After almost two months of use, I consider these binoculars to be one of the best I've ever had. They're compact, have a large magnification, and provide a sharp image. Plus points for the practical case, although it could have a better closing method, as I'm worried the elastic band might stretch over time. Perfect for walks and holidays.

Bushnell R5 Binoculars 8x42 - Ranger Green
Binoculars with 8x magnification and a 42 mm objective lens. It is equipped with HDOS optical system, which provides increased light transmission, adequate contrast and very good resolution. A proposition for those looking for a device that allows observation in various lighting conditions, which will prove useful both during outdoor expeditions and in military applications.
HDOS optics, BaK-4 glass, dielectric coatings, Phase-3, EXO Barrier and FMC
The HDOS (HD Optical System)optical system provides high light transmission, as well as adequate contrast and very good resolution. The prisms are made of shatterproof BaK-4 glass , which guarantees brightness and image clarity at a level unattainable for binoculars using cheaper Bk-7 optical glass.
There are three types of coatings on the prisms of the binoculars:
- dielectric coatings are responsible for proper light transmission, increasing surface reflectance
- Phase-3 coatings eliminate phase shift losses of reflected light waves, improving color fidelity, resolution and contrast
- EXO Barrier coating prevents the deposition of water, oil and other contaminants on their surface
In addition, all air-glass borders are coated with multiple FMC (Fully MultiCoated) anti-reflective coatings to minimize unwanted reflections and losses of light passing through the optics.
Focus and diopter adjustment knobs, adjustable eyecups
The model is equipped with knobs for adjusting focus and diopter correction. Adjustable eyecups allow you to adjust the distance of the lenses to the structure of your eye sockets, and allow you to use the binoculars without removing your corrective or sunglasses.
Damage-resistant design that meets IPX7 waterproof rating
Damage-resistant plastic, from which the housing was made in combination with textured inserts guarantees a secure and stable grip, even in adverse weather conditions. The binocular tubes have been filled with dry nitrogen gas and sealed with O-rings, which prevents internal fogging of the lenses.
The model meets the high IPX7 waterproof rating, which provides protection against immersion in water up to 1 meter deep for up to 30 minutes. A socket located on the housing allows the attachment of a tripod. Thanks to Roof (roof) prisms, the binoculars do not take up much space and are easy to transport.

Spacious and durable binoculars. Usage is very comfortable, and the optics offer high quality. Numerous included accessories make safe carrying and storage easier.

In my opinion, this is a very practical piece of equipment for trips. It's comfortable to hold and the image is clear. I’m taking off one star because Bushnell’s 30-year warranty applies only in the USA and Canada, and here it’s only two years.

The casing is made of durable material with textured inserts, providing a strong and secure grip. It works very well. I recommend it!
