I wanted zoom binoculars, but these are not as good as the fixed magnification binocularsJun 22, 2010 These zoom from 8 to 16 power, but they are extremely blurry at the higher magnifications. I already have 10 power fixed Pentax binoculars and they performed so well that I naturally went to Pentax when I wanted to upgrade.
If I had it to do over again, I would not have purchased this.

Very nice gadget, excellent opticsMar 10, 2010 It is an excellent binocular, with a very good zoom for its size, and a very decent field of view, even at 16x.
Just one minor complaint:
On warm/humid days, because of the opctics short eye-relief, the lens can get misted up / foggy when you put your eyes close to the rear eyepiece it to see through, this can be very annoying. If this bothers you, get a larger binocular, but if you are looking for small size with high quality optics, at a decent price, get this one without a doubt.

A good buyFeb 24, 2010 I find these to be excellent for the price. I live deep in the woods and like to monitor the comings and goings of the local animal population. They are very easy to operate and give a very sharp image. Haven't tried them in low light, but I'm sure they will do just fine.

Excellent for a compact binoOct 27, 2009 These binocs feel like excellent quality and are extremely compact. They are smaller than I expected and come with a very good case. Just what I needed for my frequent travelling.
It is easy to adjust the variable zoom with one finger, as well as the focus ring, which sometimes needs to be done when adjusting zoom.
The adjustment knob for differing eye strengths pushes in to prevent accidental adjustment.
Clarity is very good, although as should be expected visible light drops at the higher zoom levels.
One beef: there are mountings for a neck strap but none was included in the box.
Otherwise, I am quite satisfied with these binoculars.
