What is the magnification of these binoculars

My 7 year old grandson loves them. I suspect they do not have a good quality of magnification but are totally appropriate for a little guy who has an excellent imagination. Lots of really good play time and have survived many bounces off the floor and treehouse.

Surprisingly, it does have magnification and its clear. It is still a toy, so do not expect the magnification to be that of real binoculars. My grandson wears them on his belt loop and takes them with him everywhere he goes. He is 2 and 1/2 and loves them.

I'm sorry to say I don't know. These will be a Christmas gift for my grandsons, so they haven't been opened yet. They're 7 and 9 years old and have taken in interest in birds. Even though they haven't been opened yet, I can see what they look like. I was a little disappointed when they arrived. They look pretty flimsy.

Thank you Brook S. for your request. I believe that the binoculars weigh approximately 23.5 ounces (667.0 g). In all honesty, I purchased the Bushnell Nature View Bird Watching Binoculars as a gift for my wife. We are avid bird watchers and nature photographers, and both of us have been using compact binoculars. So I wanted to surprise her with this pair. And she loves them! Unfortunately, I have a problem in which I have trouble using them, and I know this sounds strange - but true - my facial feature are a bit wider in reference to the distance between my pupils, and this model of binoculars just won't quite expand to the width that are comfortable for my vision. But they fit my wife perfect and as I said she loves them. For the majority of bird watcher, nature and outdoor enthusiasts, and sporting events, I don't see how you could go wrong with this pair. Not only are they waterproof, but the optics, and construction design are first rate. Thank you once again Brook S. Wishing you and family good health and the very best in life.

The magnification is idea for sporting events. I would not consider any stronger magnification. These are very high quality binoculars with some special features ideal for birding (e.g. fully coated Nikon optics). You may not need such optics for a well lit sporting event, but they will make the viewing experience superior to lesser binoculars (if you can afford the cost). Fully coated optics which gather much more light than typical uncoated optics. This makes for a much brighter image. Ideal for low light and back-lit birding. Do not go any stronger for a sporting event otherwise you will be focused on too narrow of a range.

The useful magnification is about 140x for astronomical purposes. Beyond this you're going to get fuzzy images. Don't be fooled by extravagant claims.

They are not 30x60 they are not night vision, I am not sure of the power As a pure estimate 10x50 perhaps, They offer good magnification, when I bought them I was aware of the wishful Numbers claimed by evading the feedback, one buyer had worked out the magnification specs He commented the numbers claimed were rubbish, however they do have good power in my view Well worth the price.

there are 10x and 20x interchangeable eyepieces, there are four lens settings on the rotating disk. I'm not sure of those magnifications, though.

Don't know. I am pleased with the binoculars for birding-sharp, clear image, decent brightness. Monarch series received high ranking in Cornell ornithological lab evaluations.

Yes, they're excellent binoculars. Not as large as ones used for bird watching, but bigger than small "opera" glasses.

These binoculars hinge in the middle and the IPD ranges from about 55mm minimum to a maximum of 70mm at the widest. I hope this helps.

Marnee, We are not experts on this issue and this is the first set of binoculars we had purchased in a few years, but we use them to view birds in our tree tops, 40, 50, 60 feet up. We also view birds further away, of course, but these binoculars are well suited to close viewing.

Jonathan, They are rated to 12 feet. Fantastic birding binoculars. Not really for use with butterflies, since you have to focus closer.

Don't remember the exact eye relief but both my wife and myself both wear glasses and love these binoculars for birding, etc. No vignetting or other noticeable problems as with other binocs I have owned. Can't beat em, for the price.

To be honest, mine Works really nice even at 125X. About clarity in my opinin at 100x is the average. Please just learn how to use them porperly. Ive had very good moments with my binoculars for around 2 years.

I bought them for my 14 year old son, he says they are great for bird watching. I picked the magnification levels based on info from a birding publication as the best for the price. We haven't been disappointed.

I purchased these binoculars for general scenery viewing. They are compact, not bulky, not too small, let in a lot of light, and have a big field of view, all of which make these just right for general viewing. I also think the 8X magnification is maximum, before the hand shake and narrower field of 10X and above affect the using experience.

Don't know but I would strongly recommend the Celestron 10X42 Outland binoculars instead of the 8X42. The extra magnification with the wide 42° field of view is worth.

I can,t tell you the distance but it really magnifies a long way. I really enjoy the binoculars when I am in the mountains etc. Well worth the money.
