Bushnell H2O 10x42 mm Waterproof Binoculars
Spend enough time on the water, and your equipment will spend some time in it. That's why Bushnell had the foresight to build the H20 series of binoculars, which are O-ring-sealed and nitrogen-purged to complete lock out moisture should you spill water on the housing, take your binoculars overboard, or simply run into foul weather along the way. The H20 binoculars feature rubber armoring with textured pads to give you a sturdy grip in slippery situations. More significantly, the binoculars' multicoated optics and premium-quality BaK-4 prisms maximize light transmission and image clarity, so you can enjoy a clear view of the Orcas in the distance or the fast-approaching coastline. You'll quickly see how a little planning on Bushnell's part goes a long way in magnifying your adventures on or around the water. Other features include twist-up eyecups, a large center focus knob for easy, precise adjustments, and a long eye relief.

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.

Sports reviews of Bushnell H2O 10x42 Waterproof/Fogproof Binocular w/Roof Prism

Customer Review: Everything I needed in a pair of binoculars!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I'm an avid hiker and outdoor enthusiast, and after reading many reviews of various water-resistant and water-proof bino's, it was obvious that the H2O's were a good choice.

I've used these many times over the past two months and have consistantly been impressed. They've never fogged up, and although I haven't had them submersed yet (not really sure if I'm looking forward to that!), I have used them in rain while out hiking, and I trust they're completely waterproof!

These are kind of heavy for backpacking uses, but for a 10x42 pair of bino's that are waterproof, you really can't go wrong with these. Maybe they could've included a nicer, or slightly larger case with them. It's sort of hard to jam them into the back and take them out without the lens caps coming off each time.

Customer Review: Can't beat the quality for the price!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

If you're looking for an inexpensive pair of binoculars with good optics and rugged and totally waterproof/fogproof, these are right up your alley. You won't get the same quality image as you would if you were spending a couple hundred more, obviously, but if that's not a major concern and you don't need extreme, expensive binoculars, then these definitely fit the bill. I bought them for a mountaineering trip. Very happy with my purchase!

Customer Review: Very Nice,
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

We use these for bird and wild life watching from the house mainly. They are very easy to handle, focus and scan. Field of view, magnification, and low light vision are all exellent. These are far and away the best glasses I have used. I don't think you can go wrong with these, either performance or value wise. As usual our Amazon Prime account provides great service and value.

Customer Review: Just what I expected
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I purchased this product for sports events and it does a great job. I have a wide field of view and I can adjust it to a closeup view without without losing the steadiness of my view. I used it during the 2009 Steelers Bronco game in Denver and I did not have a problem condensation.

Customer Review: My wife can see!!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Very nice binoculars at a great price. My wife has always had difficulty with seeing birds on our nature walks. These binoculars deliver a crystal clear view and are easy to adjust. Very quality construction. They feel like they will last for years.
