Nikon Action 7-15x35 Zoom Binocular


Brand name binocular, superb optics, really great price!
I've owned several binoculars prior to this type, this is my 2nd Nikon, the first one being the regular Action 7X35. As with any Nikon optical product, the optics of these binoculars are superb. The Bak-4 High Index Prism optics offer sharp,detailed images with little or no distortion. And the sharpness is amazing. The optics enhances the images and with the 7-15x magnification, there is very little you cannot magnify. As with all binoculars that doesn't have image stabilization, you will have shaking at the highest magnification. Smart thing to do is use this with a tripod of which, this binocular is equipped with a slot to screw-in your tripod. Very handy if you want to extend magnification without getting dizzy in the process. The rubber armoring of pretty much solid, offering protection from the usual bumps and drops. It also comes with rubber caps to protect both the eyepiece and objective lenses from dusts and smudges. Also comes with its own case to store it when not in use...
Great compact binocular
Solidly built, compact size, a tad on the heavy side. Not fog nor water proof; the lens cover are not attached to the body, and may get lost once removed. Great image quality, smooth zoom operation. A great compact binocular.
Heavy, good optics and zoom
You buy 7x35's for better depth of field, so that you don't need to constantly refocus as objects move toward or away from you. These will do nicely, plus they have a good zoom to 15x if you need it.

The binoculars are on the heavy side, surprisingly so. Mine arrived with the left and right sides a little out of alignment, but my eyes can compensate after a second. The brightness was good for a 35mm objective lens. All-in-all, a good deal for the money.
