Sports reviews of Kowa BD25-8GR Roof Prism Wateproof Binoculars (8X25)
Customer Review: Kowa BD25-GR binoculars
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
Bought these binoculars for the quality of the lens treatments, waterproof, compact size, etc. I have used them bird watching for a few weeks now. I like the excellent light transmission for my old eyes, I like the lightweight and compact size. The view is clear and crisp to the edge of the view. The focus wheel is smooth and efficient. Eight power is the maximum I'd like to use in small binoculars but it works fine in this binocular.
Two things I don't care for. One is the right eye adjustment is quite stiff and, being small'ish, hard to adjust finely. On the other hand it doesn't move out of alignment once you manage to get it set.
The other is becoming endemic in binoculars, the twist out eyecups. I find I don't care for them. This is my first pair with them and likely my last. It is a point of weakness in handling the binoculars in my opinion. You have to remember each time you get them out hurriedly to see that rara avis flitting by. They must be twisted out all the way for proper use. They look and feel mighty fragile. Time will tell but I think I'll look only at "fixed" eyepiece binoculars for my upcoming boat binoculars.
