Review of the Bushnell PowerView Wide Angle Porro Prism 20/50 Binoculars
The Bushnell Powerview Wide Angle Porro Prism 20/50 looks impressive and powerful. It is easy to hold with a rubber casing and reviewers have found it to be light despite being sturdy and well constructed. The lens are also easily adjustable for viewers who wear glasses.
A certain amount of shaking might be experienced by the user when viewing images at a closer distance, and this is due to the high magnification design. It is better designed for longer distance viewing.
It is strong and clear with easy control view adjustment, and comes with a lens cleaning cloth, 4 lens caps, a soft case and a strap. The craftsmanship is solid and well-made for the price.
