    Comments about Barska 15x60 Cosmos Waterproof Binoculars:

    Because of the poor lens caps, and the fact that they were made in China (which I didn't realize when I purchased them), I will likely return them.

      Comments about Barska 15x60 Cosmos Waterproof Binoculars:

      These 4lb binoculars have individual focusing for each EP. While holding these binocs with both hands was ok for brief periods (not too shaky) trying to hold it with one hand while trying to focus in was too much. Don't even bother trying it at night unless there is a tripod available.

      The weight of the binocs weren't too bad on the arms as much as the irritation on the bridge of the nose and eye area. Having that part of your face being subjected to that weight, along with the rubbing on the EP from focus rotation was a bit too much. It helped a little to fold down the eyeguards, but it still got irritating when viewing up into the sky, a good chunk of that weight bearing down on your face..

      As for the views themselves...well these were the most powerful binocs I had ever tried, and putting them side by side with 8x40s and 10x50s certainly showed the difference. But handling these weren't worth the extra boost for my needs. They do show the night sky very well, and if I didn't already own an 8" Dob I'd have probably kept them and got a tripod. I could make out DSOs very easily and the star field was VERY bright indeed. I liked what I saw.

      But since I don't have to have the big glass to view up close they aren't worth the effort for me. I was hoping they would be a little easier to deal with, but I knew I was taking a shot. As for something to grab and go with on cloudy nights they were a tad too overwhelming. But I did like them. They felt good, quality was there, I might buy another pair down the line when I'm ready to invest in a tripod.

      I must also say that my pair never seemed to want to get to a point where I felt they were in perfect focus (both EPs sharp together). I could get close, but it always seemed a tad off. Sometimes I felt I had finally got there...but then noticed the need to refocus again.. Maybe it was just my pair, maybe not. A tripod is recommended for better focusing with these binoculars either way.
