➡Full Review of these Vortex Diamondback HD 15x56 Binoculars is now Live: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/Vortex-Diamondback-HD-15x56-Binoculars-Review-270.htm
Yes these unboxing videos are really good for those who are thinking of buying the products that you are unboxing. It does give the viewer a little more of an ideal of what the product is all about other than what the pictures are like on line, keep doing it I'm very much in favor of it!👍
Hi, thanks for the feedback - yes they are more popular than I had expected and fairly easy / less time consuming for me to make, so I will continue, thanks.
Great video. I have learned more about binoculars in the last few days from watching your videos. Thanks for what you do. I'd be happy to take that cap off your hands! 🙂
Jason very good review of the unboxing. Yes a few now and then of a unboxing video would be good. You put the hat on and if I win that hat I can say that I won it from the best , honest review person on you tube for binoculars by far. I have learned more from you than any other video or in person store salesman by far. Thank you so much for top notch info. Oh P.S. I did not expect you to put on that hat. You timed it right. Looking foward to more videos on the binocular most people are going for these days I believe is the 12x50, or 12x 56.
Hi Anthony, Many thanks for the kind words, and good luck! Yes, it seems higher magnifications are all the rage at the moment - even Swarovski has added a 12x42 to their lineup: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/blog/swarovski-nl-pure-binoculars-review-of-main-features-07/ - For me, it is most often not good thing as there are many downsides to higher powers - but in the right situation it is great to get the extra reach & image detail. For instance, I was really surprised by how much I liked using the Maven B5 18x56 Binoculars www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/Maven-B5-18x56-Binoculars-Review-263.htm
Wow .. ok, so far I have had an almost 100% positive response to this video which to be honest I was not really expecting as it was completely unscripted and thus I do a lot of umming and aahing! Anyway please continue to let me know if you like this type of unboxing / first reactions video - but for the moment I will continue making them - For me, it is actually quite nice as they are fairly easy/quick to make (From start to publishing this took me a day whereas most of my videos take 2 - 3 days to produce) and I do feel that apart from a quick preview of the binocular, it is also a nice way for me to show you what reviews you can look forward to on BBR.
Sir, which is best binocular for bird watching, mountains watching etc. For beginner users? Plz, tell me sir, binocular brand name and magnification & object size.
Hi this is impossible to say in just a few lines as it depends on Many, many things - so I would start here: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/guides/ But if you just want to get something quickly without learning, take a look at what I feel are the Best Value For Money Binoculars that I have tested: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/binoculars-best-value.php
I tried a pair of vortex diamondback HD 8x42 and I must admit for the price they’re great. I won’t be using them over my zeiss conquest HD, but they will be left in the truck for scouting when my zeiss are not on hand. Great review mate
Hi Allan, Not a bad list of brands to have an affinity with _ It is one thing that i do like about binoculars - the fact that all the main brands kind of have their own personalities, strengths and weaknesses etc. www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/blog/which-brand-is-best-for-binoculars-10/
Thanks for your honest reviews , i want so much a good binoculars. But unfortunately must wait to past the epidemic to find a job again. cheers from Brasil
You are welcome and thanks for the kind words.. Also stay safe for now, hopefully life can return to normal soon and you get the job of your dreams. All the best wishes.
Great timing. After a bit of research I’m decided on Vortex for sure but wasn’t sure if the Viper HD was worth the price increase compared to the Diamondback
Absolute fan of vortex. Still thought your review was honest and objective. Should do some more product unboxing videos. I'm loosing hair and my buddies say I should get a cap so that they can see where my forehead starts.
Many thanks for the feedback .. so far it seems this type of unboxing & first impressions video is popular - so I think I will make more in the future.
Hi Matt, yes I have found that with many/most of the camera companies that also make binoculars - I think in the camera industry it is normal to not get a case with the camera as it is strangely expected that you will go out and get your own, so I think they find it hard to accept that they need to give one away and as such they don't spend much on them!
BBR: That was probably one of the most visually congested Video Thumbnails..keep it simple, less IS more sometimes. Great Video. Vortex gear seems to be relative quality. I'll try the Solo RT 8x36 Monocular
Hi - you are of course right - thanks for reminding me. I have heard good things about the Vortex Solo RT 8x36 Monocular and expect it will offer great value for money like many of their binos. Let me know how you get on with them when you get a chance. More info on monoculars here if anyone is interested: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/monoculars/best-monoculars.php
Hello friend what would be the best and safe place to buy this binoculars since they're good quality binoculars but expensive at the same time please !!
Hi, I have just gone over my review to check www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/Vortex-Diamondback-HD-15x56-Binoculars-Review-270.htm - As you can see they are fully sealed and described as waterproof, but I could not find any mention as to a recognized industry standard, so not sure. I guess you could ask Vortex, I have found their customer service department to be pretty good at responding. Let me know if you find out and I will update my review.
@@Bestbinocularsreviews Thank you. I have called their customer support and left a voicemail over the weekend. Should probably hear something in a couple of days and will let you know.
@@Bestbinocularsreviews I contacted Vortex's customer service and was told that the Diamondback binoculars are IPX7 waterproof rated. Don't understand why they would not include this in their advertising though. Just bought a pair of the 10x42mm Diamondbacks!
Excellent, many thanks for coming back with the confirmation - I would be interested to hear how you find and get on with your new Diamondback's once you have had a chance to use them for a bit.
@@Bestbinocularsreviews I will be taking them fishing with me today at Ponce Inlet in Florida. I also got an email from a Wyatt Cole with Vortex's sales and technical department and he also verified that the Diamondbacks are waterproof to IPX7 standards.
Hi Jason, I like your profound style of unboxing video and I am looking forward to seeing more of them. One thing that has occurred to me more than once while doing research for my personal best binocular: Some companies seem to brand and advertise basically the same binoculars made in China under different brand names. For example, the Barr and Stroud Sierra looks very similar to the Celestron Nature DX. Same for the Meade Rainforest Pro and the Carson VP. I would really appreciate a video from you regarding this phenomenon. I am sure you have quite something to say about this. #VortexBinoculars
Hi, I am not 100% sure about the case you mention, but yes this is for sure the case with many lower costing instruments, they will all have the same design and just be re-branded. Not this is not just the case with binoculars as we see it in many other areas .. from washing machines to televisions.. it is just how the world is at the moment. This for me is one of the major differences between cheap vs more expensive binoculars: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/blog/expensive-vs-cheap-binoculars-04/
Hi Paul - Yo are right in that in low light, the maximum dilation that your pupils can reach is about 7mm. However the 15 in the 15x56 configuration refers to the magnification of the binocular not the exit pupil. For more see my video and article on What the binocular numbers mean: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/blog/binocular-numbers-mean-12/ - The exit pupil size of a binocular can be calculated by dividing the objective lens diameter by the magnification. So in this case it would be 56÷15, which give us an exit pupil of approx 3.7mm indicating that whilst not terrible, these will likely not be the ideal choice in low light situations - For more on why etc: Exit Pupil - The Complete Guide: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/blog/exit-pupil-06/
Hi Sam, It is hard for me to say as I have not used or tested the Nikon Monarch 5 16x56 binoculars. But you can compare the specifications against each other - her is what I do when trying to choose between different binoculars: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/blog/which-binoculars-to-choose-08/
Greetings from Essex, UK! Nice review but your new camera isn't great at focusing on what you need it to! 😂 I'm hopefully getting some 12x50 Diamondback but really fancy a Badlands harness... it's the Wind River movie product placement that really worked!!! Nice hat... 😉
Hi, the focusing issues are certainly user error and not the fault of the camera - I just need to get my head around all the settings - that is one thing I like about binoculars - nice and easy to use! I too really like the look of most of the Badlands harnesses www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/blog/kuiu-vs-badlands-bino-harness-12/ - however for how I generally use my binoculars, they don't need so much protection, so I often use a far lighter setup. Currently, I really enjoy using both the Cotton Carrier Skout www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/blog/cotton-skout-binocular-harness-review-11 and the S4Gear LockDown harness which I have had for ages: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/blog/lockdown-optics-deployment-system-06/
Hi Dean, If I get a moment I will see what i can do, but it will have to be just based on their features and specifications list as Bushnell don't send me their binoculars to review :-(
I have two of the Bushnell Legend L-Series binoculars and for the money they are pretty darn good! The M-Series are even better! Although I think they are discontinued but some dealers still have some in stock.
Everyone: BBR = Best Binocular Reviews Me: BBR = Best Binocular Resource Lol keep it up guy, just picked up a set of Vortex 10x42 Razor UHDs the other day. Kinda wish I went with the 12x50 but really am enjoying these. #VortexBinoculars By the way, I can't wait till you get your hands on a set of Swarovski NL Pures.
Really like your videos. Can you suggest me binoculars that can view the largest distance without using a tripod, will be using them as a traveller. Should I buy these? and also where can I get the best price. Thank you.
Hi Paresh, thanks for the kind words. Being able to keep the view still and shake free varies from person to person and depends on the position I am in, how large/heavy the binoculars are and how long I am using the binocular for. So for example standing up, I am a little less stable than sitting down and if I am able to rest my elbows onto a table top or something, even better. But yes, I can certainly use these 15x binoculars from the hands for short periods.. indeed I could also use the 18x Maven B5 18x56 Binoculars www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/Maven-B5-18x56-Binoculars-Review-263.htm from the hands, but the image is by no means as stable as when I am looking through an 8x binocular. So ideally you would use them with a tripod/monopod (which may be a good idea for travel). Personally, from the hands, the maximum I would choose would be a 12x , so something like the Athlon 12x50 Midas www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/AthlonMidas12x50BinocularsReview-247.htm could be a good option, or for travel you may want something a little more compact, so something like the Steiner Wildlife Pro 12x30 www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/Steiner12x30WildlifePro-13.htm but this will mean they are not good in low light.
You are welcome and I actually just wrote an article based on your question: Long Distance Binoculars without a Tripod www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/blog/best-long-distance-binoculars-without-a-tripod-07/
Just like opinions on crispness image quality to the edge color differences such things like that I don't see any videos comparing top tier budget vs top tier high end
I like that you have quality over quantity in your reviews that you actual test the bins before you write about them, i have a pair of vortex vipers 8x42 which i found to be very good value for money #VortexBinoculars i would like to see you test out some spotting scope if its possible that would be interesting like the Athlon scopes would be interesting to see a review on in the future
Thanks for the kind words and feedback on the Vipers.. I need to try a pair soon. Also your in luck with the scope as I actually a new Hawke scope just arrived on my desk the other day.. Whick I am looking forward to testing..
My neighbour thinks I'm a stalker. At least that's what I think she wrote in her diary... it’s hard to read through my 10x50. You get me thinking, these Diamondback 15x56 maybe the answer. Thanks a lot! #VortexBinoculars
Beautiful design of vortex diamondback HD. But 15x? that mean Astronomy and open landscape, african safari, Siberia or coast observation only whit tripod during a day. x56 mean heavy category. A lots of glass and metal, but also a lots of light gathering. Definitly not allrounder or B.O.B. binos, i like it anyway because it’s special.
Yip, it is an unboxing video - you can find the review of the binoculars here: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/Vortex-Diamondback-HD-15x56-Binoculars-Review-270.htm
What are you observing - but in general an 8x42 / 10x42's are good all-rounders - here are some good value ones that I recommend in a range of budgets www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/binoculars-best-value.php
Ok, I understand now, but DO Not look at the sun with any binoculars that are not specifically designed for it. I have heard of ruby coatings - these are usually on very cheap binoculars and NOT designed to look at the sun, you will damage your eyes. I do know that Celestron do make a solar safe binocular called the EclipSmart Solar for more and where to buy them: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/buy-binoculars.php?binocular=Celestron%20EclipSmart%20Solar&typeofproduct=Binoculars&id=brand
@@Bestbinocularsreviews Thanks! but I was looking for a type of binoculars with a ruby coating so that in bright Sunny weather it was comfortable to watch. are there any such options?
Hi mate , sold now the vortex and got Steiner Ranger extreme 8x56 which is still a mid level but what a mid level picture !!! Ohh , this is top !! A German Smith / pecan glass not made in other countries, the very top quality 4k or 8k view details , etc .the box it's simple ,doesn't need any advertise or highlits.
Hi Marius, here I don't agree with you - yes, these are on the cheaper end of the scale, but for most "normal" people out there the $350 / £350 / €350 or so that you have to spend on them means these are not "cheap" ( check prices here www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/buy-binoculars.php?binocular=Vortex15x56Diamondback%20HD&id=270 ) and whilst they cannot compete with high-end binoculars, they are certainly not bad for a lower cost high powered binocular.
Hi mate , trust me , everything you will get highlighted on the outside box , warranty, all stamps and features is just to make you buying the product , lots of extras like harness, and all shiny box with features. I just sold them and add another few hundred bucks and bought the Steiner Ranger Extreme 8x56 and the box it's coming simple and no need for advertise at all. Guess what .. those binos don't need any advertise or proof of capability. They are stunning 😍!!!! Absolutely stunning. The view it's like 8k ultra cinema view , the touch , the materials involved , etc . The glass it's genuine German glass not made on overseas country Smith Pecan glass , actually you gonna see things better than your eye vision capability. This is a budget .. for people which can afford top brands and its performing exactly as 3 times the price mate

I'd like to see how those 15x56 hd's compare to viper hd 12x50's
Just like opinions on crispness image quality to the edge color differences such things like that I don't see any videos comparing top tier budget vs top tier high end
I like that you have quality over quantity in your reviews that you actual test the bins before you write about them, i have a pair of vortex vipers 8x42 which i found to be very good value for money #VortexBinoculars i would like to see you test out some spotting scope if its possible that would be interesting like the Athlon scopes would be interesting to see a review on in the future
Thanks for the kind words and feedback on the Vipers.. I need to try a pair soon. Also your in luck with the scope as I actually a new Hawke scope just arrived on my desk the other day.. Whick I am looking forward to testing..
#vortexbinoculars love you reviews would wear that hat with pride as I have vortex binoculars
My neighbour thinks I'm a stalker. At least that's what I think she wrote in her diary... it’s hard to read through my 10x50.
You get me thinking, these Diamondback 15x56 maybe the answer. Thanks a lot!

... Dude that is more than a little creepy! I trust it is tongue in cheek..
Beautiful design of vortex diamondback HD.
But 15x? that mean Astronomy and open landscape, african safari, Siberia or coast observation only whit tripod during a day.
x56 mean heavy category. A lots of glass and metal, but also a lots of light gathering.
Definitly not allrounder or B.O.B. binos, i like it anyway because it’s special.
Yes exactly - different binocular configurations will have their strenghts and weaknesses and will thus be better suited for different uses etc.
It took you 12 min to get to the binoculars
Yip, it is an unboxing video - you can find the review of the binoculars here: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/Vortex-Diamondback-HD-15x56-Binoculars-Review-270.htm
Advise binoculars for observations in Sunny weather from the sun.
What are you observing - but in general an 8x42 / 10x42's are good all-rounders - here are some good value ones that I recommend in a range of budgets www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/binoculars-best-value.php
Best Binocular Reviews I'd like a pair of binoculars to observe the sun. there is a pair of binoculars with ruby-coated, you know this?
Ok, I understand now, but DO Not look at the sun with any binoculars that are not specifically designed for it. I have heard of ruby coatings - these are usually on very cheap binoculars and NOT designed to look at the sun, you will damage your eyes. I do know that Celestron do make a solar safe binocular called the EclipSmart Solar for more and where to buy them: www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/buy-binoculars.php?binocular=Celestron%20EclipSmart%20Solar&typeofproduct=Binoculars&id=brand
@@Bestbinocularsreviews Thanks! but I was looking for a type of binoculars with a ruby coating so that in bright Sunny weather it was comfortable to watch. are there any such options?
Good for astronomy?
Hi Alberto, Yes the potential is there for sure and it is something that I will be testing and will include in my full review 👍
Spend some money on game calls, let the elk come to you. You're Welcome
wearing that hat will make me look sexy like you
😜👍
Stay away from entry level binos . Spend few bucs more and get mid level . It's night and day compare
Yes, exactly - In most cases this is what I too would recommend.
Hi mate , sold now the vortex and got Steiner Ranger extreme 8x56 which is still a mid level but what a mid level picture !!! Ohh , this is top !! A German Smith / pecan glass not made in other countries, the very top quality 4k or 8k view details , etc .the box it's simple ,doesn't need any advertise or highlits.
And it's really 1/2 more of the price of the cheap glass of vortex !!?? It's definitely worth everything
Cheap binos , vortex 15 x56 diamond back are cheap. Lots of distortion and chromatic aberration, only 1 plus , the magnification
Hi Marius, here I don't agree with you - yes, these are on the cheaper end of the scale, but for most "normal" people out there the $350 / £350 / €350 or so that you have to spend on them means these are not "cheap" ( check prices here www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/buy-binoculars.php?binocular=Vortex15x56Diamondback%20HD&id=270 ) and whilst they cannot compete with high-end binoculars, they are certainly not bad for a lower cost high powered binocular.
Hi mate , trust me , everything you will get highlighted on the outside box , warranty, all stamps and features is just to make you buying the product , lots of extras like harness, and all shiny box with features. I just sold them and add another few hundred bucks and bought the Steiner Ranger Extreme 8x56 and the box it's coming simple and no need for advertise at all. Guess what .. those binos don't need any advertise or proof of capability. They are stunning 😍!!!! Absolutely stunning. The view it's like 8k ultra cinema view , the touch , the materials involved , etc . The glass it's genuine German glass not made on overseas country Smith Pecan glass , actually you gonna see things better than your eye vision capability. This is a budget .. for people which can afford top brands and its performing exactly as 3 times the price mate
