American Hunter-Gatherers I wanted to write a review about
my lil’ pair of Tasco 10x25 mm Essential Binoculars Camo. Though yes small and
inexpensive I bought these bino’s about 10 years ago for a deployment actually.
The unit only issued bino’s to the big dawgs and to be honest the big bino’s issued
weren’t that great compared to other optics we all used mostly scopes and
higher tech specialty viewers. I carried my lil’ Tasco bino’s in my cargo
pocket or stuffed near my chest with its lanyard. I could easily pull em’ out
to check out the surrounding area in most all conditions. Now high speed pro’s
might laugh and I don’t give a rat’s ass, spotters and team members were asking
to use my lil’ binos all the time remember our soldiers aint rich. And Freedom isn't FREE! I now still use them to checkout the Vegas
strip from my balcony ( recently watching New Years fire works and New Years day
sunrise ). I take them when I hike and want to observe wildlife or game on a
trek. I use them to star gaze and such and I can afford some badass gear today
lol. They come in both Black or Brown Camo here is some Product Info:
Tasco 10x25 Binoculars from Essential Series are
ultra-light binoculars from Tasco. These Tasco 10X 25
mm Binoculars 168RB D and 168BCR-D offer outstanding compact performance
with rugged, rubber armor for hiking, backpacking or bicycle touring. Tasco Binoculars are inexpensive and great
for giving to children, throwing in the glove box of a car or taking with you
when you don't want to worry about your investment. It's the little mysteries
in life that we find most enriching, and often it's the details that tell the
story. The bottom line is, you don't have to be searching for an ivory-billed
woodpecker to justify owning a pair of compact, high-performing binoculars.
The Essentials line of binoculars from Tasco are
tough, weather resistant and, most importantly, affordable. So whether you're
big-game hunting or stopping off to see the world's largest prairie dog colony,
there's an Essentials binocular just
right for the occasion. They have lasted me over ten years in the field, both in
combat deployments and walking and hiking with my family. Sometime lil’ is pretty
damn good!

168BCRD: Tasco Essential 10 x 25mm Binocular Brown Camo Roof Prism Compact, plastic clampack
Specifications for Tasco Essential 10 x 25 Binoculars:
Prism Type: Roof ( roof prism binoculars have a straight profile, with the eyepiece situated directly behind the front lens. This allows them to be held with arms tucked close to the body for maximum steadiness. The narrow profile of a roof prism also places focusing wheels conveniently under the fingers, which enhances focusing speed and comfort, especially for people with smaller hands. But this fist has knocked out a tooth or two.)
Magnification: 10x
Objective Lens Diameter: 25mm
Angle of View: 5.5 (The angle between the left- and right-hand edges of the field of view at 1000 yards measured from the binocular’s point of view.)
Field-of-View (@ 1000 Yds): 288' (96m at 1000 m)
Exit Pupil Diameter: 2.5mm ( The point at which all the light rays passing through the binoculars exit through the eyepiece. To calculate the exit pupil, divide the diameter of the objective lens by the magnification. For example with this 10x25 binocular, the exit pupil is 25 over 10, which equals 2.5mm. A large exit pupil is important for low-light viewing.)
Relative Brightness: 6.2 ( A number indicating the size of the light shaft that reaches the eyes. Brightness factors up to 10 are okay for daylight use; figures from 10-16 are adequate for dusk or cloudy days, 25-50 for nighttime use.) I have had no problem in using these bino’s in any time of use personally.
Twilight Factor: 15.8 (measure of the resolving power in dim light) 10x25= 250 sq root= 15.81
Focus Type: Center
Weatherproofing: None (comes with carrying pouch that can fit in a jacket or sporting pocket the bino’s are like glasses I keep them from getting to wet. Great in the desert and mountains)
Tripod Socket: No
