Compact Zoom Binoculars 25-110x30,Silver/Black

I wish the exit viewing was wider (50-60mm) but you do get 110X zoom. None of the others do this. The Barska I just returned (at 20% restocking fee) did not zoom, the aperture just closes, like looking through a toilet paper roll. Stick with the Sunagor. For this one, you need a tripod. You might get away with a monopod.

I’m not exactly sure what the word sunagor means, but I’d imagine it has something to do with its Japanese roots, and could be a family name or something to do with its purely optic-related business. However, after only around 20-30 minutes with this set of binoculars (which, mind you are tiny in comparison to others, and quite literally fits in your pocket, albeit filling your pocket) I can tell you that the word sunagor means two things in my mind; Overkill, and Quality. When you want to see the flea on the ass of a dog at 50 yards? Sunagor. When you want to not only kill a rabbit, but eviscerate it’s entire being into a thin bloody red mist that decorates everything within a close proximity? Sunagor. My only complaint about this set is that you get exactly what you pay for in a compacted version of a high-powered set of binoculars. At the highest magnification you’ll be able to see a very small area and your heartbeat will be enough to make the things you can see bounce around like a toddler hopped up on pixie sticks and soda-pop. A tri pod is basically necessary for it, unless your hand is extremely steady, in which case you might be able to get up around 50-60x without much problem. However, at its price range and the absolute amount of POWER these things have in them, you won’t be disappointed. That, and in reality, Id doubt anybody has a realistic need, or use for 110x magnification, anybody with any real expectations of quality will invest in something like a range finder or telescope. Overall, for the common man this set of binoculars is almost a little *too* much. I’m in love with it right away and already know I’ll be using it for years to come. If you do purchase them, just know that you are buying what is essentially professional grade equipment that will give you exactly what you ask for, and what you’re asking for is power that is almost Impractical for civilian use.

I knew going in that there would be limitations to using it but I found the optics to be lacking and to move the zoom was difficult without removing them from being looked through. I was hoping for a better product.

Not enough light enters the lens at full mag. You definitely need a tri-pod to use these.

When I got these the zoom knob wouldn't turn and I was getting double vision from them. They are very powerful, actually more powerful than I needed. I ended up returning them and got some Nikon binoculars that while not as powerful, are crystal clear.

Very powerful! Hard to get the picture still when using the max, a tripod a must... Very handy, easy to travel with, without sacrifying power... Recomended for birdwatching and other similar activities..

The first problem is the basic design. I am not a large man: only 6'. The design of these does not allow you to spread the eye pieces far enough to prevent double vision. They are useless as binoculars.The second problem is either faulty assembly or another faulty design. The zoom control either has no lubricant on it or it is under-designed. If it moves the zoom at all it is very sticky and jerky. Again, pretty much unusable.I have been purchasing on Amazon for quite some time and this is far and away my most unpleasant experience.

When using the highest power you only have a very small field of view.
