Reviews & Ratings for Redfield Rebel 8x32mm Binocular — 14 reviews — Page 1

Wanted a cheap but quality pair of binoculars for my bug out bag. Picked these and so far for the price I am very happy with what I got . I would recommend for a entry level pair of binoculars . I plan on using these in nasty dirty environment with nowhere near the care you would give binoculars.

For the price, it's good. 5/5 for construction; feels dense and solid, fit and finish are surprisingly good. Knobs have the right amount of friction and dampening. Optically it's sharp but lines and edges have a noticeable amount of purple fringing, even in the center. Will be used for hunting and 3D; nice enough yet cheap enough to not worry too much about damaging.

I have many binoculars including some excellent German brands, but this little Redfield doesn't give up anything to more expensive glass. Highly recommended especially if you have had C-spine surgery and want to minimize the pull on your neck.

I bought the Redfield Binocular Package as a gift for my 9 year old grandson. My experience with Redfield products to date has been limited to a rifle scope that I mounted on a 17 HMR. However, I am very familiar with the Leopold, the parent company, so I was very comfortable buying the Redfield binoculars. I was looking for the best quality I could get under $100.00. After all he is only 9 years old.

Like the next guy, I always expect more than what I pay for and this time my expectations were met. They have a certain heft and feel that is more in line with a more expensive pair. The glass is much better than expected. Now when my grandson is with me in the field he can see what I see without having to share mine.

And thanks to OpticsPlanet.com for their free S&H and hassle free ordering.

Real good eye relief for eyeglass wearers. Nice and compact to bring on vacation or for hunting. The binoculars we received were black which I really wanted anyway. The only negative is the lens covers are a pain to remove...similar to a lens cover on a camera (pinch and pull off). They feel well made and are a bargain for the price. Wouldn't hesitate to buy again if I needed another pair of compact binoculars.I thought about getting 10x32mm but the 8x32mm is so clear and bright that I don't even feel like I need the extra magnification. Good deal Redfield!

After using a Redfield Tracker 3-9x scope on my rifle for years, it only seemed right to buy good quality binoculars of the same brand. They are true to form and very clear and sharp.
Pros: size, weight, ease of use & price.
Cons: none

Wonderfully compact, with quick focus adjustment, clear image, and wide 7.5-degree field of view. Most impressive is the ~4-foot close focus -- a great feature for wildlife viewing. The ocular rain quard is perfect, and the stretchy cushioned strap is sized consistent with the overall compact design.
My only (truly MINOR) complaints: the objective lens caps, while attaching firmly, are separate and might be easily lost. Also, the diopter adjustment is quite stiff (that's good: it won't wander out of adjustment easily), and sports an appropriately grippable adjustment ring -- which, once adjustment is set, becomes the harshest element of an otherwise comfortable exterior. (I suppose for binoculars that would be swapped around a lot, this would be useful -- but for most folks' personal binocs, my experience is frequent diopter adjustment will be unnecessary.)

But those are really minor nits -- the bottom line is tremendous value and utility for the price.
Pros: Compact, clear , incredible close-focus, economical, nice strap
Cons: Separate (easily-lost) objective lens covers, gnarly diopter adjustment grip

Bought this product expecting that what I read regarding the company to be American. First thing I saw after taking it out of the box was CHINA printed on the bottom of them, very disappointed. Overall product though, it gets the job done, I use it for a spotter to help adjust my scope for shooting.

worked great except on cold foggy mornings, every time I went to put them to my face they were fogged, I wipe it off and start to glass only to have them fog up again. On mornings or days when its just cold no fogging. The same cold foggy day my scope ( also a Redfield)did not fog at all.
Pros: light transmision, image quality, color, price
Cons: fogged more than I would like

quality equal to more epensive phase coated binocs
Pros: compact,quality
