Bushnell Monoculars
Bushnell’s monoculars are for people who want something small and easy to carry without giving up too much magnification.
Whether you are hiking, travelling, watching wildlife or at a sporting event, a monocular is quicker to grab and easier to pocket than a full pair of binoculars.
What sets Bushnell apart is that it does not just make one type. There are models for daytime use, night use and even thermal imaging. There are options depending on what you need.
Bushnell Legend Monoculars
Most Legend monoculars use ED Prime glass, which cuts down on colour fringing and keeps images looking sharp and clean.
The optics are fully multi coated too, which helps let more light through and produces brighter views in tricky conditions.
The housing is sturdy and waterproof, so rain, woodland and coastal trips are not a problem.
Bushnell Equinox Digital Night Vision Monoculars
The Equinox range are built for use after dark. They use a digital sensor and a built in infrared light to let you see in low light or full darkness. Depending on which model you go for, you can also record video, take photos, use digital zoom and connect to your phone via Wi-Fi to share footage.
They are popular for watching nocturnal wildlife, camping and general night time use.
Bushnell Cellular Core Live Monocular
The Cellular Core Live is a thermal monocular, meaning it picks up heat rather than visible light.
It can live stream and share images through your phone. It is useful for spotting wildlife hiding in dark or dense vegetation.
It is not a traditional monocular but for anyone interested in thermal imaging in a handheld device, it is a good option.
Which Bushnell Monocular Should You Choose?
It comes down to when and how you plan to use it. For daytime use outdoors, the Legend series is the straightforward choice.
If you are out after dark, the Equinox night vision range does the job well. And if you want to detect heat signatures rather than rely on light at all, the Cellular Core Live is the one for you.
