Binoculars Any Good ?

[tali1]

Are these binoculars any good and great value or just average and hyped up ?

I have a pair identical to those that I got for a fiver in Morrisons.
They do what they're supposed to but they are no better than medicre quality wise.
If you want bins for twitching or something other than occasional use you'd be better off spending more on a name such as Nikon, Pentax or Canon

yeh just for casual use
thx - best to go to morrisons!

I don't know if they'll still have them tali, they just had a big bin full on a special offer some time ago.
Best of luck.
