It's pretty, it's small and it's functional. You might want to spend a little time adjusting Beat Focus and you have to adjust it every time you use it. However, once you get used to it, it takes about 3 seconds, so it's really not a big deal to me. I love going to musicals and plays but can't afford the 'best seats' so this pretty little thing helps me enjoy the shows a lot more! Even if I'm far away from the stage. Keep in mind it's only 3x but considering the price I think it's great value!

I love my binoculars and how great they look in my home

Not the best for distance but they help if you want to see a little more detail. Used for the ballet. Well done. has weight. Comes in a small black bag. Fit easily in my handbag. Plan to use for theatre, horse racing, symphony.

The opera glasses fit perfectly in a small evening bag. Small, elegant and yet you are very close to the action. Even from a side box you can watch what's happening on the stage very well. The color is as shown in the pictures.

We use these at the Los Angeles Opera and they are the perfect size and were beautiful. I like the handle that makes them a little more discreet.

It's small, fits in your pocket and folds up easily. Ideal for baseball/football. BUT if used, you will get noticed. But be conspicuous

bought these opera glasses as a Christmas present for my aunt who loves going to the theatre. She was really happy when she opened this gift and I'm sure she will be thrilled to use it when she goes to the theater for the first time this year.

First of all, thanks to the supplier for including these twin glasses in the: Aomekie Astronomical Telescope. during the offer. Theater binoculars, nice in black and good goods, it can be used anywhere. You can purchase them separately from: Aomekie Astronomical Telescope. The 2 products together are offered at Christmas. We will be able to comment on the performance. We believe we will not be disappointed with this command.

This is part of an unopened Christmas present.

was initially drawn to these glasses for their vintage look whilst at the same time being in pristine condition - this really is the essence of the premium viewing you want to portray in opera! I think these events are a chance to perform in front of an audience the same way you do on stage, so it's fun to pretend you're watching a show the way you would in the Victorian era, and those glasses add fit perfectly into this performative culture. The shiny red finish paired with the gold plating looks so classy and high-quality. These are metal but not too heavy to hold throughout viewing, but their weight certainly adds to the realism. They also have a decent magnification. Sitting in the front row of the upper balcony on the right of the stage I was able to get a pretty clear picture of the performers, although I will say the scope was a bit narrow. Magnification is also quite blurry around the edges; I think this is to improve focus or create a vignette effect, but it makes it difficult to see the entire image. However, I don't get as dizzy looking through them as I do with some other glasses and I'm grateful for the lower magnification. Unfortunately, these are said to fold nicely for portability, but their fold isn't the best. Since it's metal, where it's supposed to fold, the hinges squeak a lot and rub against the metal. I'm afraid that if I fold them too much they will rub and the exterior paint will rub off. While it hasn't happened yet, I think these need to have better oiled hinges to be top-of-the-line binoculars. They're durable when traveling because they're a little heavier, but the fact that they don't come with lens protection makes it difficult to just slip them into a purse and call them good - you need some extra protection around these have or invest in a case. Overall, this is a fun costume to wear to events like the opera and it certainly made my experience that much more enjoyable, but the actual practicality of magnifying these glasses isn't the best on the market. If you want clear visibility then look elsewhere, but if you want viewers to see you in person these are perfect!
