 "Yikes! 20 feet close focus" 2010-02-06
By Bob (Cincinnati, OH)


OK ... sorry for the 3 stars, but I just wanted to point out that these binoculars have a whopping 20 feet close focus distance. That's about the worst I've seen. For example, the Eagle Optics Denali 8x42 Roof Prism Binocular have a close focus of 7 feet. People new to binoculars often don't think about close focus, but it's highly desirable. For example, one may be looking at a bird in bush or tree and step closer to get a better look. At 20 feet, you may have to actually step back. Also, for younger kids, they like to look at objects closer to get used to using binoculars for the first time. Sometimes it's useful to look at insects, snakes, etc. that aren't 100 feel away but more like 10-20 feet. I just wanted to make those aware of close focus, so you can make your own educated decision.

 "lemon?" 2010-01-11

i received these binoculars right on time but when i tried to use them i found a split in the water proof seam at the center focus, i was unable to turn the center focus wheel unless i kept them wide open, my eyes also could not fit the lenses, i decided to return them and amazon was awesome! i ordered a pair of bushnell with fully multi coated optics,porro prism, bak4, water proof and amazing eye relief for a little bit more money i was very, very happy (FULLY MULTI COATED makes a huge difference, multi coated is ok and fully coated is just a waste of time)



i saw that others did very well with these but i did not.

 "Good Value for the Price" 2009-10-08
By Mitchell M. Moore (Chicago, IL USA)
I purchased the Barska Blackhawk binocs to use at football games and for hunting. Overall, they are good value for the price.



Pluses:

The focus knob is large and can be easily adjusted while wearing gloves

Reasonably sharp optics



Minuses

4 individual lens caps that can be easily lost or misplaced





I haven't had a chance to try them yet in really low light or driving rain so YMMV.

 "These are NICE" 2009-05-28
By David Crabtree (California, USA)
My wife wanted a compact design for her binoculars but did not want to sacrifice on optics or quality. After alot of looking around in shops and on the net, I ordered these. She has small hands so adjusting the focus on a pair of standard 7x50's was almost impossible. She tried these out and immediately liked them. The eye relief is just a bit less than the 7x50's but not enough to matter wearing glasses. Great feel due to the rubberized grip. These are not useless mini sized, or ultra-lightweights. They feel substantial but will not weight you down on a good hike. The right eye adjustment knob was a bit tight when I first went to adjust it but it has loosened just enough after a few turns. The screw up eye cups work very well and the focus is easy to adjust. Views are clear and crisp and we both like looking through them.

I was a bit dissapointed that there was no strap for the binoculars, but I'd probably replaced it anyway as I did with my others. The case is nothing special either. Just cheap nylon with a cheaper nylon mesh on the inside flap. Oddly, the case does had a decent strap. These little things should mean nothing in the decision to buy these fine optics. I always replace the bags and straps with something that will actually protect the unit and that is of suffcient size so you can get the item in and out easily. Good, comfortable straps are available on-line.

 "Excellent Value" 2009-05-25
By Allan M. Gathercoal (Norcross, GA)
I just returned from the Amazon where I took these Barska knowing that I would put their 'waterproof' to the test. After a month of use there was never a problem with moisture. Optically, these binoculars are very good. Other in my group had more expensive binoculars (Nikon, Bushnell etc.) and we passed each other's around. The Barska were as good or better than the others. They are also fairly rugged. They can take a drop. If there is a negative, it is with design for the neck strap and the cheap strap that comes with the set. It sucks. The strap interferes with your hand placement. Outside of that, and especially considering the cost, I strongly recommended these binoculars. 4.5 stars.
