Another edition to Bushnell’s popular Legacy range of binoculars, the 10-22x50 deliver a weatherproof Porro Prism system for exceptional image clarity whether you’re focusing in close or at a distance.
These binoculars feature BAK 4 prisms for exceptional light transmission and thanks to multi coated lens elements they deliver outstanding true to life colour and image clarity. They stand up to some rough and tumble treatment as they have a rugged rubber coating which also makes for a sure grip – so you’re in no danger of losing your binoculars should things get a little slippery.
They offer 10 -22x magnification depending on your focus and deliver a close focus range of 6 metres so are best used for scanning for prey or bird watching.
The centre focus dial makes for fast accurate focusing and the eyecups provide long eye relief for prolonged use. Weighing less than a kilo they are also surprisingly lightweight.
Good: Great magnification.
Bad: Not waterproof – only weatherproof.
