Product Description
In a world that's complicated enough, the affordably priced PermaFocus binos are a relief for simple, fixed-focus, long-distance viewing. The wider field-of-view makes them ideal for spectator sports, distant wildlife observation or winter use with gloves. Thanks to quality fully-coated optics the action is bright and crisp and the ergonomic rubber housing means you won't drop them - even with gloves on. PRODUCT FEATURES: Fully coated optics for superior light transmission and brightness; Unique "Focus-Free" feature stays in focus at most viewing distances; Non-slip rubber armor absorbs shock while providing a firm grip.

 I love these! July 18, 2006

These binocs are very similar to the ones they replaced that cost 5x as much. The old ones got tossed because they were showing a double image after living in my backpack for 2 years or so. The Bushnells may or may not have the quality of optics that the more expensive units did but the "Permafocus" or infinite depth focus makes it so you just pick them up and look. If what you are looking at is further than about 75' away it will be clear. This is really great when multiple users are using them as you don't have to reconfigure them for each persons eyes. It is also good for scanning a wide area as you don't have to adjust focus for close or far. This also makes them great for watching sports where things move fast.
I decided to try these because we have some older 10x50 units that use the same "Permafocus" design under a different brand that got bought by Bushnell and they have been working great for over 10 years. I hope I will be able to say the same about these.
 Great! June 27, 2007

These are great for fast action sporting or even bird watching. I got them for my 4 year old son to use at the Georgia football games. He has a hard time with focus. These work great because all he has to do is look and it there. The size is nice and we have no problem adjusting from his size to mine. Ours came from an Amazon partner... Optic planet... I think. And they were great as well. Super fast shipping and great contact from start to finish.

I wanted Binoculars that anybody could pick up and see the object without a lot of adjustment. I can pick them up at a sporting event, concert or viewing wildlife and quickly see what I want to see without any fiddeling. I am not sure how the auto focus works ... you probably give up something in the image quality for this feature but unless you want to study something at a great distance they seem to be fine.
These are great! June 20, 2008
I bought these before a 2-week trip to Alaska this spring and they made the trip so much more enjoyable. They are compact and lightweight and they went everywhere with me. It was nice that my kids didn't have to adjust them when they wanted to look at something. Great value for the money.
Excellent Binoculars for Alaska July 14, 2008
I bought this pair of binoculars to take on an Alaskan cruise. My wife and I had another pair that have to be focused every time you use them. As it turned out, my wife and I each only wanted to use this pair of Perma Focus Binoculars. They were perfect for this trip. I look forward to using them for football games and other sporting events as well.
