Last Year’s Best Deals vs This Year
Black Friday binocular pricing can vary dramatically from year to year, and many birders want to know whether they’re actually getting a better deal now than they would have in previous seasons. Based on historical pricing patterns from leading brands, 2025 is shaping up to be one of the strongest years for genuine reductions.
Bushnell H2O 10×42
Last year’s Black Friday price briefly dipped to around $72, but the model spent most of 2024 closer to the $80–$90 range. This year, we’ve already seen it hit $63, which is the lowest price in at least two years. For budget-conscious birders, this is one of the standout deals of the season.
Bushnell Falcon 10×50
The Falcon has been a perennial entry-level favourite, but its pricing rarely moves much. In 2024, it hovered between $42–$45 during Black Friday This year it’s fallen to $35, marking its deepest discount in recent memory, and making it arguably the best-value sub-$50 binocular available.
Celestron TrailSeeker ED 8×42
The TrailSeeker ED series typically sees modest Black Friday promotions last year, most retailers offered around $320–$330 at the lowest. This year’s drop to $294 is unusual, placing it well below its historic average and making it one of the strongest mid-range optics deals currently available.
Steiner Marine 7×50
Premium optics rarely see large cuts. Last year, this model fluctuated between $215–$230 during Black Friday week. For 2025, the Black Friday price of $189 brings it under the $200 threshold for the first time in several years—a meaningful reduction for anyone looking for brighter, wide-field marine-style binoculars.
ZEISS Terra ED 8×42
ZEISS discounts are typically conservative. In 2024, the Terra ED line briefly touched $399 but usually stayed over $430. The 2025 price of $374 places it at its lowest Black Friday price since launch, and well below average ZEISS promotional levels.
