As Slickdeals unofficial optics nerd I guess give these half-hearted endorsement. Bushnell drives me absolutely nuts because their branding is completely obtuse. They've have at least 4 "Legend" binoculars Legend Ultra, Legend M, Legend L, and Legend and they're all in completely different price points and its unclear what the difference is.

The lack of FOV specs *anywhere* for this model gives me pause, but my hunch is that if you're the type of person buying $50 binoculars these will probably work fine for you.

Bushnell website shows them as new so might not be any reviews yet.

I have a pair of Bushnell 8x32 or something that I bought about 5+ years ago. They're good enough for a slightly cheaper price than this.

Good enough to gaze at elk and other wild game from 300+ yards away. Only use them 3-4 times a year hunting or in wildlife parks and such.

Depends what your needs are; like how packable you need.

42 is usually a significant jump in size if space is a concern. The 32 I have is in my daily pack when I'm hunting but rarely needed in my area. But, because it's so small it doesn't hurt to have it in there with all my more necessary items.

Pretty sure similar deals on this size and brand come up every year for Christmas or 6 months at Cabela's if you're not in a rush.

These aren't exactly Swarovski binoculars, but if you only need some occasionally they should be fine. Like the previous poster mentioned, going up in size on the objective lens (the 42mm part) will significantly increase the weight of the binoculars. For instance, the Nikon Monarch 7 series, a well-respected upper-middle class binocular, goes from 16 oz. for the 8x30 version to 24 oz. for the 10x42 version.

This Bushnell 8x42 is 17 oz.

I'm not sure where you get that weight, when I look it up on the Bushnell site it says 615 grams, which is about 21.5 oz. But, regardless, the weight all depends on what components go into the binoculars. Plastic is lighter than glass, but not as good for image quality, generally speaking. Light and high quality glass is possible, but expensive. Besides all that though, I was just talking about a general rule for optics- all things being equal, each step up in objective size will increase the weight/size on an exponential curve.

It's in the picture in the posting. Scroll through them and you will see the weight listed.

These seem like good binoculars to have around for when you go to games or other events. These seem light enough that they won't be obnoxious hanging from your neck for a couple of hours. I keep a pair of binoculars in my cars for the times I see moose or elk out in the fields and if I needed a pair for the car, I'd pick these up.

From a manual I found online for this model (BB842W) the FOV is 315 /105 ft/m at 1000 yds/m respectively.

The Walmart website said 17 oz. The manual I found says 20 oz. Sorry for the confusion.
