These are my first upscale binoculars, replacing a 35 year old Sears 10x50 ultra wide angle binoculars with broken focus. What an improvement! These are light weight (12 oz less than my old clunker), much brighter, remarkably wide field of view, sharp edge-to-edge, comfortable, well made. The rubbberized grip feels good.
This model comes with rubber lens caps that stay with the unit (after you thread the strap through the eyepiece cap) but can be easily removed and stored, two straps (small and large padded) plus a chest harness that clip to pre-mounted 6" hanger straps, a soft bag, a semi-hard case (7 oz) and a small lens cloth.
Inter-eyepiece spacing is adjustable 59-75 mm ("PD" for glasses). Minimum focus is about 7' for my old eyes, less with my glasses. The FOV is at least 10% wider than my old pair which claimed 420 ft at 1000 yds.
"Adapt to tripod" feature means you can buy an adapter ($15) for use with standard tripods.
The wide FOV and other specs (light weight, ED glass, etc), and a reasonable price, drew my attention. For general purpose binoculars, I can't imagine a better product. Recommended. Get more detail about Bushnell Legend Ultra HD 8 x 42 Binocular.
