- Nice size; good deal.
I bought these binoculars after reading reviews here and in Consumer Reports. I took them on a recent trip and they provided good views of Yosemite National Park's features and its residents.

Of course, it's nice if one person "owns" the binoculars, so the focus doesn't have to be changed between users!

I bought this for an outing to Costa Rica. Consumer Reports ranked it as one of their highest performing and a CR pick.From stargazing in the mountains to watching animals from afar, these binoculars have blown my mind.The clarity is far above what I had expected.Definitely worth every penny.I bought another so I won't have to share on my next trip.

The glasses are fine.The visual field is a little too narrow for the opera stage.I'm using these but I'm still looking.Any suggestions?
