Consumer review (newegg.com)
This replaced my free (company swag) Tasco 8X21 that I take to sports events and camping. No objective lens caps, but it does come with eyepiece caps and case. Stabilization is great, allowing me to focus on details that you could never see by...
Small, light, quick to focus on target. Can work without battery\stabilization as a regular 8X25 binocular. Standard binocular controls and features (main focus knob, right diopter, eye width adjustment, neck strap)
No objective lens caps. Battery size not so common. Costs 10 times the equivalent 8X21 non-stabilized set of binoculars. Size is about twice the size of equivalent binoculars
Consumer review (newegg.com)
Not Leica or Ziess optical quality, but much more affordable .
Solid construction, easy to hold & adjust. Work well for eyeglass wearers. Great optics, easy to use clean & maintain. Have used mine from Alaska to Central America with satisfactory results in clear or salt water. Good strap & carrying case. Excellent...
Heavier than some others, but worth the extra weight in durability.

Consumer review (ciao.com)
These binoculars do provide you with a longer, better view of details for birding at mid-range. However, they demand clarity at far distances. For this reason I would recommend the 10X over the 8X magnification. It is a bit galling that the ikon jumps...

Consumer review (nextag.com)
Great optics. Stablization takes out any shakes - especially good if you are a baby boomer. Center focus wheel could be larger. Stabilzation button in center has to be learned to reach. Once you learn by feel where to focus and where the stablization...
Consumer review (nextag.com)
I have tried the old 12 x 36, own the 10x30 and the 15x50's. 8x25 are excellent on their own but the optics without the stabilization are somewhat short of the sharpness of other high end binoculars. Still you can see more than the sharpest...
