Who Is This Binocular For?
The Bushnell Legend 10x42 is a good choice for someone who wants a rugged, all-weather binocular with a confident grip. It is well suited to hunting, game viewing, birdwatching and general outdoor viewing, including in wet or rough conditions.
The 10x magnification gives you useful detail at a distance, while the 42mm lenses provide a good balance of brightness, size and weight. The all-glass, fully multi-coated optics help with resolution, contrast and light transmission, and the chassis is lighter than the previous Legend.
One of the main advantages is the weather protection. The IPX7 waterproof construction and RainGuard HD lens coating work together so the binocular can handle the harshest conditions. The soft-touch rubber and textured grip also make it easier to hold, even with one hand.
The Legend is aimed at everyday outdoor use with strong weather protection rather than top-end optical performance. Someone who wants a step up in optics for serious birding or long viewing sessions may prefer to look at the wider Bushnell binocular range we stock.
