Great little binoculars/terrible instruction manual February 20, 2007
4 out of 7 found this review helpful
I received these binoculars as a Christmas gift. They are light, compact & water resistant. I had never before seen binoculars with "turn-and-slide eyecups" - I like them a lot.
The instruction manual is very user un-friendly. It is written in 6 languages. Instead of separating the manual into separate sections for each language, the precautions, including maintenance & storage, are written in small segments in 3 languages on each page. This is followed by the operation sections, which is separated by language. I guess Nikon must think it's confusing, too, as there is a table of contents in the front of the manual in each of the 6 languages Fortunately, an instruction manual isn't needed much for binculars.
 A little Gem to Carry with you May 28, 2008

I am a Nikon fan and have many products of Nikon. I just love these little waterproof binocluars. I think for ther size, the waterproof and adjustable eye cups they are great. They do have a dial for focusing as well and they even come with a case and are the size of point and shoot cameras. I wouldn't say pocket size but close and they are well made and heavy so a coat pocket in the winter yes otherwise they will fit into a backpack, purse very easily and come with covers for the lenses too. All in all for a small set and certainly not the highest magnification they do what they are intended to do. For me it is just hiking and using them when on the water or near the river and from high above in my city apt looking out over the river and skyline of NYC.
Great compact Binoculars August 27, 2008
These are really compact, smaller than the 8 x25 Sportstars and feel great in the hands. The wide angle makes a big difference when birding as does their being waterproof and fog proof. They are as good, I feel better, than the travelite 5s although a tad heavier. Well constructed, good optics and in their price range amongst the top. Give them serious consideration or buy up at least +150$
 These binoculars are a disappointment November 20, 2008
I"ve got 50 year's experience with good binoculars and wanted a knock-around, inexpensive pair that was waterproof, fit in my pocket like these clamshells, and had good optics (obviously). I've generally used Nikon and Bushnells, so I started with those. While these Nikons are light, waterproof, and well designed, the optics are not good, I tried three pair (including the 10x25s) over a total of two months and all three were out of alignment. They gave me headaches. I finally decided on Vortex Typhoons - which are a GREAT binocular for the money. I was amazed at the quality of the Vortex over the Nikons and Bushnells.
