 Great compact zoom binocs Jun 09, 2010
These Nikon compact binoculars have a great image quality for the price and the zoom feature is a nice addition. They are very light and compact, but not so small as to be hard to work the controls (focus, zoom etc...) Although the field of view decreases when one zooms-in and the image brightness decreases, both expected effects, the overall image quality is still high allowing close-up views of a subject of interest. Of course the image is less steady at the higer magnification, but that can be ameliorated by bracing the binocs on a walking stick or other fixed solid object like a fence or wall for prolonged viewing if need be.
good for travel Jan 04, 2010
I purchased these binoculars for a trip to Belize with my wife. Yes, I saw a toucan. They are light and easy to carry during hikes. The optics are excellent for travel, but i have seen better on full size. The only down side is that you must brace/support yourself when using the x24 setting and still a fair amount of shake. So most of the time used x8-16 range. But nice, to be able to zoom in once located with lower power.

Portable versatility ! Oct 06, 2009
I wanted binoculars that are clear, easy to carry and use but had the capability of increased magnification when needed. My Nikon 8 to 24 zoom binos are just what I hoped for. They weigh less than 14 Oz and are convenient to carry in a belly pack on hikes or when vacationing. They are clear and easy to operate. The maximum magnification will not be used every time and it requires a steady hold but it is available if desired. Just knowing that the power is there gives me confidence that I am going to get more out of my travels.
The view is sharp out to the edges in all magnifications. In late evening this product does not gather as much light as some 8 x 50 or 10 x 50 glasses will do but the Nikon zoom still allows me to see subjects very well. My binoculars have an ease of use, with or without eye glasses.
I rated this product at five stars because it was compared with what I required and NOT against some $ 2000 pair of fixed magnification binoculars.
How many times have you wanted to get "closer" to something in nature or an item of interest while on vacation ? You may never have a second chance, so be ready.

 Nikon zoom binoculars Sep 19, 2009
Wanted these for travel and birdwatching. Too hard to focus and when you zoom you cannot hold them still enough to use. Not a good product. I am a Nikon fan and this product is not up to their standards.

I am fully satisfied. Apr 17, 2009
I am fully satisfied both with the product and the customer service (shipment speed, informing through, replies etc.). I have bought also 50mm diameter zoom binoculars of Nikon (10-22x50 Action). This is smaller and has better view. Highly recommended.
