4.0 out of 5 stars
Great Little Binos. for Specific Situations,

This review is from: Canon 7x17 Flat Ultra Compact Binoculars (Electronics)
These binos. may look like a toy, but rest assured the optics and construction build are fantastic! However, keep in mind that they are best for specific situations such as viewing the opera from the balcony seats. I would not recommend these for serious outdoor nature or bird watching, they simply are not powerful enough. Similarly, I would not recommend these for outdoor sports viewing (e.g. football or soccer) as the field of vision is too narrow. For all other concert/theatre events they are great! Keep in mind that there is no neck strap, but rather a hand strap. The binos. are light enough to render this a minor impediment. Also, I noticed that the focus "sweet spot" is extremely tight...no room for error. I wear eyeglass, and these binos. were very comfortable with the eyeglasss left on. If anyone wants great outdoor/sports binos., check out the Canon IS 10x30s. Those binos. cost a lot more, but are "5 star" and beyond. The 7x17s are lighter and more compact, and will be more than adequate for the viewing situations I described. Another fine offering from a high quality manufacturer.
