4.0 out of 5 stars compact to carry about, July 8, 2003
By 
"albahr3" (Tucson, AZ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Olympus Outback 10x25 RC II R All-Weather Compact Roof Prism Binocular (Electronics)
I bought this from Gold Box offer. Only 4 stars because it is fairly expensive compared to competition, but you pay for what you get.

Made in China. Good optics - I looked for collimation errors (do both eyes point in the same direction), and chromatic distortion (rainbows around objects, especially near the edge of field of view) and found nothing to complain about.

Compact - only 5" x 3" x 2" inside the soft leatherette case with belt loop, I carry them just about everywhere (how often have you wished that you'd brought binoc's along, but your 10x50's were just too bulky to bother with).

Collapsable eye cups for folks who wear glasses (me). Woven nylon neck strap that kind of looks like a shoelace. Claims weather-resistance and UV protection.

I find it fiddly to focus - two hinges across the bridge, instead of just one in the center, makes it kind of hard for me to adjust the center-to-center spacing for my eyes. Center-focus wheel could use a finer thread pitch.

No setting scale on the right eye adjustment, so it's not easy to reset to your prescription after you loan the binoc's to another person.
