BARSKA Deep Sea Marine Binoculars – 7x50 Waterproof Floating Binoculars with Internal Compass & Rangefinder for Boating, Sailing, Fishing, Hunting

These are great. The eye pieces focus individually which is great if for anyone with less then perfect vision. I was worried that would be annoying because I thought I'd constantly have to adjust them both, but the depth of field is so large that I never had to touch them. The batteries install easily to illuminate the compass for nighttime use. My wife had fun testing our the floating/water proof claim. Everything worked great. We used these for a sea kayaking tour and whale watching tour in case you were wondering.

Great for the price. I bought a good set of binoculars in 1969 and they worked great until last year when my boat sunk and they didn't survive. (Got water in the left lens) Actually the right side still works. But, anyway, about the Barska Marines, they are really clear and I like the features, floating, waterproof, rangefinder and lighted compass. They are great for one person only because of the individual focus adjustments, but for a hundred bucks you can buy everyone in the boat their own pair and have lots of spares in case one goes overboard and floats away. Of course they are not Swarovski's but at my age if they last ten years I will probably be done boating anyway and give them to the grandkids. Lots of features for the price, but if you are going to be a rough user you may want to invest in a pair that are a little bit more robust based on the other reviews.

This is my first pair of binoculars! I bought it for field use - 100-300 meter out magnification. My requirements were a rangefinder ruler and a quality product overall. This pair met my expectations. There was a small issue however. I bought mine from Amazon, and got it at significant discount, but with non-functioning compass. Compass is just a simple swivel thing, but it would be nice to have it work. As I often look at open terrain through them, I find that 7 is not enough. This is, of course, not a compass defect, but a lesson I got a privilege of learning. I would prefer to have one focusing nob. There are two - one for each eye. Again, not a defect, just a style of binocular. Overall this is an excellent pair of binoculars.

Decent binoculars for the money. Just wish they had a version without the stupid range finder in the lens. It's worthless and distracting. Would be be 5 stars if they didn't have that crap in the lens.

This is the best darn $105 binocular I've ever bought for boating. Internal compass, shock proof, waterproof and IT FLOATS. Generic user manual sucks, so I followed hints to find other functions. Two watch-batteries were supplied but not installed. Small rubber cap w/CCW arrow & the word "remove" protected an o-ring sealed watch-battery socket. Momentary power-button actuated an internal red lamp, for viewing compass heading and "range-finder" at night. Detailed instructions were supplied for the "range finder", an optical reticle in the right lens, using horizontal and vertical scales with marks 5mils apart. Each mark equals an object of 5 meters(16.4ft) at 1000 meters(3280.8ft) distance. Using a cylindrical slide-rule around the front lens, any distance can be extrapolated if the size is known, and any size can be determined if the distance is known. Not a true rangefinder, but very cool anyway (nautical charts provide height of significant landmarks). Individual eye focusing is not my ideal, but okay as the depth of field is very, very good.

Great Optics. Floats. Bulky, heavy, but solid build. Lame carrying bag. Ridiculess lens caps, never stay on, not even in the bag. Compass sticks, needs no be tapped, but easily readable in the dark. Distance/height calculation complex for quick use... only useful for real sailor types. Right side fogged up after floating for less than 5 min. Probably got wet around one of the seals for the compass, or battery compartment. Next day (29hours later) right side was clear again. Must be the purged Nitrogen. Didnt bother to send to U.S. for repair--shipping too expensive. Removed center pin, and got a great monocular, light weight, confortable, and doenst fog up. Next time I'll do as people from another site did, and buy the Bushnell 7x50, but actually I'm very satisfied w my monocular... if only I could get back half of $119.99 UPDATE: changing from 3 to 2 stars: after a 45min rafting ride, the now monocular floated in ankle deep water for no more than 30min, and after 10 days is still all fogged up. So much for the little guys--stick w a big name

Give these binoculars a 5 stars because they show real clear and a great distance. I'm looking for a pair of binoculars that goes a long distance much farther than these but these are a great pair of binoculars I would buy them again.

I am very impressed with the Binoculars,they have exceeded all of my expectations!! I love the focus ability of both eyes instead of the traditional one eye focus, it Truly makes them a step above all the rest of the Binoculars I have owned or even looked at. And the price was reduced lower than what I thought it could be!! Also I didn't have to do any tracking on my product, Amazon gave me a heads up on where it was, and when I could expect to receive it. Thanks Amazon for great service, great prices, also great products!

The best optics for the price. Range finder is not as expected but despite that the binoculars are worth the price. Good direction indicator within the view finder and with a light. Easy to focus, watch boats on the river and birds. Excellent and would recommend them to anyone. Just do not expect to be able to measure your golf distances. Good early night goggles as they seem to allow more light than many glasses costing much more. Perfect for boating, bird watching, or even touring.

Muy bien todo ok

such great value for money, great glasses

Used it for marine operation like seatrials. It’s worth the price. It comes with a bag and lens protector. I’m happy with the purchase. Delivery time was also fast and in good order.

Buen producto, aunque viene sin pilas, y ni en las instrucciones ni en la web dice qué pilas usa: necesita dos pilas de moneda LR 43. Good product, although it doesn't come with batteries, and the instructions or website don't specify which batteries it needs: It requires two 1.5V LR43 coin cells.
