Very compact and lightweight. The glass is super clear and is great for spotting at the range or scouting for game.

Excellent color and clarity for the price point. Durable and well constructed. Comes with the Vortex warranty. Chest case and straps are a nice inclusion.

High quality product operating exactly as described. Well built with clear optical performance. It is rugged, balanced, and feels good in the hand. Eye relief is a strong point and something to consider for a future buyer. Shipping was fast and on time. The lifetime warranty is to not be discounted. If anything is defective Vortex will stand behind their product. There is no embellishment from the marketing. The description is what you expect to receive.

These are great other than the eye relief does not stay in place.

The glass is crystal clear and I can see for miles

For the price point, I don't think you can find a better set of binos. Perfect for east Texas hunting where you are glassing around 250-300 yards out.

These are a great set of binoculars. The lenses are clear and it feels sturdy. You won't be upset buying these. The glasspak is great for hunting and the neck lanyard is very comfortable. The only thing I can say is I wish they included the quick snaps to go between the glasspak and the neck harness.

I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the hardware and optics for this price. For most uses I really don't feel like I'm missing much from *much* higher priced binoculars.

Great binos for the price point. I use these for deer, turkey, and archery in AL where seeing for 200 miles isn't all that important.

Very reliable good quality optics. Bought them for a Western Elk hunt. Vortex makes a higher end model than this but found Diamond Back model a great value.

I use these binos while hunting in the woods, or while at home looking at things off of my deck. They are lightweight and easy to use. They come with a nice case to store them in when they are not in use.

I saw a buddy of mine using them over the weekend and decided I need them myself. They don't break the bank and they work as intended. Clear as day, and like the strap , carrying bag And accessories that come with it. A must on the range for anything up to 200

Great value for the money no doubt. I've taking this binos hunting for several years now. Compact ergonomics are great even when is wet and the glass is clear. Not the razor quality but it does its job

These 10x42 Binoculars deliver outstanding clarity and performance. They provide crisp, bright, and color-accurate images, even in low light conditions. The wide field of view makes it easy to spot and track wildlife. These binoculars are lightweight, featuring a durable rubber armor coating for a secure, non-slip grip. They're also waterproof and fog-proof, perfect for use in any weather. The adjustable eyecups and smooth focus wheel add comfort and precision to the experience. Overall, the Diamondbacks are a premium quality and reliability at a great value.

The Vortex Diamondback line is known for its mid-tier affordability. I would say this fits the bill. Binoculars are like scopes--you can spend a few hundred, or a few thousand--and you have to be realistic about your needs. I purchased these as a lightweight hiking option I could throw into my backpack, and also to use at the range when I didn't pack a magnified optic. It was especially useful for those days where I was using a red dot, shooting out at 100 yds or a little further, but wanted to see my impacts on paper without having to walk out there each time. I know there are much higher end binoculars out there, but I think many of the weekend-tactical community ends up buying something way more expensive than they will ever need for logo cred, and personally the Diamondback HD has done everything I've ever needed it to do. I would highly recommend.

They are practical and don't break bank. I have razor version and I keep these as a spare set in my truck for drive and spot. I love their range and glass is decent quality.

I bought these back a few years ago thru expertvoice. Vortex is definitely in a class of their own. Twice these have taken major spills amd vortex was more than happy to check them out and fix what is broken. These are tough built model. I hunt washington and idaho. I dont have any issues with early morning fogging or dusty lenses. I love the diamondback series.

I have loved these binoculars. I have glassed multiple times with these and have loved it each time. Obviously since these are the lower quality binoculars at times at greater distances they can be SLIGHTLY blurry but I mean barely noticeable. The glass is super clear and I will definitely be using these as long as I can. They are great. The harness is honestly comfortable to wear as well. These are great starter binos.

Incredible pricing and warranty
By Shebadog
Wow...just bought these after spending a month on reviews and trying out several pairs. I'm not an expert but learned alot and love these...nice sturdy build, bright, focus great from side to side..no blurring or fish eye. Best warranty on the market and I read all warranties on the better brands...nothing to match including zweiss. Was torn between 8x42, 10x42 and 10x50. After salesman let me take them outside the 10x50 won my eyes. Gave me just a little more magnification without compromisi...

I bought these binoculars about a month and a half ago and I?ve used them several times, and I love them! They are great quality for the price !!
Become an expert observer with the 8x42 Diamondback HD Waterproof Roof Prism Binocular, a high-performance optical tool that redefines the balance between cost and quality. This binocular is designed to deliver superior optical performance that far surpasses its category, making it an ideal choice for nature enthusiasts, bird watchers, and outdoor adventurers.
The Diamondback HD Binocular is equipped with an HD Optical System, meticulously optimized with select glass elements. This advanced system offers exceptional resolution, reduces chromatic aberration, and ensures outstanding color fidelity, edge-to-edge sharpness, and optimal light transmission. The Fully Multi-Coated feature enhances light transmission, thanks to multiple anti-reflective coatings on all air-to-glass surfaces.
The binocular also boasts a Dielectric Coating, which provides multi-layer prism coatings for bright, clear, and color-accurate images. The exterior lenses are safeguarded by an ArmorTek Ultra-hard, scratch-resistant coating, protecting them from scratches, oil, and dirt. The Phase Correction Coating on roof prism models further enhances resolution and contrast.
Constructed with a Rubber Armor, this binocular offers a secure, non-slip grip and durable external protection. Its Waterproof O-ring seals prevent moisture, dust, and debris from penetrating the binocular, ensuring reliable performance in all environments. The Shockproof construction withstands recoil and impact, while the Fogproof feature, facilitated by Argon gas purging, prevents internal fogging over a wide range of temperatures.
The Roof Prism design adds to the binocular's durability and compact size, while the Magnesium Chassis reduces weight and increases strength. For user convenience, the binocular features Adjustable Eyecups that twist up and down for comfortable viewing with or without eyeglasses. The Center Focus Wheel adjusts the focus of both binocular barrels simultaneously, and the Diopter adjusts for differences in a user's eyes, located on the right eyepiece. The binocular is also Tripod Adaptable, compatible with a tripod adapter for use on a tripod or car window mount.
This bundle includes a GlassPak binocular harness that keeps your binoculars readily accessible, ready to deploy at a moment's notice. This harness provides protection and significantly more comfort than traditional neck straps. A telescoping stool/chair and cleaning cloth are also part of the package, enhancing your outdoor viewing experience.
