Very disappointing - Bushnell 12X50mm Spectator Sport Porro Prism Permafocus Roof Binoculars

I didn’t expect these $100 binoculars to perform like a $3,000 pair. But I DID expect them to perform better than my $25 cheapos I bought 20 years ago! I got these 12X50’s to replace my old 8X25 auto focus binoculars I use for work (law enforcement). I’m now working in a rural area and wanted a little more magnification. As soon as I tried these I noticed everything seemed slightly out of focus, no matter the distance. Street signs, address numbers, license plates etc. that I could clearly read with my old cheapos, were barely discernible with these new binoculars. Not only that; even though these new ones have objective lenses twice the size as my old ones (50 mm vs 25 mm), my old ones have a brighter image and a larger field of view! I have uncorrected 20/20 vision so I know that’s not the issue. Very disappointing because I have had good experiences with other Bushnell products I have owned. Now I have to go to the trouble of returning these.
