    i’m a photographer…with tons of gear from canon, minolta, zeiss, leica etc. I think I’m fairly critical when it comes to the quality of optics.

    I choses the for concerts mainly. I wanted a pair that I didnt care if they got lost.

    For the money, this cheap-o set of binoc’s is damn good. I compared them to the Nikons ($65), the Meades, the Bushnell’s and a few others. I wanted something nice and small for concerts but didnt want a piece of junk that I’d hate to look through. These binoc’s have a metal focusing plate on top, smooth and tight focusing center-roller, heavy rubber covered lens barrels and they’re very light. they have adjustable eye pieces for those with difference prescription eyes/contacts/glasses. It has a very thin nylon string as the neckstrap…feels like a shoelace…probably it’s biggest fault. It comes with a decent case with belt loop and velco closing flap.

    Just received today, are perfect for the money ($12.88). I like the rubber coating that makes them seemingly more durable and weather resistant. They are fairly comfortable on the eye sockets, easy to adjust, and fairly powerful. They are lightweight and very compact, and suitable for carrying (in the case) on a belt. Only minus is the neck string is very thin and the attachment to the binocs is questionable. There are also no lens protectors, but I never use them because they are a pain to keep track of, anyway. Overall I think they are quite high quality for the price.
