Pros and cons

According to our binoculars expert

With 10x magnification, you can bring distant subjects closer and still see plenty of the surroundings.
On a cloudy day, you can see clear images through the medium-sized exit pupil.
Thanks to the waterproof design, you can use the binoculars in the rain or on the water.
With the average field of view, you can see less of your surroundings than with a wide field of view.

Description

Spot birds and see details in nature with the Vortex Diamondback HD 10x42 Binoculars. These binoculars magnify the image 10 times, so you can see more details while still keeping a wide view of your surroundings. You can use this magnification for most activities, like birdwatching. Thanks to the average amount of light that comes in, you’ll see bright images even on a cloudy day. These binoculars are less suitable for use at dusk.

Review is 9,0 out of 10.

Great binoculars for this price.

Clear picture
8x magnification is usually sufficient in the woods
Stuck in the hand
Slightly larger in size due to magnification and brightness.

Not too heavy and with the comfortable carrying strap it is no problem to take the binoculars with you for longer trips. The binoculars are also shockproof and a rain shower is no problem either.

Review is 6,0 out of 10.

Optics are very disappointing.

Fits well in the hand
Matching pouch bag
Significant distortion on the outside of the image: straight lines become curved (fishbowl effect)

This viewer was to replace a porro prism 7x50 that was more than 50 years old. Then you expect the image to be better, but no. It is true that the image is sharp and clear for the most part and the magnification and angle of view are slightly better. On the other hand: the distortion at the edges and the blurry bottom part of the image. The latter may be caused by the connection of the eyepieces to my glasses. No problem with my old 7x50. Viewer returned. I want to make progress with my purchase...
