I purchased these binoculars not quite two years ago, and I think this was one of my best purchases ever as a paddler/birder. I wear eye glasses and getting a quality pair of waterproof, fogproof roof prism binoculars at a price that I could afford was a daunting task. Everytime I thought I had found the right optics, they didn't fit my unusual eyesight spacing. Finally, my local WildBirds Unlimited Store expert suggested these binoculars, and I have been happy ever since.

The great thing about these binoculars is that I can wear them around my neck while paddling with minimal fatigue. The optics are phase coated and are wonderful in the late afternoon when lighting can become an issue for spotting birds and seeing their details clearly.

I will always dream of owning a pair of Swarovskis. But believe me,these Minox 8x32's are a wonderful pair of binoculars. I highly recommend them to anyone on a budget who still wants quality optics.

These are excellent binoculars. They are very bright and offer good (about 3.5 ft) close focus. They are waterproof and highly durable. I have used them for bird, butterfly and dragonfly watching. They are bright enough for dusk and dawn viewing, but are exceeded (only slightly) by my Celestron Regal 10 X 50s. For this price ... I would consider them a fine purchase for anyone buying a pair of binoculars. I liked them so much; my father bought the 10 X 42 version. If you prefer more magnification, they are great too, although they only close focus at 6 ft.

I own these binoculars since 1999 and are perfect for hunting or outdoor activities. They withstand elements (Rain, Extreme heat, Winds) they dont blur (Even at fog you can see very well because of the high contrast) And Can be used very well by people who use eyeglasses. Great Product i give it 5 stars because it well worth it.
