From the Manufacturer
Like the name says, these binoculars are made for water. Splash them, soak them, dunk them - and they'll emerge 100% fog free and dry inside. Perfect for skiers, snowmobilers, anglers and kayakers. True waterproof construction and a rugged, non-slip rubber design makes the H2O series a simple choice for those whose lifestyle borders on the hyper side of active. O-ring sealed and nitrogen-purged for waterproof/fogproof protection in any season, both the fully and the multi-coated optics render bright, clear images. Take them with you - everywhere.

Specifications for this Bushnell binocular include:

• Magnification: 8x
• Objective lens: 42mm
• Field of view at 1,000 yards: 430 feet

Tech Talk
Objective Lens: The diameter of the objective or front lens. The larger the objective lens, the more light that enters the binocular, and the brighter the image.

Field of View (F.O.V.): The side-to-side measurement of the circular viewing field or subject area. It is defined by the width in feet or meters of the area visible at 1000 yards or meters. A wide angle binocular features a wide field of view and is better for following action. Generally, the higher the magnification, the narrower the field of view.

Porro Prism System: In porro prism binoculars the objective or front lens is offset from the eyepiece. Porro prism binoculars provide greater depth perception and generally offer a wider field of view.

Rainguard: Our exclusive, patent pending, hydro-phobic (water-repellent) coating on which condensation from rain, fog or snow forms in much smaller droplets than on standard coatings. Smaller droplets scatter less light which results in increased light transmission and a clearer image. Makes the binocular useful even when looking directly into the driving rain.

Customer Reviews

Good value, crisp optics, a bit on the heavy side.
I bought this for birding and general use, after a recommendation from a California Park Ranger. I'm generally pleased--bright optics with crisp resolution, quick focusing, rugged construction. They are definitely worth the money. My only disappointment is that these binoculars are a bit on the heavy side.

For kids
If you are an amateur bird watcher, never ever come this way. Professionals don't even think about this as a backup. This is for the kids, who are strong enough to carry this around. Also good for guys who want to watch others in the neighbourhood. The eye-piece focusing is poor. The binocular looks like it is rain-proof. Gives decent quality viewing. All together three stars, earned by the price tag and the image quality. Go for it if you are looking for a cheap, decent binocular.
