Whilst not as compact as the equivalent roof prism models, the simpler Porro prisms used in these more traditionally shaped Tasco Essentials 7x35 often makes for a more rugged binocular with better quality views at the budget end of the market. This is because these prisms do not require any expensive coatings to ensure total internal reflection and thus helps to maintain relatively good image quality and brightness whilst at the same time ensuring that these binoculars remain ultra-affordable.
The very moderate 7x magnification is ideal for medium to close range uses and is beneficial in many ways and in many circumstances. Firstly it makes it much easier to keep the image steady and shake free.
The 7x power also helps the Taso binoculars maintain an extremely wide field of view, which has numerous advantages, but at close range, it really helps you to quickly locate and follow your subject. Scanning wide open spaces looking for objects of interest are also easier with a wide view.
Then you have the 7x35 configuration which produces a generous 5mm exit pupil, especially when you consider that the 35mm lenses are relatively small. This that ensures that for a mid-sized binocular, this is a more than capable performer in low light conditions.
Therefore with their ample exit pupil, moderate power and extremely wide field of view these mid-sized Tasco binoculars are easy to carry about or pack away and a fantastic choice for birders, hunters or nature and wildlife enthusiasts who frequently find themselves in dark forests or out at sunset or sunrise and observing nature at relatively close ranges.
