Some people have complained about quality control issues with these binocs, but my pair is impressive in fit and finish. The focus is smooth, the twist-up eyecups work perfectly, and the waterproof exterior is flawless. I had no trouble setting and then locking the diopter on the right eyepiece. Apparently some people have broken the diopter by trying to rotate the ring while it was locked. Not a good idea! The ergonomics are agreeable, and a surprisingly comfortable neckstrap is included. This strap is padded and attaches easily with clips instead of forcing users to go through the usual tedium of threading the strap through eyelets and then laboriously adjusting buckles. Bushnell also includes a cloth bag, an ample zip-up carrying case, and a harness, which reduces neck strain and holds the binocs firmly to the user's torso.
In terms of the "stuff" that comes with the binoculars, the only weakness is the objective lens covers. Made of rubber, these are designed to it over the objectives with a tight rubber ring, so they can be opened without being removed. This is a nice idea, but the first day out in the field one of mine dropped off, never to be seen again. Bushnell sent me two new ones for free, indicative of good customer service. But I would advise purchasers to treat the caps as "fully removable," that is, one should remove them at the start of the outing, keep them in a safe place, and then put them back on to store the glasses in between uses.
How do these binoculars perform? The news here is good. The incorporation of ED glass ensures bright, vivid colors, and the central image is sharp and clear. As with nearly all binoculars, there is some slight falloff of sharpness at the edges because of field curvature. But for most people's uses this is not a problem, as we tend to use binoculars to view objects that are centered within our field of view.
I have compared these binoculars to my older Nikon porro prism SE 10x42's, and also to a pair of Zeiss Conquest glasses. The Legend reveals slightly brighter colors than the Nikons, which ten years ago were considered by many to be the finest performing binoculars available. But the Nikons display a flatter field, and hence better edge-to-edge sharpness. The Zeiss Conquests, at a cost of over $1000, are discernably brighter, sharper, and clearer than the Legend Ultras. But hey, they cost almost five times as much!
At the price I paid, the Legend Ultras were a virtual steal. At the regular low price set by Amazon, they remain a fine value. There may well be other 10x42 models that perform slightly better, but from my research it's apparent that all of these cost more, sometimes comsiderably more.
The Legend Ultras are good performers, and they represent good value.
Secondly - I am a docent at a seaside California state park and I use these often in all weather conditions. Had to have waterproof/fogproof. I just bought and received my 2nd pair of these, the first pair I have owned for about 7 years. I am not surprised they won the Binoculars of the Year award in 2012. They have made many improvements in the product design and have a nicer case and include the cool harness, and other extras. These binoculars are excellent and every one I lent the old pair to is impressed. I often get asked for info on what type they are. My first impression of these is that they are even better for viewing than the first pair, and with all of the upgrades, it makes sense. They are not too heavy, I didn't want to hike with a lot of extra weight.
I use them to view wildlife, on the beach or at sea, and I use them for bird watching as well. A respected mentor had told me long ago that the 10x42 size is very good for birdwatching, and I agree.
Due to sand getting into the eyecups from the blowing wind, etc. and me lending them to tourists who tend to be too rough with adjusting the eyecups (I will lend no more! ;-) I have sent my first pair into Bushnell for repair twice. They are very good, and usually a very quick turnaround time, with reasonable prices and excellent customer service by phone.
I highly recommend these binoculars, I will be loyal to Bushnell forever!

Please note the dimensions - they are very usable but much more compact than typical binoculars. This means they are light to hold and are small enough you will actually want to pack them with you.
Adjustable eye cups for use with glasses or not are a great feature. As are the tethered caps. The ability to keep the caps with the binos is, in itself, a game changer!
The adjustment for focus is fairly good. Maybe a touch finicky, but not near as much as some higher end binoculars. The adjustment is positive, not 'grainy' and feels of quality. Light transmission and clarity is incredible.
It comes in a no frills, non padded carry case. You might consider additional padding for rough use, but these feel quite solid and rugged on their own.
Les finitions sont propres et belles.
Le rendu est excellent pour un prix restant raisonnable.
Je les utilise principalement lors de mes ballades en montagne pour l'observation des bouquetins, chamois et autres marmottes.
Les accessoires inclus sont de très bonne qualité.
Le packaging comprend : une sacoche, une bandoulière, un chiffon de nettoyage, une notice d'utilisation ainsi que des caches œilletons.
Produit utilisé régulièrement depuis plus de deux ans.
La qualité du produit est à souligner.
Je recommande cet achat.
