The powerful 12x power gets you right up and close to the action for more image detail, but at the same time is not so powerful as to make the field of view too narrow and impossible keep the image steady when hand holding the binocular. The characteristics of a 12x50 binocular make it ideal for long range hunting and wildlife observation in locations like the mountains or open plains. It is also a popular choice for astronomy. Whilst viewing with just the hands is possible, these also have a standard 1/4"-20 threaded mount built into the pivot which can accept a tripod adapter, should you want to completely eliminate image shake.
With a choice of 7x, 10x, 12x, 16x or 20x powers the 50mm Bushnell PowerView porro prism series has you covered in just about any situation where you require an affordable binocular that will deliver a bright image in relation to your chosen magnification.
A distinctive feature is Bushnell's InstaFocus lever. Rather than the traditional focus wheel, you can very quickly adjust the focus by rocking the lever. Apart from improving focusing speed, this design also helps to make focusing easier when wearing thick winter gloves.
All models also have fold-down rubber eyecups and a rubber armour exterior that adds a layer of protection increases grip and improves camouflage.
Multi-coated, these full-sized PowerView binoculars have multiple anti-reflection coatings applied to the outermost lenses that increase light capture and transmission. Whilst this is good and to be expected at this price level, it is important to note that more expensive instruments like the Bushnell Legacy WP Binoculars are Fully Multi-coated meaning that all lens elements throughout the optical pathway are treated for an even brighter view.
Bushnell uses BK-7 glass for the Porro Prisms. These have an advantage over roof prisms because the design naturally reflects 100% of the light and thus they do not require expensive mirror coatings to perform at the same level. Thus at this low price point, Porro prisms binoculars like these will usually outperform equivalent roof prism models as they will use cheaper mirror coatings to keep production costs down.
Bushnell PowerView binoculars are boxed with a soft carry case that includes its own carry strap, objective and ocular lens covers, neck strap and cleaning cloth.
Made in China, Bushnell present these binoculars with an impressive 10 year warranty.
