We bought these binoculars at the last minute for our trip to Costa Rica. They are perfect for travelling as they are very light and compact. They were perfect for viewing wildlife, birds and scenery. We were very glad that we made this purchase prior to our trip. I definitely recommend these if you are looking for binoculars that are easy to use and carry.

I was fooled by great reviews and a great price. I guess they are good but I wanted something more powerful. They are compact and lightweight. They have a nice design but I did return them. I am going to buy something more powerful but I guess I am going to have to spend the extra money.

I just received and returned these the same day. Somehow I didn't expect binoculars the size of a paperback. Don't get me wrong ... They look like great binoculars. It is just that I didn't equate the words "compact", and "small" with dinky. My bad :) So, I thought I'd share my experience to help you avoid repeating my mistake. If you are looking for small binoculars, you should definitely consider these. If you are looking for standard sized binoculars do not order these.

I have bought this binoculars from Amazon through a friend in States to be delivered to Singapore. I needed the bino to check if there are any available slots in the golf driving range about 400 metres from my room. : )

After reading all the great comments about this piece of baby, i decided to buy it. The magnification wasn't as terrific as i thought, the distance is too far? guess i was bought by the writeups posted by the previous reviewers. I've not tried the other binoculars before, but i'm pretty convinced the other brands will do just as fine minus the higher price tag.

This is an excelent item for your outdoor sport entertenment.- Comes with a black belt organizer.-
