Legacy Reviewer's Review of Browning 8X32 mm Waterproof /Fog Proof Binoculars 63%OFF 880832
I was really impressed with these binos from the moment I opened the box.
Although they're a bit on the heavy side they feel very strong and durable. I use my outdoor equipment like tools so I'm not at all precious about going easy. If I need to put the binos in the bottom of the boat to land a fish then that's where they go :). I've used mine everyday for 4 months on a road trip, they get bounced around the car, have had a fair bit of salt spray from being used out of a kayak, been subjected to windy days on sandy beaches and they still look new. They are my first decent pair and I have been really impressed with the quality and performance of them.
The fit in the case is very snug but makes them compact for putting in a backpack for hiking.
There is a lot of glare on the lenses when looking anywhere near the direction of the sun, I'm not sure if other binoculars suffer from this as badly. I can operate these one handed, so it's easy enough to use the other hand to block the glare. For the price they are great.
Pros: Very clear image, quality feel, bombproof (so far!)
Cons: A bit on the heavy side, focus dial a bit stiff on cold mornings
