Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Magnifying life does, indeed, include sea life. And these are just the binoculars to do it. Our legendary 7x50mm Marine binoculars are a premier choice for spotting marinas, deadheads, or the fisherman's best friend, feeding birds. Built to withstand the conditions that come along with the nautical world, they are not only nitrogen-purged to provide reliable waterproof/fogproof performance - the 13-7501 models are even hermetically sealed to further assure no moisture creeps in. Impressive light transmission from BaK-4 porro prisms, multi-coated optics and large UV-coated objective lenses brighten images from dusk-to-dawn. And, all models not only float, but easy-grip rubber armoring protects and provides a secure hold should things get rough. Always nice, should an unexpected swell or throttle burst take you by surprise.

Specifications for this Bushnell binocular include:

• Magnification: 7x
• Objective lens: 50mm
• Field of view at 1,000 yards: 380 feet

Tech Talk
Objective Lens: The diameter of the objective or front lens. The larger the objective lens, the more light that enters the binocular, and the brighter the image.

Field of View (F.O.V.): The side-to-side measurement of the circular viewing field or subject area. It is defined by the width in feet or meters of the area visible at 1000 yards or meters. A wide angle binocular features a wide field of view and is better for following action. Generally, the higher the magnification, the narrower the field of view.

Porro Prism System: In porro prism binoculars the objective or front lens is offset from the eyepiece. Porro prism binoculars provide greater depth perception and generally offer a wider field of view.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bushnell warrants Katrina, June 9, 2007

By	Mark Truxillo (Houston, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Bushnell Marine 7x50 Waterproof Binocular (Electronics)

Actually I had purchased the predecessor to this model approximately 24 years ago. They were repaired under warranty once at about 10 years, when I made the mistake of leaving them in my boat with a black tarp cover, in the New Orleans summer sun for 3 months. Everything in the boat was baked, and the binnoculars developed a fog inside.
Then in 2005 Katrina flooded my St. Bernard home with 12' of water for 3 weeks. The Bushnells had seeped storm surge seawater and dissolved gypsum sheetrock inside. This time Bushnell simply replaced the old warriors with a new modern set.
I think I have put these optics through 2 rather unreasonable trials and Bushnell has stood by them, no questions asked! I am very impressed with a company waranty like that and intend to show my loyalty to Bushnell in return. Good stuff from good people.
