Bushnell Excursion 8 x 32

These binoculars in my experience are just about worth the $140 I paid for them. I use them for wildlife and seem to be more than competent for this use. They are very comfortable on the eyes. The strap and carry case were nice too. They also claim to be waterproof and seem
to handle rain just fine.
The material the binoculars are made from gives good grip and i've had no problems dropping them on rainy days. I love the sharpness of the picture, it makes the birds look like they're just a foot away! The weight is also another plus point for me as I can hardly feel them in my pocket!
I usually have trouble focusing binoculars with my gloves on but I can quite easily focus the binoculars which is great so I can keep my hands warm and focus my binoculars!
The only slight downside to these binoculars is the close focus length, compared to others it doesn't seem so great but i seem to be doing just fine with it so i cant really complain about it.
I seem to be bird watching a lot more than previously as these binoculars are easier and more lightweight than my previous pair.
Overall I think these binoculars are fully worth the money and would buy them again if mine broke. I would give them a 89/100 , not full marks because of the close focus distance that other users of these binoculars may dislike because of their particular use of the binoculars.
