The Bushnell Power View 2 16x32 binocular is a compact, lightweight optic built on an all-metal chassis—a feature that historically hasn't been available at this price point. That steel foundation means real durability: it won't crack when winter temperatures plummet or warp when summer heat spikes, and it distributes weight evenly across both barrels for balanced, comfortable handheld use. If you're scouting game, glassing distant terrain, or scanning from a fixed position, this 16-power magnification gives you the reach to resolve detail at range without the bulk of a full-size hunting binocular.
Optics-wise, the Power View 2 pairs multi-coated glass with a 32mm objective lens to gather sufficient light for a crisp, bright image in good daylight conditions. The 16x magnification brings distant subjects into sharp focus, though remember that higher powers narrow your field of view—useful for pinpointing specifics, less so for sweeping open country quickly. The rubber-armored body is textured for a secure grip, even if you're balancing the binocular in one hand while hiking or glassing from awkward angles. At 310 grams, it won't wear you down over hours of use.
The 5.49-meter close focus keeps nearby subjects in acceptable clarity, and the fold-down eyecups accommodate both bare eyes and eyeglass wearers. These are roof-prism optics built with BaK-7 glass—solid, time-tested prism material—though they are not waterproof or fogproof, so protect them from heavy rain and extreme temperature swings that could cause internal fogging. Lead-free glass means no environmental compromise in manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use the Bushnell Power View 2 16x32 for hunting?
Yes. The 16x magnification excels at glassing distant terrain and resolving small details at range—typical tasks for scouting game or confirming distant targets. However, the narrow field of view at this power means it's better suited to systematic scanning of specific areas than quick-glassing of open country. Pair it with a wider binocular if you need both speed and power.
Is this binocular waterproof or fogproof?
No. The Power View 2 is water-resistant but not waterproof or fogproof. Avoid immersion and protect it from heavy rain and extreme temperature swings that could allow internal moisture to fog the prisms.
Will this work with an eyeglass prescription?
The fold-down eyecups accommodate eyeglass wearers by allowing you to hold the binocular farther from your eyes, but the 0.472-inch eye relief is relatively short. If you have a strong prescription, try them on or confirm compatibility before purchase.
