Good and Reasonably Priced.......2007-12-27
We purchased these cute binoculars for a recent trip we took. We wanted something light and compact to put into my pocket book just in case we wanted a closer look while sightseeing. They were perfect as we went to Sedona, Grand Canyon and Las Vegas and we would have definitely been disappointed without them. These binoculars had a very good view and steady feel. We got a really close look at the condors soaring over the Grand Canyon. We found the binoculars to be of good value and performance.
Broke after 2 uses and exit pupil too narrow.......2007-10-20
I've only used these twice and the 2nd time was star gazing and the focusing mechanism in the left lens stopped working without an apparent cause of damage. The small exit pupil diamater has always resulted in serious eye strain as well, making perfect alignment a requirement for getting any usable images.
You get what you pay for.
Opera Goer.......2007-10-02
I bought these binoculars as a companion to the opera. I used them yesterday for the first time, and I must say these do the job just great. The size is very small, so you can put them in a small purse, and the touch and design of them are very delicate. I was sharing them throughout the whole performance, and I did not have any problem at all with the focus; they were in focus all the time. I did not know much about binoculars, so I did some research online before buying. I found out Bushnell was a very reliable brand, and the price of these on Amazon is just great ($19.99 while I am writing this review). I wear glasses, so I have to take them off to use them properly; but that is just fine with me. My seats at the opera this year are among the worst, because I wanted to see the whole season for a cheaper price, so I needed to make sure I got binoculars. I am completely satisfied with these, and I do not need any fancier or more expensive ones.

Great Pocket Binoculars.......2007-12-21
I purchased these for my step-father. He likes to have binoculars that fit in his front shirt pocket when he is out fishing. These are good quality & compact.
Good one.......2007-09-21
Good binocular. Even a good item to gift also.
Biggest advantage is that you can watch without glasses.
Decent value .......2007-08-24
For about $20.00, these are just fine. The image is not particularly bright...but they are clear and focus accurately. And they are VERY portable - folded they are about the size of a GPS or digital camera.
Bushnell Powerview 8x21 compacvt Binoculars.......2007-08-13
These are a decent little pair of binocvulars. The light gathering power is not enormous, but I was able to see night sky objetcs well, andromeda galaxy and the Pleadies star cluster looked nice. They fold up and are fairly compact. Good for daylight viewing and bird watching, not the best out there, but good for being very inexpensive.
Best value for money.......2007-05-19
I bought my first binoculars. These are compact, lightweight and easy to use. Highly recommend.

better than decent.......2007-12-12
Bought as a gift for my father. he needed something small and lightweight which these are. I dont know how clear and how crisp the ocular qualities are, as Ive not been the one to use them. But he hasnt had any complaints.

Good binos........2007-08-21
I bought a pair of these about 2 years ago for bird watching. I was very happy with them. Unfortunately they where broken on a recent family vacation.
I came home and promptly bought a new set. I not only bought a pair for me, but also a pair for my two sons and my mother.
I've never looked through a pair of ungodly expensive binoculars so I honestly can't tell you how these compare. But I will say I've owned several different pairs of 'nocs over the last decade and these are far and away my favorite.
I especially like the center focus bar. A few months back (before vacation) I thought I needed a new pair of bins. I purchased a pair that had a center focus wheel. I took them in the field to bird watch and was very disappointed with them. I had gotten so spoiled with the center focus bar that I had a hard time focusing fast enough with a center wheel focus. 9 times out of 10 the bird I was trying to look at flew away before I could bring the other pair (also Bushnell) into focus.
Great Binocs!.......2007-05-31
For the price, these binoculars are really nice. The only drawback is the size, they are a full size binocular and a little heavy but not too bad. They do a great job and are well worth the price.
Not good enough.......2007-05-26
Several years ago I bought a pair of Bushnell 10X50 binoculars and to this day they are amazing. So, when it was time to buy a pair for a family member I decided to buy another pair of Bushnell 10X50. Unfortunately, I did not understand the specs of binoculars and the field of view of the new pair is much, much smaller than the old pair. I also noticed that the new pair were made in China and the old were made in the Phillipines. I am not sure but maybe the country of manufacture has something to do with the difference. I'm not sure.
Anyway, I would recommned trying the binoculars of choice at a store and then order. Do not go by the specs!
Very Practical.......2007-03-23
If it wasn't for the safety caps that fall off easily I would rate this item with 5 stars. However, the binoculars are great for checking out sports like basketball and football, especially if you can't afford the pricy seats.
No Problems with the Bushnell Falcon Binoculars.......2007-01-05
Although they weren't packed securely--just loose in a box--the Bushnell Falcon Binoculars work well and have served us well. My wife especially has enjoyed them at the huge 92,000 seat stadium University of Georgia football games. They have functioned very well, with a sharp image and no mechanical problems. We have enjoyed them very much, and I would recommend them to others.
Product Description

For Small Faces Only.......2007-12-07
I found that unfortunately the eye-to-eye distance (Exit pupil) with this pair is not sufficient. Since I never had this problem with other binoculars, I believe it must be due to the design. Of course I returned the binoculars, but a simple warning or alert would have been preferable to the purchase and return hassle and cost.
Bushnell Binoculars - Great.......2007-12-07
These are exactly what my husband was looking for. Small in size so as not to be bulky. High power. Perfect for hunting or using around the house.
I can see again.......2007-10-31
great binocs...a little bit bigger and heavier than I expected. (my fault)
Great view and very comfortable to use
great product.......2007-08-20
great product for trip to Glacier National Park. Great eye relief, I wear glasses and my wife does not. Great range of eye adjustment, our corrected vision is vastly different. Easy to focus. We would recommend.
Great Binos........2007-06-30
I prefer a 12x bino and these are great value and excellent clarity. The 42 barrel means it is not too large and bulky. Highly recommend them. Great price and a great product. Not too heavy. Feel great in the hand. Good focusing wheel. The case is not great, but then apart from packing most of the time I would have them around my neck, so no big deal. Very pleased with the purchase.

bushnell 16X50.......2007-12-23
very good value. sharp images as long as you brace your arms; 16X also magnifies the shakiness 16 times! probably not as good as leupold or swarovsky, but at under $100 a little forgiveness is justified. a great item to have handy when traveling.
Decent Binocular.......2007-12-21
I had bought this bushnell binocular mainly for star gazing. It didn't help me that much on that. May be I had higher expectations on this item, since I'm a novice. I was expecting the order of magnification like I saw in TV cameras when they zoom in on moon during sports telecasts. But this item is still worth for the money. I could use this to see moon and Mars so far with decent magnification.
Only thing to make sure is hold a steady hand when using or use a tripod.
Focus tab is not really a hinder as others in the review had mentioned.
Very nice!.......2007-12-13
I bought this for my husband as a gift. He enjoys it very much. The resolution is clear, and it's easy to adjust while viewing. Well made yet lightweight. Good product.
Great Buy!.......2007-12-11
I purchased this for my husband and it is well worth the money. I will probably be purchasing a couple more. If anyone is looking for a great pair of Binoculars, look no further.
Very Pleased.......2007-12-03
I bought these for my husband to hunt with. He is very pleased with them.

great binoculars especially for the price.......2007-09-14
Not only are these convenient, but for the price, they offer an extremely wide angle, and good image quality. Lacking are eye diopter adjustments--this is a serious handicap. But for the price, a really good deal.
Bushnell Perma Focus 7x50 Wide Angle Binocular.......2007-07-22
Great binoculars! Very easy to use,,,,,,,, clear and bright! You will be amazed at the quality!
Great!.......2007-06-27
These are great for fast action sporting or even bird watching. I got them for my 4 year old son to use at the Georgia football games. He has a hard time with focus. These work great because all he has to do is look and it there. The size is nice and we have no problem adjusting from his size to mine. Ours came from an Amazon partner... Optic planet... I think. And they were great as well. Super fast shipping and great contact from start to finish.
Bushnell Perma Focus 7x50 Wide Angle Binocular In Tanzania.......2006-11-10
The Bushnell Perma Focus 7x50 Wide Angle Binoculars were the ideal choice for my recent trip to Tanzania and the Serengeti. They worked perfectly for the application needed. A really happy surprise on just how well these worked. As we bounced around on dirt roads and cross country in Land Rovers, the Perma Focus feature was outstanding and made things simple and easy! :-) The magnification level was perfect for almost every scenario we came across. Anything that was outside of about 80 feet came through in crystal clear vivid color and clarity. It really made for up close and personal viewing of all the animals we saw. By far, these were the best investment I made before the trip! I can't imagine being without them now on such an expedition. Really fantastic performance and a great value to boot!!!! The vendor was fast & flawless in the transaction too. In my opinion you won't be disappointed with these binoculars. Troy :-)
WAY COOL!.......2006-08-17
We just got these for a trip to Alaska. I LOVE them! They are so easy to share. The sharpness of the image is AMAZING! My Dad wears glasses and I don't. No problem. We can both see CLEARLY! The amazing part is he doesn't need to have his glasses on! My husbands eyesight is completely different than mine, same story.Very cool item! Very well constructed. Highly recommended!
