VP Series Compact Waterproof and Fog proof High Definition Binoculars Overview The VP-025 is a VP Series 10x25mm Compact Waterproof High Definition Binocular. Generally speaking, the better the aberrations are controlled the cleaner and brighter the image will appear.Not sure why more folks have not keyed in on these up to now, but there have been good reviews in Outside Magazine last couple years, thats how I found out about them. As well as the good quality glass, Carson have added phase correction coatings onto the prism glass - when light waves are reflected at the opposite faces of a roof prism, "phase shift" occurs which means that you get a small amount of deterioration in sharpness. Also, the eye relief caps are either all the way in, or all the way out, with no option for intermediate steps.

Their maximum eye-relief of 16mm is also very good and even though they just miss out on making it on my list of long eye-relief binoculars, 16mm should be more than enough for most people who wear glasses. The next strap that comes with the Carson 3D series binoculars well padded, but possibly not quite as wide as I would have preferred. The twist-up (helicoid) mechanism on these Carson 3D series binoculars is pretty smooth, but lacks any fixed intermediate stops which is a slight shame as this means that eyeglass wearers have less flexibility when it comes to adjusting the eye-relief to suit their exact needs.Most models have plenty of eye relief with twist down eyecups making them ideal for eyeglass wearers.
