Will these be good for hunting

Yes, but it isn’t very sporting and there is no meat on these binoculars whatsoever.

What are the farthest objects in the night sky that one could see with this specific pair of binoculars? Can you see any planets?

Well technically one can see the great Andromeda galaxy (M31) with relative ease and good resolution in the night sky. The galaxy is about 2.5 million light years from earth (15 million-trillion miles), which is pretty far away Other objects that can be well studied with these binoculars include the Orion Nebula (1600 light years away), the craters on the moon, the pleadies star cluster (425 light years away), and much more. One can study planets using these binoculars too. With these, one can make out the 4 largest moons of Jupiter, and the elliptical shape of Saturn and its rings. I've also used these to locate the distant planets Neptune and Uranus I'm the sky. Ultimately the quality of viewing will depend on dark-sky conditions (light pollution, etc)These are good binoculars for their price.

Can the focus be adjusted for near-sightedness?

Yes, it can be adjusted on the right eye piece to compensate for near sightedness. Helps me a lot since I have astigmatism in my right eye.

How would I go about using a tripod with these? What items would I need to get?

These are only 7x binoculars. You won't need a tripod until you get into higher magnifications. 7x50 used to be good standard binoculars for decades, because it offered enough magnification while still being able to easily hand-hold them steadily. At 10x it starts to get more difficult to keep them steady. 50mm lenses in them are just large enough to make images bright & sharp enough to see clear even in shady areas, shadows, & star gazing.
