DFlamepower 10x42 HD Monocular with Full Optical Prism and Dual Focus Telescope, Waterproof, Portable Spotting Scopes for Birdwatching

I generally struggle with binoculars, I seem to have trouble looking through two eye pieces at once, so a monocular is a great idea for looking at things at a distance.I thought this was very decently made, it's a good, robust, rubberised design, the optics seem fine to me, particularly at the price point, and it is decently weighty without being too heavy. Focus is via a rotating eyepiece, with fine focus via a rotating knob on the top of the monocular.It arrives in a neat little bag, with a tether and lens cloth.I tried to take a photo through it using my mobile, zooming in on my guitar case, I've attached another photo, taken from exactly the same position with juts the mobile, which hopefully demonstrates the magnification abilities. Whist the magnified shot is a tad blury, that's more about my lack of focus and the phone camera struggling rather than due to the optic of the monocular.I'm impressed that something of decent quality can be made at this price point. This will be yet another addition to my campervan, for those weekends away. Good stuff.

Doesn't fit into a pocket easily which is what I was looking for. But still a good product

I am new-ish to bird watching, and borrowed one of these off a friend when I was struggling with my (incredibly old) binoculars. The clarity is great, the little case keeps it clean and dry. The controls are easy for focusing. It's a good mid-range with decent magnification for a beginner like me. I would like to eventually invest in a scope to have better distant-views.

I have not use monocular before but I thought I give this one a go due to its good spec and competitive price.I walk in the park and nearby woodlands a lot and want to carry something light and small so I can look at the birds and small animals more closely.Binocular is out of the question because I like to focus on one eye and this monocular is great to use and hold on one hand, while I can hold my lovely hot coffee on the other handThe range is more than enough for general use, the strongest point is the amazing clarity. I am able to see objects much more clearly in details. The main focus dial is easily operated with a single finger.Overall I am more than pleased with DFlamepower monocular in terms of its size and easy to use. If you want to have something in your pocket for occasional use. I would strong recommend you give it a try.

Good quality and fair price.

The monocular arrived promptly and well packaged. I really like it because it is very light and easy to carry for my travels without supposing much weight or taking much space in my luggage.It is perfect for watching birds and for walks in the countryside. The range of vision is pretty good as it comes with a 42 mm lens. I used it to watch birds in a lake near my house and was quite impressed with the quality of the images. It is very easy to hold and to focus the objects and images why you are holding it.It can be used under any weather as it is protected with a waterproof material.I personally prefer a monocular to binoculars as the vision is quite good and you only need one hand to use it while you can use the other one for other things. The monocular also comes with a strap to hold it.A carry bag and a cleaning cloth are also provided with this monocular. Very good value for money and happy to recommend this monocular for bird watching and wildlife walks.

I’d actually rate this at a three and a half but since that option isn’t available I’d put it nearer a four than a three.The general build is about what you’d expect at this price range by which I mean to say it’s plasticky, stinks of chemicals and the rubber trims aren’t fitted too well. There’s also gaps around parts of the fore lens retention ring where it doesn’t sit flush against the main housing of the scope.The optics are clear and reasonably bright. The focusing is ok, not too loose and not too stiff. Fine tuning is nice and it holds focus well.Along with the scope you also get a cleaning cloth and a cheap case with bad stitching.For fifteen quid you can’t really complain about the no frills aspect and I don’t regret the purchase. It’s a perfect little stocking filler for my lad who’s into bird watching but hates using binoculars. I’d also throw it in the car for trips and use it myself no problem.It’s ok but I wouldn’t pay anything above what I paid.

Item as described, well packed and arrived on time.
