A decent bit of kit.
I purchased these as my binoculars are too heavy to cart about on everyday dog walking. This monocular is handy to carry around without really noticing. The pouch is a handy addition though I generally carry mine around my neck with the included strap. I do tuck it inside my coat or beneath my jumper/hoody. As a monocular it is relatively easy to use once you get used to it. My only gripes are that it is little use unless you extend the eyepiece to the full 3 clicks and can be a little unsteady to hold. Also it is near impossible to focus one handed. The whole unit does take a bit of getting used to and at first I was tempted to return it. However after a little time and repeated use it am glad I finally purchased one and this model does suit me quite well. I do wish I had shopped in store and had the option of trying several different makes.
I do recommend this product for its ease of use, solid build quality and ergonomically comfortable to hold. It does focus well on distant objects and makes identifying the blurred blobs into identifiable things....
All in all a decent bit of kit.Read full review

Disappointed Really
Bought this fairly expensive item, but quite disappointed as found the ajustment whilst viewing is not managable single handed, also as a trial I purchased a cheap version on Ebay £6.99 , which in my opinion is just as good with more or less the same focal distances and easy operating , so I have two, one for the wife, and the better one? for me, I'll leave you to decide who gets "what"Read full review

Bar & stroud mini
Amazingly powerful handheld monocular, having owned many pairs off binoculars over forty years I decided to try something small and compact that I could easily slip into a pocket. This beautifuly made piece of equipment is just perfect for everyday use, it's range and clarity leaves far more expensive competitors in second place. Powerful 10x magnification and so user friendly you can operate this with one hand. I can see this item being used on holidays as well as general day walks. Buy one...and I give you my promise that you will be delighted with your purchase. Read full review

Very good monocular for the price.
Very sharp, good magnification and build seems sturdy. Definitely very good value for money. On the downside, the focus ring could have been a bit bigger and the carrying case could have been better.

Barr & Stroud Sprite Mini 10x25 Waterproof Bak-4 Monocular
This was a replacement for one stolen from my van which I had for quite a while. Works quite well in low light, and image is pin sharp. Have used more expensive optics that were not as good. It's light, grippy, comes with a belt case. You won't even notice you are carrying it, just buy one, you will not regret it !!Read full review

Highly recommended
This monocular is really high quality and my family now has three of them in total. I have used one for nearly 2 years on my sailing trips and they are excellent! Highly recommended.

Good quality for money
Bought these for my husband to leave in his fishing bag instead of using heavier binoculars. Very pleased with them, good quality lenses for his purpose and lightweight. Would recommend them

I bought this monocular on impulse, I wasn't specifically looking for one but thought it would be a handy tool when out and about. The 10yr warranty was a big draw and the quality is very nice, fits the hand well etc. The clarity of the unit is special. Almost feels digital or 8k like clarity. very impressed thanksRead full review
