Sports reviews of Bushnell H2O 10x42 Waterproof/Fogproof Binocular w/Roof Prism
Customer Review: Compact and perfect for outdoors and any but the most demanding birding
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I can understand some field biologist saying they need Swarovski binoculars and none of those should even be reading this review. For all else, I can easily recommend this product. I had used porro prism binocs earlier but these roof prism ones are so much more convenient and lighter to carry during hours of treks. And I personally tested the waterproofing claims of this product when I dropped them into shallow waters during a kayaking trip - I wiped all the water off and it was good to go in moments.
There are a couple of issues though - these lenses fogged easily enough during early morning cold temperatures. Dont know if there are any better fog-free options there but that feature isnt its best strength. Also, the neck cord Bushnell packs it with looks really cheap - I would bet my binocs will definitely outlast it. And thats a concern when all that is holding the binocs from falling down is this band.
Overall, a very good deal - I bought the 10x42 H2O when they came down to about $48 in Sep 08. So, it was a brilliant deal I got. But I'd buy it again if something happened to my current one and I had to pay $85 for new ones.

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.
Roof Prism System: In roof prism binoculars the prisms overlap closely, allowing the objective lenses to line up directly with the eyepiece. The result is a slim, stream-lined shape in which the lenses and prisms are in a straight line.
