I have had these binocs for many years. Recently I needed repairs for a couple minor issues. Burris's Forever Warranty was great, returning me a new pair in quick time. Very happy with the new ones also.

Hello, I bought this Signature HD 12 X 50mm and I simply Love this thing. I'm going to use it for Hunting and other outings. I will now be looking to Burris for all my future purchases. Not to mention that a Company that backs their products the way Burris does is saying a lot about a Company that Believes in their products. Thank You Burris?

For those who have been trying to find an honest review on these binoculars? it?s impossible. There?s so many mixed opinions out there. Well I decided to take a chance and purchase these guys to see for myself. A little about what I use them for ;I?m a hunter in Arizona, primarily glassing for coues whitetail. For those who know of ?the grey ghost? ; they can be almost impossible to find due to their color and size. I?ve tried a couple different pieces of glass such as Nikons, vortex, and bushnell from over the years. All models in about the same price range as these bad boys. These binoculars are awesome, crystal clear view without any blur or fuzzy ring. The focus is super easy and I was able to focus them in record time. I have had no complaints about using them during twilight either. These binoculars are an all around great piece of equipment, PERIOD. Don?t let any other glass snobs tell you otherwise. I highly recommend this product to anyone out there who is an avid hunter or just needs something that will give you high definition clarity/resolution from a distance. As for the couse whitetail, you have been spotted! A great feature I would like to see from Burris in the future is a focus lock for those situations where time is of the essence. Other than that, go get yourself a pair. They cannot be beat for the money.

I bought my first burris rifle scope 40 years ago. Sense then I've bought multiple scopes and binoculars. 30 years or so ago i bought a set of 12×50 binos they were a little to powerful for everyday use (but to this day i use them from the daily so i bought some 10×42 i used them daily and hard they got kind of rough so i sent them in to have them fixed they called me up said they were to rough to fix but offered me a set of Signature series for a reduced cost i Said sure. Now I'm on my 3rd replacement pair at no cost to me although the hard use they get is my fault. I also have lieca and Swarovski but my go to everyday user's are 10x42 signature HD there crystal clear light and the best binoculars for the money period!

Burris sent these to me when they were unable to repair my 20 year old 10X50s. i loved those. the 12x50 will be a great replacement. i would have given 5 stars if they had a close-focus distance similar to my old ones. as a bird watcher, from hidden spots, the closeness of the birds can be remarkably observed with close-focus high quality binocs. thank you

I have spent nearly 10 years birding and constantly testing optical equipment throughout this time. I own a pair of Zeiss Conquest 10x42, Nikon monarch 5 10x42, Carson 3D 10x42 and 10x50, Bushnell Legend ultra HD binoculars, among others. When I received my binoculars I decided to test them against my Carson 3D and Bushnell Legend ultra HD . The results for the Burris Signature HD 10x42 were totally disappointing, a mediocre image quality, with few sharp focus, and non-ergonomic feel to the touch, mainly on the focus wheel. The binoculars Carson 3D and Busnell Legend ultra HD are totally superior to the imagen, Focus, and ergonomic quality of the Burris Signature HD, so I didn't even bother to compare ir against my Zeiss Conquests. I decided to purchase a pair of Burris Signature HD 10x42 after reading some reviews about these binoculars, which mention that they have top line quality. These reviews are totally false, the optics of the Burris Signature HD are very below the medium line of binoculars (between $200-350 dollars). Fortunately I am returning this equipment and I hope to have my money back. My advice: DO NOT BUY THESE BINOCULARS, save time and money and invest in quality equipment.

I used these binos for the last two years and finished an Alaskan moose hunt with them this September. They have performed very well. There is a little low light blur compared to some of the high end stuff I’ve used, but that would be comparing apples to oranges. For the price these offer a great value. Some people might say the lighter feel seems less durable but I sure appreciate the lighter weight hanging in my bino harness when we’re out all day and those things are hanging on me for 12-14 hours. Having these with me this week we’re key to being able to judge some of the bulls we saw.

Having already owned a pair of Burris 10x50 binoculars since the mid 90's I decided to take a chance and purchase, (by mail), a pair of the Signature 10x42 series, (having never looked through or handled a pair). Cannot be more pleased. Crystal clear view, nice and light and easy to use. Good warranty as well. I had my heart set on the Vortex Viper 10x42 Binos but overall the Burris Signatures are just as good - for less money.

Roughly twenty years ago I chose Burris Signature 10X42 binoculars over all other brands. They were simply the clearest view. It also turned out that I could look through them all day with no eye strain. After using them for twenty years, through all seasons, and very tough conditions, they developed cracks in the rubber cups around the eyepiece. Not a big deal but I sent them to Burris for repair. I just opened the return box and it contained a brand new pair of 12X50 HD Signature binoculars. Why buy any other brand?

I purchased a pair of Burris 8 x 42 many years ago, and they quickly became one of my favorite pair of binoculars, I kept them at my cabin in Alaska to spot game, when we had the Nov 30 earthquake many things were destroy or damaged, including my Burris binoculars, I sent them in to be fix, Burris determined they could not be fixed, so they sent me a new pair of Signature HD 8 x 42, what great service and binoculars.

I´m a Birdwatcher and Have a Tourist company in my country.... I bought the Signature 10x42 (I live in Guatemala and bought them on Amazon But I'm not pleased when I realize that the focus is not as smooth as others ... Exemple, the Bushnell Legend M series which cost me $ 260.00. About Lens , Bushnell Legend (which I have) and Burris S. HD. Have the same quality (no complains) ... The truth about someone saying that these Burris are as good as the $ 1,000 Vortex is not true. They are just good. I´m disappointed on the NOT SMOOTH focus and the first week I got them, the left objective lens screw got loose ...

I just received the 12x50 Signature binoculars recently, so I can't speak for their durability, but their overall quality appears to be excellent. The binos are comfortable to hold, are neither heavy or light(cheap feeling), and have good eye relief. The glass is clear edge to edge, and I was able to make out fine details on a rainy day from 500-700 yards away. These binos are a perfect balance between performance and a reasonable price point that fill a gap in my optics collection. Thanks Burris!

I've used the Vortex Viper HD 12x50's the last two seasons hunting mule deer in the west, primarily at long range. I've spent extensive time looking through meopta hd's, swarovski's, viper's, razor's, etc. These are every bit as good or better compared to the Viper HD's i've used the last two seasons and they are cheaper. Also, they are made in Japan vs. China (vortex). I'm happy with these so far. The only thing I don't like is that the diopter focus ring can't be locked in place like the viper's. Besides that, these are great!
