Vortex Optics Diamondback 10x42 Roof Prism Binocular

I am not a twitcher, a hiker, a hunter or an astronomer so I did not buy these bins for any special reason other than a fascination for seeing things close up. I have taken them for walks on the beach, I have used them for plane-spotting and as soon as we get a good view of the moon I will certainly take a gander there too. I read and watched the reviews of scores of binoculars because £167 is not a sum I would normally pay for something that is just a treat for myself. Just about everything pointed me in the direction of these bins and when they arrived I was not disappointed. They are well protected, they are comfortable to use, they are quick to adjust and they give a good sharp focused image. If you want a good, general-use pair of bins (with a lifetime warranty btw) then I can highly recommend these.

Fantastic binoculars. They are so clear and sharp. I bought them before I went home where I just spent 4 weeks in a game reserve. The clairyt of the sightings was incredible. They are robust which is so important out in the bush yet really good quality. Like others I was skeptical given the price was cheap but honestly these are brilliant.

Nice piece of kit. I had the chance to compare with a friend who had bigger and heavier binoculars that had the same magnification but a smaller field of view and less sharpness. I used them on safari in South Africa. Worth the money.

Perfect crisp vision, I absolutely love them. Lovely design and reassuringly weighty - not heavy :)

Nice bins , optics very clear and crisp , strap comfy . Case ok too but case strap is a bit thin and not as good as bino's strap, a bit pricey as I reserched the makers and are American but was disappointed to see made in China stamped on product !!

Well made solid binoculars superbly clear. Excellent.

Great piece of kit, ideal when you live by the sea! Mike Patton

Great, very clear glass.

These are as good as they say

Il Diamondback 10 x 42 della Vortex è un ottimo binocolo, ben costruito, robusto, ma leggero da trasportare. Con il gas interno anti appannamento. I 10 ingrandimenti sono la miglior soluzione per il birdwatching. La qualità ottica, rapportata al costo del binocolo, è eccezionale. La confezione è completa di cinghia morbida per il collo e borsa semi rigida per il trasporto. Uno strumento sicuro e affidabile ad un ottimo prezzo.

Mom loved it

Es ist zwar das „ alte“ Modell, aber zu dem Preis unschlagbar. Wir sind rundherum zufrieden.

Vortex Optics D241 Jumelles - very easy to use, very bright, feel lighter than expected, which is good when you are treking
