I ordered these binoculars for my husband's birthday. They arrived promptly and in excellent condition; well packed. We both were surprised by how powerful they are and easy to use, WOW! Very, very pleased. They are very light weight (nice for these old arthritic arms and hands). The only possible drawback is that they are not waterproof and need to be kept dry at all times, so DH will not be able to take them along on fishing trips unless he double zipper lock bags them.

This was a great purchase for my purposes - birding and wildlifing. I had to get used to turning the center-focus with ring finger, as the zoom lever is in the index-finger position. To use full zoom, you really need total stability, but half zoom is very useful even from a moving kayak. Right-eye focus ring is right up against the eyecups and hard to move unless you twist open the eyecups, in which case the focus ring is fine. Focus crispness is not quite what I hoped for at full zoom, but still good for seeing field marks. One big advantage is the light weight. This set is as light as the smaller Nikon I lost. Very nice!

Light, easy to use and amazing. The zoom is unbelievable. Great product at a great price. Would recommend to anyone.

For the price, these binoculars provide unparallel carity and easy focus. I like these binoculars so much that I showed them to a couple of co-workers right away. One of them was so impressed that he ordered one for his cousin's birthday. Great product, highly recommended.

Just took a two week vacation,took my binoculars along.
Binoculars are very compact (easy to pack)
Very clear view and the zoom feature is stellar,saw a

mule deer using 8 power,16 gave me a closer view and 24
gave me a perfect rack view.
All in all, the binoculars are even better for my
purposes than I expected )very satisfied!!!

I suppose that I could try to find the rights words to describe these binoculars. Or I could just tell a short story. Our oldest daughter and her husband came for a visit recently. She really loved my binoculars so, hey, she's my daughter and I'm Daddy; I gave them to her. These are not my only binoculars. But I liked them so much I bought a second pair.

When I was looking for Binoculars the fist concession I had to make was that I was trying to fill a particurlar need and not looking for an all time intergalactic technical marvel... I'm not sure such a thing actually exists but I can tell you for sure its pretty pricy. But if you ever go driving or camping and say "Wow I wish I had some Binoculars" this is the one I recommend. It is "Quality" by experience and the price will help keep you from feeling the dreaded "expensive paper weight" syndrome when you are not using them...

The binoculars were purchased as a gift for my son. He has been pleased with the light weight and ease of use. The Nikon Eagleview 8-24x25 zoom binoculars are helpful at sporting events, on walking trails & for bird watching. It was a good gift.

I have had a number of pairs of binoculars and these are by far the best. I didn't know if the zoom capacity would be sufficient when I ordered the binoculars; but it is more than enough. I have had problems in the past with other binoculars when I try to get just one image rather than two; but these binoculars adjust sufficiently close so that this isn't an issue.

Used for general viewing, camping, trekking, etc. Not meant for seeing 10 miles away, but great for general use. Comes in a nice case too.
