Customer Review: theatre glasses
I bought these for the theatre and they work well for me. They might also be good for sporting events. The small size is a plus. Two things about them are bad: The strap is not long enough to go around your neck which is the natural resting place for binoculars. (This can be corrected by buying a new strap.) Also, the glasses are center focus with no provision for individual focus. This means that if you are near sighted with different prescriptions for each eye the glasses can never be properly focused.

Canon 10×25A Compact Binoculars with Case & Neck Strap Canon’s 10×25 A series binoculars are ultracompact and light, for easy holding and storage. They have a high magnification and multicoated optics, including aspherical lens field-flattener for excellent edge-to-edge sharpness and contrast. Focusing controls are centrally located for easy use with either hand.
Customer Review: Great for carrying around while hiking, etc.
I use these mainly while I’m hiking, they’re fairly light, they fold up nicely, the focus is smooth and quick, and they’re made by Canon. For you techheads, the technical specs on Amazon.com don’t say, but the exit pupil is 2.5mm. They have a cord/strap attached to them, and it is NOT removable, just an FYI. And another note, these aren’t waterproof. They also come boxed from the factory with a soft/padded carrying case which attaches nicely to a belt.
