BARSKAX-Trail 30x80 Binocular w/ Braced-in Tripod Adapter, Black

Wow!. . .30X really gets you out there. I can't believe these are priced at $100!! Smashing deal. I have some glass that outperforms these by a factor of 5 but costs X30! Edge to edge sharpness is limited to about 40% of the center of the glass. On an overcast day, light transmission and contrast gain is about +10-15% of normal vision. The center of the glass is sharp and collumnation is excellent.I use these for terrestrial observation from the front porch - 2 miles to the most distant view - excellent sharpness over the entire range.Caution - all high magnification binos are more difficult to adjust than with low power. If you are not accustomed to binocular adjustment, focus, diopter and intraocular adjustments, you might be disappointed at first. Practice will work out the kinks. Also, for me, these are useless without a tripod. At 7+ pounds, a husky one is better.Because of the high magnification, these are not very useful for general observation - not the best choice for a first pair. However, for a stationary target or a bird in a tree, they are very useful.A prior pair of these got bumped and knocked out of columnation, so moving them around should be done carefully. As with many products, replacement was cheaper than repair.

Pretty impressive in size and also in viewing the sail boats and folks at the dog park here ....the harbor always had 3 blinking lights in the distance answer never knew what they were from until the Braska x were delivered...there are 3 windmills on the island East of us, we can see the pretty clearly considering the distance....a ferry ride of 20 minutes at 7knotts

Things look great through these Binocs. The Mount for the tripod is pretty damn cheap. they keep wiggling. They should put an extra cross bar or something to keep the thing more stable. If it weren't for that I would put 5* without hesitation.

Even on a tripod these are difficult to see anything well. I suspect it's due to lower quality optics which makes these fairly affordable. At this point you can probably do better on your phone's AI zoom.

Well built, focusing knob easy to turn for focusing, light weight for its huge size, powerful and bright at 30x however, not sharp optically. For example, street signs at long distances can't be read, even when the binoculars where on a solid tripod. A disappointing struggle trying to get the left eye focusing adjusted correctly. At times it seems the binocular needs to have an extra fine tuning knob. I don't recommend them at least not good for terrestrial moving subjects, like boats, where there is a requirement to adjust focusing while tracking moving subjects.

These Binoculars are AMAZING.Don’t think twice about buying these!They are even waterproof -We live in the mountains and love looking at the Red Tail Hawks!Amazing product.I don’t spend the time to write reviews unless I’m “blown away”!

Great quality!

It came with some parts missing that must have been done at the factory or someone purchased, removed and glued ....when i can focus they are pretty clear but not spectacular. Id give them a 2
