Kenko Opera Glass Pliant 3x25 Slim Silver

Bought these as a back-up for going to a performance, but did not end up using them. However, testing it on other things compared to the binoculars i did use have yielded comparable results aside from the obvious difference in eye distance and that my chosen binoculars were longer distance. These work surprisingly well and are extremelt compact, unobstrive to keep in a pocket, work bag/backpack side pocket, or perhaps in a clasp purse or fanny pack. The flatness is the real bonus, but they are otherwise comparable to longer binoculars of similar pricepoint. Their focus distance is nothing amazing, but better than no magnification and will easily get you a good quick look at animals or distant signage. I would not exactly recommend these for opera if you're in distant seats, but in a pinch they would make a difference. By design there are drawbacks, so it can be uncomfortable to use because of the fixed eye distance. But it is very well-made for the type of design it has. Lightweight, easy to use, the wheel spins easily but is not loose and will not be moved accidentally by using the binoculars, and it feels like it could survive a reasonable everyday drop. The picture is perfectly clear and very easy to focus, and opening/closing doesn't require too much effort. If you want normal binoculars, get normal binoculars. If you want a quick cheap magnifying tool to keep on your person for the occasional need or interesting bird, this is great. Even though I didn't use it for the show, I'll keep it around.

These glasses are cheaply made and likely won't last long. They work fine but don't have much range or much variable focus ability. I guess you get what you pay for.

All plastic, over priced, Dollar Store quality. Returned it. Bought a Celestron monocular for same price. I also had a hard time seeing through it.... the eye-viewing openings seem to be made for a child's face and eye position rather than adult. Yeah, I was very disappointed in it.

Zoom (focus)wasn't what I expected. Size was great. Fits easily in handbag or pocket. .

As per some other buyers' reviews, yes, these weeny binoculars seem cheap for the money, are fragile-ish, and light-weight plastic of some sort (ie, not at all "hardy"). BUT . . . they were exactly what I wanted and needed. I have a set of huge, 3-ton binoculars that may help me see an owl on a high tree branch, but do absolutely nothing in the 5 or so feet between me and my somewhat small TV (by today's standards). Because the TV is smallish and my vision has gotten blurry-ish, I can't read small print on the tube and haven't figured out how to enlarge it. I've scoured sites for the right product and this alone fit the bill, aside from concerns of its quality. As far as hardiness, I wouldn't carry this in my purse or a pocket for fear it would break, but it behaves well sitting on the table next to my TV chair till I need it. When I do, it's a little awkward because to see the small print real clearly I also need to keep my glasses on - but together they clear up the small print very well.

Bought for invled. Too low quality to be useful.

My two great granddaughters Fell in love with these binoculars. Sturdy and enchanting for them both. Neither is over five years old so these are perfect for them.

Disappointing... cheap plastic

No está mal, pero los aumentos son escasos

視力が悪すぎて案内板の文字が読めないため、買ってみました。 わざわざ看板の下まで行く必要がなくなったので買って正解でした。 薄くて軽いので持ち運びしてるのを忘れるくらい。 観劇や皆既月食を見るのにも使えました。
