Title: You get what you pay for
Product review: I bought these because they had long eye relief for a girl friend with glasses to use, and because they were cheap. It is difficult to get the right eye adjusted, because the adjustment ring is very hard to turn. The focus is very slow-you have to turn the knob a lot to focus a little. They won't focus very close, and the field of view is very narrow. I didn't realize how poor they were until I compared them to a pair of Bushnell 8x40 porro prism binoculars of the same cost. Despite having larger objective lens the Barskas were noticeably darker, and the image quality was poorer. You'll get a lot more for your money with porro prism models. If you have to have roof prism binoculars, don't get these, and try before you buy!
