huckleberry's Review of Leupold BX-1 Yosemite 8x30 Binoculars
These rated highly in the Audubon 2013 bino review. Still, I am surprised at the excellent images produced by these $99 8X30 glasses. Clear, bright images out to the edges of the field. The long eye relief allows my wife to use them with her glasses on. And by extending the eye cups to their full distance, I too can enjoy them without problems.
The only reason I gave these a 4—and not a 5—is the apparent weakness is the screw out type eye cups. These are somewhat flimsy and I do not expect them to hold up during years of use. But I'm told that Leopold has a very good warranty, so how can I lose?
