 SO easy to use!!! July 12, 2010
Noah Vale (Long Island, NY)
The only complaint I could think of to levy against this gem is that somehow I imagined this would be a little smaller, and that's really my fault. That being said, this is the easiest focusing piece of optics you can get. Pick one up, folks.
 Not just for birdwatching October 26, 2009

I've used this monocular increasingly over the last few years as my birdwatching events have increased, but it was invaluable on a recent driving vacation through several northeastern states. Functioning as the navigator, I was generally able to spot street and highway exchange signs and then actually read them much sooner than otherwise and then to advise the driver.
Almost perfect... September 21, 2009

A meter readers dream, I LOVE this scope. I use it to read meters from a distance several hundred times a day, 5 days a week. It fits nicely in my shirt pocket, the focus is ETREAMLY FAST! The fact that the scope rests in the palm of your hands steadies the finger shake picked up from barrel scopes. The offset in the optics allows you to invert the scope to give you an extra inch of height when looking over fences, as well as the fact the scope is operated entirely from one hand, which is priceless when standing on your tippy toes to see over something, or are hanging from a wall you've gotta look over. There is only one draw back I have with this thing. It's only available in 8x, if it were a 10x32 it would be absolutely perfect. Although the optics can be easily changed out from most cheap 10x25 binos, but if you do the swap, the objective must be moved forward about 5mm for proper focus.

Carson Bandit 8x25 Quick-Focus Monocular I think anyone looking for a monocular will be happy with this product. It fits well in my hand including the focus. The focus takes a little practice because it is so sensative. It's really handy to carry and the image is clear. I'm glad I purchased it.
Unbelievably easy to use April 9, 2009

I found the item to be light and very easy to use. I am legally blind and need to check airline schedules, etc. It works very well and I often do not have 2 hands. I really liked the one hand focus.
