaky even when mounted on a tripod. The photos show the water tower at about 500 yards at 12x and 60x. All in all, don't waste your money, they're very cheap and don't work well.

Pros
  • Ergonomic design with shock absorbing rubber armor
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Pretty bad good for binoculars and scopes

This is very bad. I got a more convenient pair of binoculars from Happymeal and they even fold up and fit in my back pocket. I have several binoculars. From cheap to high. Nikon zoom binoculars are ten times better and twice as expensive. These are the worst I've ever used. Not even remotely aligned from the factory. Even with lower performance. You have to destroy the rubber to adjust them so they line up. And even then, they're pretty poor.

Pros
  • See instruction manual below.
Cons
  • No performance

Possibly good binoculars if you don't have a lemon like I did.

They have what it takes to make really good binoculars. However, the pair I received has a problem with the diopter adjustment and I can't get my right eye to focus on my left. I can focus either my left or right eye, but not both at the same time. In the focused eye there is good clarity and minimal distortion around the edges and I like the zoom range. I just want both eyes to focus at the same time.

Pros
  • Exit Pupil (mm): 5.8-1 / Eye Reduction: 0.83 inch / Close Focus (ft/m): 49/15.
Cons
  • Quality

Good binoculars best in camera & photo

I have had these binoculars for about a month and I really like them. Love the fact that they range from 12-60 watts, although you really need a tripod for a stable, high-wattage display, which I have. They appear to be well made and the zoom mechanism works well. These are large binoculars and weigh a little more than the smaller models, but not by much. I would recommend them to anyone looking to buy a more powerful pair of binoculars, but you must have a tripod for higher magnification…

Pros
  • Tripod adapter and carrying case included
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model

These binoculars need serious tuning.

I gave this binocular a terrible rating and it only got a third. I think for under $80 you get what you pay for. But they have a pretty narrow field of view and need to constantly refocus. They were so far from collimation that it was almost impossible to tell what the tubes were looking at. I went to YouTube and figured out how to set them up and it took me just over an hour to try and focus on the distant treetops. If you set it to 12x and then zoom in, you have to focus a lot. So make sure…

Pros
  • Field of View (feet at 1000 yd/m at 1000 m) 120 40 at 12x magnification. (Tripod adjustable).
Cons
  • Reliability

You need a tripod for these giant binoculars.

I have used these binoculars for many years. These are excellent binoculars when used correctly. These binoculars are large and heavy, so they are not designed for observing moving objects. Especially with high magnification, you will have difficulties finding the object at all due to the high magnification. Without a sturdy tripod, you'll tire quickly and find it difficult to capture your subject easily. However, if you use these binoculars with a tripod to observe stationary or very…

Pros
  • Fully coated optics for clear and sharp images
Cons
  • Fine
