Bushnell Engage Binoculars - Matte Black Finish for Sharp, Clear Views

shopfrombedzzzzzz: Honestly, I would be happy with all busnell's if they were all this ED glass. Really an amazing bargain. I am an optics snob and I have no hint of disappointment with the glass or function. Worth double the price. Just got to try not to buy any more...

RML: These binoculars are the best! They are super lightweight and the clarity is just perfect.

Jaco: I own a pair of Bushnell L-Series 8x42's and they are better built and are optically better. I don't understand it, because it's not suppose to be better than the Engage Ben1042, but it is.

K.D.: 1) gut justiert, nur minimaler vertikaler Versatz links / rechts
2) scharfes Bild
3) Schutzkappen halten sehr gut
besser als die beiden anderen 300€ Ferngläser von Hawke und Minox, die ich vorher probiert hatte, vorallem aufgrund Punkt 1)

Cameron S.: Had these on my watchlist for a while and bought them on a whim when I saw the crazy low price (considering that these are 3 times the price in NZ), figured it was worth the gamble of buying unseen.

Optics are great, CA is much less than other non-ED binoculars I've used, not entirely eliminated but that's almost impossible so meh. Image is bright and sharp, perfectly adequate low light performance. These binoculars are somewhat prone to shake, that is pretty standard for most 10x binoculars, opt for 8x if you have shaky hands. Weight is pretty standard for the category, rubber armour is on the thinner side so I would avoid dropping these binoculars if you can. Comfortable to hold, armour is pretty grippy despite being thin. Locking diopter takes some getting used to, works fine. Focus is slightly stiff but will loosen with time, perfectly usable out of the box. Looks very stylish and proffessional if that matters to you at all.

Accessories are basic, carry case is functionable but flimsy, will be purchasing a better one seperately. Objective lens caps are not the best and pop off the lenses at every opportunity. Strap is functionable but basic,...

Denis: Facile d'utilisation mais il faut avoir un point d'appui.

Denis: Looking through these binoculars is like seeing a movie.
It feels just like these 4K high resolution television wild life documentary.
I use it to watch birds in my feeders from my balcony (2-4 meters).
Image is amazingly clear, sharp, more vivid then in reality, especially up close for birds.

Optics is one of those fields where you get what you pay for.
There is a true difference between a pair of binoculars at 50$ and 250$
I have owned Bushnell products for over 40 years now, to my entire satisfaction.
I recommended these binoculars to bird lovers and everyone else.

56: I bought these from Amazon Warehouse so got a great price point. Very happy with these. I think a lot of them were returned because the 10x42 may have a bit more tendency to black out when looking at the peripheral than some others. But just about any binocular will black out if you don't use it right. As for the images, they're nice and clean with nice color rendition. Interestingly, they do have some field curvature, but the peripheral field is pretty darn sharp, but at a slightly closer focus point. So the net result is an apparent increase in depth of field when viewing 3D subjects like birds in a bush, livestock on a field, etc. To be honest, I'll take field curvature over peripheral coma any day of the week..and in the < $600 price bracket you're going to get one or the other... The sweet spot itself is fairly large. I bought them for birding and they are very nice for that with 8' min focus, very sharp images, great color and very smooth bokeh. Also has a very nice build quality.
