[8x] These are bigger than a pair of Nikon compacts I have but the small weight and size disanvantage is negligible. The quality of the image and ease of acquiring your subject and focusing quickly is well worth it. We have two pairs of these. I liked my wife's pair so much that I sold the Nikons and bought another pair of these. They also have an incredible waranty.

[3.25 mm] Since Ive never had a binocular before, I had to rely on internet reviews and numerical specs. Im glad I bought this bino, it is so easy to use and the optics really amazed me. IT didnt take long to adjust and Im now able to pick out birds among the leaves and twigs.

[26 mm] I bought these binoculars for birdwatching. They are built quite well, not too heavy, and are adequately protected. They give me a bright crisp clear image. They are easy to focus, without the centre focus wheel being too easily turned. I would recommend these binoculars especially for those on a tight budget. BH Photo gave good service. Packed the time well for shipping to Australia. I would consider buying from BH Photo again.

[9.8' / 3 m] Careful not to order the Model 80 by mistake. Also an Alpen Teton 10x42, but not with the Abbe prisms.
These binocs are insanely bright. Like going from watching and HD movie to watching one in 3D IMAX. Very impressed with them for this price. I could have used a tad more eye relief but that's nit picking.

[26 mm] I ordered these for my wife so she would have them handy in the sunroom for looking at wild ducks in the lake behind the house. She loves the light weight, ease of focusing and the color. What you get in quality vs the money spent makes this brand about the most bang for the buck on the market. As usual, B&H Photo was very great to deal with shipping being very prompt.

[Center] I was looking for a small, light pair of Binoculars to take on an upcoming trip to Denali. I wear glasses and most binoculars don't have enough eye relief so I need to take off my glasses. These advertise a 16mm eye relief and I was very pleased that I can indeed use these binoculars with my glasses. The image quality is good so when you combine the size, weight and ability to use with glasses, these binoculars fit perfectly with my needs.
