For any binoculars to work right you need a bright day or a lighted object to view. If you have the right light and the right focus you will be amazed at what you can see through the 10-30x50 Gladiator binoculars. To the naked eye a tree a half mile or so away is just a tree. Through the 10 or 12 power view with these binoculars it becomes a tree with individual branches. Zoom in a little and it becomes a tree with identifiable birds visiblle on the limbs. Zoom in some more and get the right focus and you can actually see insects flying around the leaves. These are fantastic binoculars and as good as any you will get by spending much more money. I never go to a football game without these binoculars. Now I not only can tell if I know somebody sitting on the other side of the stadium I can actually read what's written on their T-shirt. These are fun binoculars.
