3.0 out of 5 stars Bushnell NatureView Plus (13-2000) Binocular, October 22, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Bushnell 8 x 42 Natureview Plus Binocular (Electronics)

This binocular has a nice tight feel. It is easy to focus, light in weight, and is very easy to adjust. The field of view is actually 441 feet at 1000 yards, not the advertised 330 yards. This was an error in the specifications as listed on the Amazon web site. Bushnell indicates that this model ( 13-2000 ) has a 441 feet @ 1000 yard field of view.
The unit I initially received had a minor flaw on the interior coating of one of the objective lenses. Apparently there is some room for improvement with Bushnell's quality control program.
I am waiting for a replacement of this same model, so I would say that overall I am pleased with the unit.

This was a Christmas present for my wife. She wears glasses and has always had trouble with binoculars. These have special feature expecially for glasses wearers. The picture is clear and bright, the binoculars are easy to hold, focus and adjust to accomodate glasses. My wife is ecstatic about these binoculars.

Excellent. Just the right combination of power (8x) and lens diameter (42 mm). Rugged, durable, not too heavy. Fold-down eyecups are great when wearing glasses.
