I bought this as a gift for my father and have been fortunate enough to enjoy it as well. The image is good, the double focus is good, and the battery life seems fine. I don't see a lot of practical use for this monocular, however it is a lot of fun to play with. An entry level device, decent enough grip, with room to improve the illuminator. Overall I'm pleased with this purchase.

I bought these for my wife for Christmas.
She would have preferred binoculars but they were much more expensive.
She is very happy with this item.
Easy to use and fun.
