Awesome binos for me (amateur)October 27, 2008 after looking at the reviews for this, i pulled the trigger and picked them up. We hike often through the local parks and these are so sweet! Like I said, not at all a pro at this sort of thing, so they are easy to use and crystal clear along with bringing the life right to one's eyes. The field of vision is pretty stellar as well. I would recommend them to anyone.
Good value for bird watchingSeptember 24, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Having been pretty satisfied with the 10x50 version of this product, I decided to try the 8x40 version. I use them for bird watching and find they give a good clear image. Good value for the price.
Nikon binocularsSeptember 15, 2008 I ordered these binoculars as a hoped-for improvement to a pair of $100 binoculars I have used several years for birding. These are absolutely the best value I could expect for the dollar spent. They are easy to grasp, easy to use with glasses, as well as being sharp and clear. I could not ask for better and would recommend them to anyone needing binoculars for moderate use.
Friends fight over themSeptember 3, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
For the money hard to beat. You can spend a lot more and buy better, but these are all I need. They are fairly good size, not your little pocket lookers.You will look very strange if you bust these our at the opera. First time I use them was in a VIP Suite at at a football game and everyone ended up fighting over who got to use the binoculars next...Even those poeple who brought their own binoculars. They were a hit.
Spectacular deal for the opticsJuly 28, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Very impressed with the quality of this product. Easy to use, a pleasure to view the surrounding environment. Recommend for day hikes, hunting, sports events, birdwatching, or whatever you fancy viewing. Not too cumbersome, portability is not hard labor, compared to heavier models out there. Optics are fantastic- (what else do you expect from Nikon) Thank you for a good product.
