pros: clear image, compact design, good contrast, small and lightweight best uses: opera, orientation, surveillance describe yourself: birder, casual/recreational

i like to hike a lot and bird watch when convenient.

your bird flew off already?

just got done watching wild turkeys and the rest of birds at my feeders and i'm still giddy.

i'd recommend this for birdwatchers, commuters, school students with vision problems, and theatre goers.

i bought this for my kid, we started doing birdwatching trips regularly this year.

pros: compact, quality lenses, strong construction best uses: bird watching, security, yachting describe yourself: casual/recreational

not for serious birdwatchers or salt water sailors, who want more performance and therefore will tolerate more weight and size.

nevertheless for birding etc, i would hesitate to reccomend any of the pocket binoculars.

i bought these binoculars as a gift for my dad, who is into birding.
