Although they are a little heavy and bulky, they work very well and serve the purpose without having to treat them like fine china. The Binoculars work quite well for viewing sporting events. I got them for just under $40 marked down from about $80.
Perfect and great value for money We use it for birdwatching and everytime we step outdoors.
Perhaps its my eyes. Not good for bird watching. Can't begin to imagine for sports. I purchased these with the intent of using for bird watching but they literally make me feel dizzy and green. Unsure but they don't compare to 30 year old set. Seem abnormally darker than others I've used and never give a crisp clear view. No matter what I try, they just don't seem to provide a clear, distinct view. On the other hand, they are by far more ergonomic than the old ones I owned, feel great, solid, nice set.but wish I'd kept my 30 year old set instead.
They seem rugged and very solid, though I haven't done much with them. The one general complaint I have is that the rocker focus mechanism has too much give in it. I bought these binoculars to watch the birds in my backyard but failed to do sufficient pre-sale research. I like the rubberized housing. You can rock it for a few degrees before it actually starts doing any focusing. Their nearest focus point is probably 50ft and their magnification is generally higher than you would want. So they are ill suited for my intended use, but that is my fault, not Bushnells.For viewing things further away they are fine.
She was thrilled with the quality of the optics, and the ease in which she can focus the binocluars, which is important to her bird watching hobby.Bushnell Powerview 16x50 Binocular The binoculars were purchsed as a gift for my wife.
