The Olympus 8x40 DPS I are porro-prism-style compact binoculars. The manufacturer says that this model offers an extra-wide field of view, 8x magnification and large 40mm objective lenses for good performance in low-light conditions. But do they...

My daughter's just given me one of these for Father's Day. What a difference it makes compared to the polypropylene one that came with the binoculars. They're a pair of Celestron 15x70, and I would urge Celestron to supply a metal tripod adaptor as...

Used for horseracing and casual recreational use, good bright image, good magnification (10x) quite large size but fairly light and still seem to be well constructed.

An excellent pair of binoculars, a good feel in the hand, easy to focus and good clear views. Really impressive optics.
