Bushnell PermaFocus 12 x 50mm Binocular

Bushnell PermaFocus 12 x 50mm Binocular

The affordably priced PermaFocus binoculars from Bushnell offers optimum magnification at long distances. The wider field of view makes them ideal for spectator sports, distant wildlife observation or winter use with gloves, and fully coated optics means the action is bright and crisp. Ergonomic rubber housing for a non-slip grip.

Very Disappointed, 10/25/2009

Overall Rating: 1 out of 5 1 out of 5

I had previously purchased this product and loved it so I decided to purchase a second pair. We were very disappointed, they are supposed to be focus free. However the right eye was blurry to all that tried it. I returned that pair and reordered another pair that pair was only clear when looking through the binoculars with one eye closed when looking through with both eyes open it was not a clar field of vision. Would not recommend this product to anyone!

Review 2 for Bushnell PermaFocus 12 x 50mm Binocular

Bushnell Perma Focus binoculars, 09/22/2009

Overall Rating: 4 out of 5 4 out of 5

A good value for the money. I purchased the 12x50 model and was somewhat disappointed that it's more difficult to view details on distant images as the extra magnification also magnifies instability (shaking, moving, etc.). However, the ability to simply look through them, even with eyeglasses, without focusing is a big plus for getting a quick look at distant objects/persons. Given a chance at comparison between 10x50 and 12x50, I might favor the 10 power model for detailed viewing. Overall I am quite pleased and recommend this item.

Bushnell Binocular, 10/01/2008
By Papax7, Atlanta, Ga
Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

Purchased the Busnell PermaFocus 12 x 50mm Binocular for my wife a few weeks ago to watch the grandkids football games. She was more than pleased with the clarity and easy to use. The 12x power causes you feel you can reach out and touch the object being viewed.
We both are very pleased with the result of the product and felt it was a good dollar value for the product.
The only downside experieced is when I wear eyeglasses, ... it can be done but is more diffcult to adjust your eyes to the lens.
We would rate as 5 star.

Hi
I have used a similar product in the past but these are superior to those. I use these in my boat because of the instant focus feature. Anyone with a boat or a moving vehicle know trying to keep in focus is very hard. Thease are not the most clear optics but for the price and conveinence they are hard to beat.

Awesome!, 06/30/2008

We took my Father-in-law's advice and ordered this item. He's purchased more than a few pairs of binos, and he doesn't mind spending money on his toys. I read a WM review from a guy who said he can see sans eyeglasses and I must agree. It's fabulous to be able to use them and not have to fuss with glasses, focusing, adjusting the fit... especially when handing off from person to person. Things look as if you're looking at a 3-D picture because everything is in focus at the same time. I thought I'd be using them to get a better look at the small birds on my deck. Maybe if the deck was on the neighbor's property! Or on a football field... This is a fantastic instrument at a great price.

Great Binocs, 09/06/2007
By docdaddy, Winsted, MN.
Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

The self-focusing feature on these binocs save me a lot of focusing time, since I have one good eye and one that needs correction. I can put these binocs to my face and see clearly instantly.
