I am very impressed with the Travelite series. These small binoculars are great for kids and travel. These are the only binoculars (for the price) to have if you where glasses because of there long eye relief. Since I stopped taking off my glasses every time I wanted to see through binoculars I use my binoculars more often. These are clean crisp plastic optics that are super light weight and easy on the eyes. I have purchased a second set of these and found the 10X a little to much magnification and like the 8x better. For kids the 8x is much easier for them to find targets quickly especially when birding. I have tried the zoom models in the store and the images are not a sharp as the standard models.

Very good binoculars, very pleased. I knew going in that as power increases, the ability to hold the binoculars steady becomes increasingly difficult. These aren’t bad. Field of view is narrow, that’s only complaint and with the otherwise product quality, it’s minor.

Purchased for a trip to St.Louis. Could clearly see players in the dugout from upper deck. Carrying pouch is lightweight and easily sits on your belt. The perfect traveler for me.

I purchased these to replace a pair just like them that I disassembled the eye piece to remove a leaf, while high in a tree, where I dropped the diopter adjusting eyepiece, never to be found.

The original pair was used for hunting and they took a moderate amount of wear and abuse for 10 years. Never had a problem with them for those 10 years, until the “incident”. The optics on my original pair were super clear from edge to edge, gathered massive light, the focusing mechanism was always good and tight, as was the eye width adjustment. They saw rain and snow, dirt and dust, and with reasonable care, were the best field glasses I had owned.

These new glasses are super clear, light weight, and tight, just like the old pair. They are very light weight and just an awesome choice for field glasses when you do a lot of walking and hiking. You can spend more money, but I don’t know why anyone would. You can spend less money too, but these are well worth the $96 with shipping I paid for them. Purchased through adorama camera in July 2006.

This is the binocular for me. I’ve spent much time researching. And knowing nothing about binoculars, it wasn’t an easy job. I didn’t know a roof lens from a any other lens. But I did my homework and liked everything this one offered. I have macular degeneration and had some reservations. I can see my feathered friends really good now.

Sincerely,

Janet
