5.0 out of 5 stars Tough and robust,, December 5, 2002

these binoculars from Nikon are excellent, providing a great depth of vision and magnification. There's no colour leaching, or bleed, and the rubber diaphragm cap is securely fitted to avoid any over exposure. The bracket and adjusting screw retract smoothly into the lens housing, and the faux-leather carrying case loops nicely over either shoulder. The strap is particularly hard-wearing and does not bite into the flesh, providing a thick sweatshirt is worn. A fetching electric blue colour, the lenses are clean and speck free, granulated glass providing a rich, diverse prism and optical effect. An excellent all round binocular for taking to the races, the opera, or to the football match. Probably best suited to bird-watching, though. All in all, excellent.

I had an older pair of binoculars, much larger, that I assumed were "just the way it is" when it came to finding objects and bringing them into focus. Surprise! These smaller binoculars are so easy to focus! I am very pleased with their size, weight, and overall ease of use.

I have used different binoculars for decades but as my eyes age I have trouble focusing. The short distance between the eyepieces fix this problem and their light weight allows for easy carrying in hand luggage. This is a great product for astronomers to use at night for star finding only. This product does not allow for high magnification.
