This product made a great gift for my mom for mother's day. They're amazing binoculars. I recommend them to anyone interested in bird watching. They're easy to use but still have excellent clarity.
I am interested in birdwatching and general observation on hikes and in my backyard. After a lot of research I bought the Nikon Action which have been wonderful. I have been careful not to lose my eye/lens covers which was recommened. I would recommend these to anyone who is looking for reasonably priced binoculars.
Great quality, and prompt delivery. Like some of the other reviews said, they are a little heavy, but since I don't carry them around, this don't matter.
These binoculars are well worth the money. They are dramatically better than most in this price range. Their view is very crisp at all ranges. One especially good feature for watching birds in the yard is the ability to focus at a very close range.The binoculars are balanced well, and are very comfortable to use.
They are clear and you can see far and they aren't shaky (like the higher power 10+ binoculars can be). So I went to Walmart and actually looked at them and used them there (but they were $20 less on Amazon). I researched binoculars for an upcoming Alaska trip and saw someone say these were used on the whaling boat they went on. The reason I gave them a 4 star instead of a 5 is because when I looked through them at Walmart everything looked really close so when I took them to a park and viewed a hawk in a tree I was a little disappointed and thought it would look bigger. and I liked them. They are lightweight and they come with a neckstrap, lens covers and a padded nylon square case to protect them. I guess that's not really the binoculars fault though because I guess that is all 8x power gives you. If you are looking for bincoculars that you can use with a tripod I would suggest going higher power, but for vacations and not too far bird viewing these are great :)
