I had spent many weeks researching which binoculars I would like to spend the money on. After much reading and price checking on the web, I found that the Bushnell Legacy WP 10x50's were exactly what I wanted. I had a smaller compact pair of Bushnell Binocs but wanted something with more power, yet not too large you could not carry with you on day trips. These are large binocs but not as large as others. I intend these to be used for birding and ball games so I can watch line on football Saturday from near the top of "The Swamp". The price could not be beat as they were being discontinued. They arrived in very short time so we could take them with us on the camp trip. They adjust and set up very easy. If I do have any negatives on them, it would be minor. The protection caps over the ends fall off VERY easily so take care when removing from the carry case. The case itself is too large for the binocs. They swim inside the case. I can actually carry both them and the smaller inside the case. The actual strap that ties to the binocs is small and really should have a larger neck piece as the weight of the binoc will wear quickly. A larger padded neck piece would have been better. Again, they are picking little negatives, but the binocs are great and worth the price.
