focus

[island hunter]

Hey guys , i just found a Bushnell focus free binoculars for $20.

they are 10x50.

my question is ?, have you used them, how do they peform in the elemements and does auto focus really work.

with limited testing this afternoon i was able to focus on moving car plates a mile up the road. this seems to be a great score just wondering how they have been for you.

For $20 you can't lose.

I don't think that they're really 'auto-focus' - more like, always focused; - whether you're looking at something close or something else far away.... they'll not need fiddling with.

For 20 bucks, I'd say, give them a go, and let us know how well they work. I've dropped more than 20 bucks on a pair of socks!

Worst case scenario - you'll always have a back-up pair with you on a trip if you end up buying something a little bit fancier if these puppies don't work out as well as you hoped they might.

You can lose $20.

Take the $20 buy a case of beer. Take two empty bottles, tie them together and use them for glassing.

Make sure you use Corona.
The bottles are clear.

Even the brown ones will be clearer than looking thru Bushnells.

I HAD a pair, they were actually quite clear (for what they are). They bit the dust last year, trip to Vernon lake in Nov. Never seen rain like it, I might of well just submerged them in a bucket of water for 3 days. But for that price go for it, but have a back up.
