These binoculars are worth having in their own right, the discount undoubtedly makes them more tempting. Yes, they offer plenty of magnification and the aperture is large enough but, they also feature fully multi-coated lenses with a roof prism design and anti-reflective coatings. All of that means, light transmission is better, so objects appear brighter and clearer, it helps with the compact design of the binoculars and the optics are more durable.
Aside from the optics, the design features a rubber exterior which improves comfort, grip and durability. It also features adjustable eyecups and a center-focus wheel for more comfortable viewing and ease of use. The binoculars are tripod-adaptable, water and fog-proof and suitable to use in all weather conditions.
Key features: 10x magnification, 42mm aperture, fully multi-coated optics with a roof prism design and anti-reflective coatings, fog and waterproof design with a rubber exterior and adjustable eyecups with a center focus wheel.

Price history: Typically we see these binoculars retail for around $150 when they’re on offer and you shouldn’t really pay more than that, especially as they were released around five years ago.
Price comparison: Adorama: $149.99 | Walmart $149
Reviews consensus: If a good quality build and good optics are at the top of your priorities, this is a good budget-friendly option. It’s a slightly more compact model than the one we think is the best mid-range option on the market.
