At first glance, you can tell that Carson's Z-80 SuperZoom is not your average pocket binoculars. With its multi-coated lenses and sleek styling, this unit stands out.

It also provides amazing magnification--though this comes at a cost. The unit allows you to view at 20X magnification and then zoom to 80X without losing your subject. The BAK-4 Porro prism gives good depth of field, but with large magnification, the field of vision is a relatively narrow 42.2 feet at 1000 yards. Along with the tripod adapter, a pouch case, a lens cloth, and a neck strap are included..

The Carson Z-80 is best used in bright light conditions; otherwise, the image will be fairly dim. At maximum magnification you will also need a tripod to keep the image from shaking. A tripod adapter is included. This unit is probably best suited to stationary use at home or perhaps for hunters in stationary stands who can rig up a tripod.
