great optics

The lense covers don't fit. They simply fall off. I contacted the company, they said I probably received the wrong size. So they sent me another, single, lense cover. Binocular has two. . . . I contacted customer support, I'm waiting for a solution. The binoculars are great. The carrying bag and neck strap are very cheap compared to an older pair. I guess the lense covers are being made cheap too. That could be why they don't fit. . . I hope they last as long as the last pair I had for many years.

Quality and Performance at a fair price

I purchased this item for my daughter and granddaughter to do their bird watching and identifying. They told me that they were both impressed with the quality, focus, and clearity of the glass.

Lens cover falls off

I purchased these for the wife. She loves them with the exception that the objective lens cover continues to slid off. This is extremely irritating as you don't notice that the lens cover has fallen off until you are putting the binocs away. Then you have to look around to try to find the cover. Is there any way to secure the lens cover strap to the binocs?

Very much pleased!

The purchase of these New Bushnell H20 8x42 Waterproof Binoculars is well worth the money. They are quality built, nice size, 6 inches long, and very clear looking through them. Nice case, carrying strap, and lens covers. Thank you Bushnell

Not nearly as good as my last pair, with the exact same specs

So disappointed! I replaced my failing binoculars with the exact same specs from this same company and they are not the same quality at all. It brings birds closer, but there are no details whatsoever. Just a blob.

great binoculars, especially for eyeglass wearers

These binoculars give a tack-sharp view extending to the edge of the FOV. The extra-long eye relief makes it possible to wear thick eyeglasses (with twist up eyecups in any position) and still get the entire FOV. The image from these compares favorably with any of the binoculars that I have. If you are looking for a good 7x50 with long eye relief and sharp image quality, check these out.

Excellent! Fit the bill.

I bought these to bird watch. The price was right, and I did not sacrifice image quality since these are Porro prism binoculars. Very clear images, easy to focus, nice wide field of view. Some people might not like that they are heavy compared to some binoculars. I go on long outings and the weight has never been an issue.

Bought 2 pairs.

We are going to see Elton John at Dodger Stadium and our seats are behind 3rd base and the stage is in the outfield so we wanted a pair of binoculars so we didn't have to rely on the "big screen". These were perfect. Bought 2 pairs. One for me and one for my wife. The binoculars are great but it was difficult to get the straps through the slots on the binoculars. They could have made that easier.

Upgrade but not as good

I had these as a warranty replacement due to my last pair fogging up. They are slightly more compact but do not feel as nice in the hand as my last pair which had a soft rubber outer. I would have preferred them to be black but that's just a personal preference. I also agree with the last reviewer, the lens caps seem cheap are too large and keep falling off, not great.
