Can you bring them up to your eyes without releasing anything? Will they hold large binoculars?

Tommy, yes you can view with binos clipped in. I have medium sized (10x42) binos, and the harness easily holds them secured into the body. I don't know what size of large your talking about, but even the 12x50's I've seen I still believe it would hold them just fine. It is a very comfortable harness for me. I hope this helps you.

You can bring them up to your eyes very easily. That's what they were designed for. I use them with medium size binoculars (10x50s). The straps distribute the weight of those off of my neck to my back and shoulders which allows me to have them on all day. If you have very large binoculars they are going to be sitting right on your sternum all the time. It would be harder to take the binoculars off and put them down with this harness than a simple neck strap.

Yes just make the right strap adjustments so they hang just right! I think they are a good buy I use leupold 10x42 on it

Yes, the straps slide up, no need to upclip. I use them on larger 10x40s no problem.

Yes, it's elastic. "Large" is a relative term. I have 10x50 Swarovski's and it's comfortable. I use these for hunting so I have them on for hours at a time and I can barely tell they're on compared to slinging the binoculars over your shoulders.

Yes, the binoculars are perfect position for use and rest. My binoculars are not large, but I believe they would work for any size.

I think they should work just fine. There needs to be some kind of loop on the binoculars where straps will be attached.

Yes, but they aren't hinged. It's the type that is attached with bungees like you typically see on most scopes.

You will need the tripod, but "too strong" is a relative term and depends on what you want to see. These binoculars should make it possible to identify people's faces at a half a mile.

They are for me. There are roll down rubber cups on the oculars that when folded down make use with glasses better, but not as good as without glasses. My solution has been to use a neck chain with my glasses. I just let them drop and hang around my neck while using the binoculars with my naked eyes.

I have these binoculars, they are terrific and exceptional value. I also bought the tripod bracket which works, but not perfectly. The bracket is fairly thick and it prevents the binoculars from closing tightly so if your eyes are fairly close together, you can have trouble with them.

Unfortunately, they do not have any way to attach them to safe keep them. I simply take them off prior to hitting the field and leave them in my vehicle or pockets. They lens covers are attached and simply flip down out of the way...but in all honesty there a pain, because they do on occasion get in the way, especially while bird watching. If you are using a harness strap, you'll find they keep the binoculars tight against the chest. Which will protect both the eye and lens. I do carry a $10 lens pen for emergency cleaning while in the field. Hopefully, this will help you.

They do fold down, which is a great feature if you wear glasses. I also, wondered if the eye cups could hold up to all the folding. After 6yrs, the eye cups are in perfect condition, with no cracks or sign of wear. I am an avid hunter, so I put my equipment through a lot, and these binoculars have stood the test of time!!!

if your talking about the zipperd lid on top that lifts open,ya, i carry standard size binoculars in it,and probably enough room for a little bigger pair, if your talking bout the zippard part on top of the lid my answer is no, its for carring maps or cleaning towels ,like i carry.

With an adapter that is available thru Amazon and others, most any tripod that will accept a camera. You can't attach these without the adapter. It is an L shaped piece of metal that attaches to the front of the binoculars and then to the tripod. Hope this helps.

Yes... The binaculars can be mounted on a tripod. I use mine for bird watching and work great. A special adapter needs to be purchased for some tripods.

I have large hands and they worked very well. Never uncomfortable. Best binoculars I've owned!! The clarity is spectacular.

I think they would work quite well. I used to have a pair of 10X50 binoculars and it was too hard to keep the field of vision steady. Really needed a tripod to see clearly without shaking.However, I'm not a hunter, per se.

I'm sorry, but i cannot answer your question because shortly after getting my binoculars they were taken by the Federal Transportation person from my luggage, so i hardly had a chance to use them. The government's response so far has been, "Sue us!" I may. What I as a naive traveler learned is never pack binoculars in checked luggage.

you can put a key ring on the binoculars and then clip this onto that key ring. i'm taling about a regular key ring you would use for your keys.

They are full sized binoculars and do not fold down. The case is about 8X8X3" They weigh about two pounds but are well balanced and easy to hold. They focus well and is not particularly fussy about being steady.

I am sorry Thomas, I do not know the answer to your question. As a side note, I must correct my previous statement regarding the Celestron Skymaster binoculars I purchased. I stated that they didn't open wide enough to be able to view properly through both eyes. I was WRONG! I discovered that they in fact do operate properly, and I am very happy with them. I will say that I should have purchased the tripod stand that was offered with them at the time. All the best, Jim M.
