Discount Binoculars

Discount? What Discount?

Whilst researching some new Birdwatching Binoculars from Bushnell, I noticed that a website said that it had "huge discounts on selected binoculars", but once I clicked through to the site, do you think I could find these selected binoculars? Not a chance.

Quick Experiment:
Do a quick search on Google for Discount Binoculars "Discount Binoculars", I have just done it and none of the first 10 results take you to a page that actually have binoculars on it with any kind of discount. How annoying is that!

That got me thinking, if I get annoyed getting tricked into looking at a website, I bet pretty much everyone else does as well. So what can I do about it?

Real Discounts on Real Binoculars
Well, I often come across real discounted binoculars from genuine binocular retailers when I am working on the site, so what I have done is to put together a page that lists all the Discount Binoculars for Sale that I come across as well as where you can actually go to get the discount. Real Discounts on Real Binoculars.

I hope that this page can help save you time, by finding the best deals on the best binoculars without taking you to a bunch on non existent sales and discounts. Obviously websites will add, remove and change their deals all the time and whilst I will do my best to keep the page up-to-date, it is impossible to check them all every day. I am hoping that you guys can help me here. If you spot a discount that is not on the page, or I have the information wrong, please just contact me and i will make the necessary changes. That way everyone cane benefit.

Anyway that is my rant over for the day, hope you enjoy the new page.

Long Eye Relief Binoculars for Bird Watching

Bird Watchers who have to wear eyeglasses, will know what a pain it can be to use binoculars, having to remove them every time you bring the binoculars up to your eyes is not only annoying, but can cost you those vital moments which make the difference between identifying the bird or not. This does not however have to be the case:

Long Eye Relief Binoculars

Binoculars eye relief is how far back from the eyepiece your eye can be and still see the whole field of view, wearing glasses means that your eyes will have to be further back and so you need a pair of binoculars with a Long Eye Relief (follow the link for a full overview of why eye relief is so important).

Luckily for those who enjoy birding and have to wear eyeglasses, there are some really fantastic binoculars that are specifically designed for bird watching and that come with really good eye relief.

Bushnell 8x42 NatureView Binoculars
These NatureView binoculars from Bushnell are specifically designed with the birder in mind and for those that have to wear glasses they have an excellent eye relief of 17mm, which should be more than enough for most people. Follow the link to read my full review of them, but the main highlights include excellent quality multi-coated optics, a tough non-slip rubber armor to absorb shock and they are fully waterproof and fog proof. Overall they are excellent value for money birding binoculars.

Minox 8x42 BV Binoculars
With 18mm of eye relief, these value for money birding binoculars from Minox are ideal for those eyeglass wearers (and those who don't) who are looking for the highest quality, but at a more affordable price in their bird watching binoculars. Like the Bushnell's above, they are fully fog proof and water proof and come with a tough exterior that not only protects them but provides a comfortable non slip grip. Where they also really excel is in their field of view, with an impressive 389 ft wide at 1000 yards, compared 330 of the Bushnell above and 342 of the Steiner's below.

Steiner 8x42 Merlin Binoculars
With 19mm of eye relief, these Steiner Merlin binoculars have the longest eye relief of the three birding binoculars featured here. What is more, they have soft, angled eye cups that keep distracting light out of your eyes on bright, sunny days that can fold back should you wish to reduce the length of the eye relief. One thing to point out is that unlike the other two which are fully waterproof, these are only water resistant, but this should be fine so long as you look after them when it begins to rain.
