Excellent light weight travel binoculars
By S. Janes
I purchased these binoculars for an Alaskan cruise last month. After studying many brands and specifications I chose the Magellan 8X25 for the sizee and weight for walking trips and I was not disappointed. Besides those attributes, the Magellans performed extremely well both in clarity and ease of use as well as use with or without glasses. The only downside is the carry case which is cumbersome but adequate. I highly recommend.

nice travel binocular but far from perfect
By Santoku, Mr.
The Olympus Magellan 8×25 is very compact, but it doesn’t fold up quite as tiny as double-hinged compact binoculars. If you don’t mind the small size, overall the ergonomics and feel are quite good – better to me than the similar Pentax 8×25 DCF MC II. The big center focus wheel is nice but mine has little resistance. Wedging a small thin elastic behind it ‘solved’ this. There is just barely enough focus travel for me to reach focus on infinity without glasses, though I am very nearsighted. The click-stop detents of the twist-in/out eyecups have become mushy over time and no longer hold their position firmly. To focus farther out, you turn the focus wheel counter-clockwise; it’s more intuitive to have it the opposite way. Excellent close-focus of about 7′. This binocular has just enough eye relief for me to see the entire field of view when I’m wearing my glasses. Though the field of view is 5.5º which is very narrow for an 8x binocular. For watching fast-moving action like sporting events or birds, you’ll probably want something with at least around 8º FOV . Resolution (‘sharpness’) and freedom from chromatic aberration (false color) in the one I got is about average for an 8x binocular. It’s water resistant to a shallow depth (like for quickly rinsing off dirt or sand), but don’t expect truly water proof – few binoculars are. Comes with caps for the eyepiece end but not the objectives. But it does come with a neoprene case. If you can get the Magellan 8×25 for less than $100, it’s a good buy for a travel binocular, mine is a constant travel companion.

Olympus Magellan 8X25 WP I binoculars
By Diane Weiss
I bought these binoculars to take on our Alaska cruise and land tour and they worked great. Easy to use and the view was perfect. I carried them around my neck all day long during excursions and hikes. They are very light weight and easy to carry. I would highly recommend these!
