    Although the binoculars may be used with glasses, the individual dioptre adjustments and eye cups make use without glasses better and more comfortable. It's easy to adjust the binoculars, correctly and repeatably, for users with different distances between their pupils and different dioptres. There are bright, easily visible, marks on the body to enable you to reproduce any setting from memory.

    There is no focus adjustment for this pair of binoculars; consequently, it is important to set the dioptres correctly for each eye for each user.

    It's hard to figure out that this device uses LR43 batteries because that information is not on the device or the skimpy manual. The batteries are used to illuminate the compass at night, and either the batteries that were shipped with the product were dead on arrival, or there is something wrong with the binoculars. Fortunately, I can do without the compass in low light.

    Yes, you may use this pair of glasses in very low light because the 50 mm lenses bring in an amazingly bright view.

    The binoculars may be soaked with no ill effect and the case is flimsy, synthetic fabric but adequate for storage. The rangefinder reticle and rotary slide rule work well together. The rotary slide is synthetic and does not have a smooth, silky feel of high-end, slide rules.

    For the price, the Barska 7x50 Waterproof Floating Binocular with Compass and Rangefinder Reticle is sturdy, floats, and it's a pleasure to look at very bright views, even in low light, through the large 50mm lenses.

    Not bad for the cost

    Difficult to get proper view without some distortion at the outer edge of the viewing area.
    Right eye rubber cup would not stay on.

          Comments about Barska 7x50mm Waterproof Floating Binocular with Compass and Rangefinder Reticle:

          Used strictly on the boat. 7x50 is excellent in moderately rough water. Compass bearing feature works very well, surprisingly accurate. Could do without the range finder-just adds clutter,but couldn't find anything as good for less. Well built, float and nitrogen filled.

                Got them for my husband to use on our boat. He's always complaining that the ones we now have are hard to use with the boat moving. I think he'll be much happier with these.
