Tech Talk
Objective Lens: The diameter of the objective or front lens. The larger the objective lens, the more light that enters the binocular, and the brighter the image.
Field of View (F.O.V.): The side-to-side measurement of the circular viewing field or subject area. It is defined by the width in feet or meters of the area visible at 1000 yards or meters. A wide angle binocular features a wide field of view and is better for following action. Generally, the higher the magnification, the narrower the field of view.
Roof Prism System: In roof prism binoculars the prisms overlap closely, allowing the objective lenses to line up directly with the eyepiece. The result is a slim, stream-lined shape in which the lenses and prisms are in a straight line.

teaching a class to some jr. ornithologists. the price was right for our budget.the young teens were able to find the bird and focus quickly and easily with these. the light weight and small size is a big plus. as time goes on they may want to buy more expensive glasses, but maybe not. i find myself reaching for these and leaving my 'good ones' at home.

Bought these binoculars for an upcoming trip to Alaska. There are nice and light, fold easily and the optics are very good. They came with a soft fabric case that can attach to a belt, a cleaning cloth and neck cord. They are great for bird watching at the house. They will pack easily and be great for viewing animals on the Alaska trip.

These are very inexpensive for the quality. Comes with a carrying case and lens cloth. For this price I can afford to throw them away and replace them a lot.

I wasn't expecting much for the price here, but the first pair was so impressive that we ordered a second. These turned out to be just right for our purposes--looking at architectural details, frescos, etc. on a trip. I wear glasses and although it's always a hassle to take off your glasses to use binoculars, I was pleased that the eyes could be adjusted separately if needed. (I have a strong and very lopsided prescription.) These are very small and (fairly) light too.

Got these for dance and theater performances and they work just fine and are easy to carry. Used them from the upper terrace at a baseball game, and they weren't quite as good from the greater distance, but overall they are a great value.
