Dan W.: Use this to see where I hit my archery bag at 20-50yds. My first pair of binos, glass seems clear enough.

Wildseawitch: These are perfect for me, and even though I do wear glass they are just as good without, happy with my purchase. Weight is fine in the hand, but I personally would fin them heavy around the neck, but that's just me. Would recommend.

Festus: Nun....warum Geheimtipp? Weil die Firma Carson hierzulande eher unbekannt und wenig vertreten ist. Im englischsprachigen Raum ist das ganz anders. Dort ist dieses renommierte Unternehmen stark vertreten. Und da ich eine Affinität zu Sportoptiken habe (besitze mittlerweile 13 Ferngläser, 2 Spektive und diverse Teleskope) wollte ich mir auch mal ein Carson anschauen, zumal es im englischsprachigen Raum in diversen Reviews auch sehr hoch gelobt wird. Und das zurecht! Eigentlich habe ich diese Qualität zu dem Preis nicht erwartet. Es ist sehr gut verarbeitet und das Zubehör wie Gurt und Tasche sind hervorragend. Aber vor allem hat mich die optische Leistung beeindruckt. Es bildet gestochen scharf ab! Randunschärfe ist minimalst und geringer als bei vergleichbaren Geräten in identischen Preissegment. Es ist nicht zu schwer und liegt mit seinem "Offene-Brücke-Design" wunderbar in der Hand. Der Fokusring läuft butterweich....einfach toll. Es hat mit seinen 98m zwar ein etwas geringeres Sehfeld als andere Produkte aber macht dieses mit Schärfe, Kontrast und Helligkeit wett. Somit halte ich es für die Vogelbeobachtung (Tierbeobachtung allgemein) ganz besonders gut geeignet. Das...

AQuiia: Work good, for my first Pair of quality binos

Brandon: This is a solid price for a balanced quality. For a casual user who wants something somewhat small for ease of carry but still get a quality view this is as good as it gets. A expensive set that is bulky is likely to not be on your side when you want it, but this one checks all the boxes.

Sem: First time on this brand for me, amazing bino quality, great grip and light robust body, and got this at a promo price. Have used Steiner and Nikon, but I feel this quality is equally competitive, multi coated lens, waterproof fogproof makes this binocular an excellent value for money!

Beach Aggie: Super clear and super easy to use. Better than any other brand until you get up to $400 or more with their products! Even vortex and Leopold don't hold a candle to these dollar to dollar!

Ivan Sinenko: Bought this after extensive research and reviews. Love the quality. Love how clear the picture is and how easy the focus is in these. Have 3 other binoca that cannot come close.

Chris: Overall, I would say the quality of these binoculars are far better than that of the Nikons that many sporting good stores sell. I would highly recommend!!!

Sean G.: Great binoculars! I'm not much of a conisour when it comes to optics, but they work great for me, focus knob feels very nice and very quality, eye relief knobs are nice and stout and don't move unless you want them to, lens covers feel and work as they should. Neck strap quality is so so, but it works perfectly fine for what I need it for. The case is very cheap. One zipper was broken out of the box. It wouldn't zip as you move the zipper, but the other zipper seems to work as it should. As a storage case it's fine, but I wouldn't want to hang the case around my neck and go trucking through the woods. All in all, the binoculars themselves are spectacular and work perfectly fine for my needs. Clear image, no fogging. For the record, I do not wear glasses.
