The Bushnell A1 10x25 is a compact binocular with 25 mm objectives and BAK4 prisms. Its optics are fully multicoated, and the field of view is 315 ft at 1000 yd, or 104.6 m at 1000 m. It is nitrogen filled to be waterproof and resist internal fogging. The center-focus wheel is slip resistant, and twist-up eyecups adjust for eyeglass wearers.
Our take
The 10x25 A1 pairs 25 mm objectives with a 315 ft field of view at 1000 yd, a compact layout. The nitrogen filling is there to resist internal fogging, so quick swings in temperature should not cloud the optics.
From our buying guide
Steiner calls 7x the marine standard. Higher magnification narrows the field of view and makes the image more sensitive to hand shake.
Check before you buy:
- The water rating comes with its depth and time, since ratings vary widely between makers.
- The maker says what floats, the body or only a strap, since some make no flotation claim at all.
- A stabilised pair has a water rating you're happy with, since not every one carries a waterproof rating.
