Bushnell Falcon 10x50 Wide Angle Binoculars (Black)
An exceptional go-everywhere binocular, the Falcon is a great companion for sporting events, sightseeing outings, nature study, backpacking, theatre or concerts. Features include Bushnell porro prism coated optics for super sharp images. Affordably priced, and offered in two magnifications, these binoculars provide the detail that you would expect from a Bushnell product.
Great for stadium sports as well as hunting, the Bushnell Falcon is the standard in a wide-angle binocular. The durable design and finish allow for use in harsh conditions and rugged terrain. Coated lenses are helpful to keep fog out of vision and fold-down eyecups protect eyeglass lenses from scratching. The InstaFocus lever functions smoothly with just enough tension to control the magnification properly.

Bushnell Falcon 10x50 Wide Angle Binoculars (Black) Reviews
Buy with confidence. If you are looking for an excellent quality binocular that rivals those going for $150.00 these are your nocs. These binoculars are amazing; powerful, easy focus, truly amazing and all for $28.00. Disregard the people who are wishing for a $300.00 pair of binoculars for $28.00.
I have full field of view both ways. I've had these binoculars for three years now. 4. With the Nikon and Luepold models, the eye relief is huge,and my glasses make no difference. The Bushnell Falcons are heavy. The focus controls on the Bushnell Falcon are good. Images are clearer and crisper. I bought them for hunting and they have been worth the money.
I wear glasses and I need glasses to correct double vision, and with the Bushnell Falcons, I lose a lot of field of view because of the poor eye relief. On the other hand, if you can spend more for binoculars you probably should. 1. 3.
The Bushnell Falcon is good for the cost if you don't want to spend more. Without glasses, the Bushnell Falcons have acceptable field of view. The Bushnell Falcons have terrible eye-relief. Carrying them around on your neck all day is a pain in the, um, neck.
2. I'm finally in the market for new ones and I compared them to two binoculars in the $125-$200 range, the Nikon Trailblazer and the Leupold Acadia. Here's some notes on the differences:. The Nikon and Leupold models have much better field of view.
If you can afford better binoculars, then get them. 5. The adjustable eyepiece is ok, but I find that it moves too easily and I have to adjust it every time I bring the binoculars up for use.
The glass is better on the Leupold and Nikon.
Excellent product. Like these better than his. Bought these after using my brother-in-laws Minolta 10x50s.
The best way to see what I'm talking about is by picking up a pair of these binocs and then comparing them directly with a decent pair. Colors focus at slightly different points and a good lens has to bring them all together into one crisp image. They'll probably stay in your drawer and quash any interest you have in either viewing celestial or terrestrial (or in some cases, telestial) objects. To get GREAT optics, plan on spending six or seven hundred clams, and more than a grand for super-photo quality optics. The basic rule of thumb is to NOT TO BUY CHEAP. Buying these are like buying a cheap bike. Now please realize, even NIKON isn't considered GREAT, just decent.
There are so many things going on when binoculars are focusing an image, things like chromatic aberration. You won't regret it. But, as with bicycles and everything else, there is usually a point of diminishing marginal return somewhere along the way. So what are you doing still reading this. In short, these binocs will probably last at least a lifetime because they're so poor in rendering a respectable image.
(These Bushnells aren't that bad, but your eyes deserve crisp, contrasty images, and with these binocs, you'll find yourself first focusing and then refocusing, vainly trying to find that sweet spot of clarity that never comes). Also, if the people who gave these binocs a good review knew what they were buying, they wouldn't be buying entry level Bushnell binocs. Point your mouse to a NIKON or try to find a pair of these used. You should be able to find them cheap.
If your binocs have Busruby-coated lenses, run, don't walk away from them. Seriously, buy a NIKON.
I could just make out the 4 big satellites and I live in the suburbs of a major city. I'm giving them five stars because I think they're great value for the money. The lens caps are cheap, the case is a bit cheap too. I looked at Jupiter a few nights ago, and had just the slightest trace of optical aberration. But the binocs themselves are awesome.
Great view, easy to focus, and no distortion when looking at landscapes. Locally in stores they were twice that much. I can't wait to look again when I'm out in the middle of nowhere. I paid $29 for these binoculars.
