Bushnell Powerview 12×25 Compact Folding Roof Prism Binocular (Black) – Dirt cheap but powerful!

When I first checked the price for this pair of binoculars I couldn’t really believe it was a Bushnell, renown for its toughness and durability. The Powerview 12×25 Compact Folding Roof Prism Binoculars probably deserves the attention of those leisure bird watchers, sports and concert goers that doesn’t need a high end binocular.

With 12x magnification, the Powerview is certainly able to compete with other expensive models in terms of power. The lens are also multi coated, providing you with great light transmission and an image that is bright.

Users will also find that the Insta-Focus system makes adjusting so much easier, so you can quickly get a sharp view of what’s happening on stage or a on a tree branch. Not to mention its compact size, which you can practically keep anywhere! Your pocket, the glove compartment, the drawer in your office or just carry it around your neck, it only weighs 11.3 ounces anyway!

Besides that the 25-foot close focusing distance lets you view insects with its details. The rubber protection around the Powerview also prevents it from slipping from your fingers, as well as lightens the impact of knocks.

Bushnell Powerview 12×25 – Worth its Price

Well for the price you are paying, the Powerview is a great pair of binoculars, unless you can’t live without waterproof and fogproof features. The field of view isn’t really wide, 240 foot at 1000yards. And another annoying thing is that the 9mm eye relief. This means you might need to press your glasses on the lens, in fact those with thicker glasses might have a bit of a problem.

You get what you pay for. I personally think that the Bushnell Powerview 12×25 is excellent for beginners and non die hard fans of bird watching.
