Title: There are better choices out there.
Review: I had one of these and wanted to purchase a second to keep with my backpacking stuff. When looking for a second one on line I found there were many other models available. I decided to order a dozen different models to try them and make a decision. This model had by far the worst optical quality of all the models I tried, it was a definite step below the all the others available. If you're looking for something inexpensive and compact like this model try theCarson Close-Up Monoculars, it is similar in price and size and offers a much better image. Another good choice in this price range is theBRUNTON 8x22 mm Monocular - 81-00682. It is waterproof and has a very good image also. However, it is a bit larger and it's close up focus is only about 15 ft. If cost is no object, the hands down winner of my survey was theNikon 7x15 High Grade Monocular.
