I was looking for a medium-powered pair of binoculars for back yard astronomy. I had picked up a pair of Bushnell 10X50′s for a few dollars less than the Nikon’s and I was disappointed with the quality (there was something wrong with the optics… could not get them to ever completely focus). I promptly returned them and picked up these. What a difference! They were much clearer than the Bushnell’s, and the focus is extremely sharp in the center. I take them out just about every night and they offer me a great view of the sky. If you’re looking for a good all-around pair of binoculars that’s worth more than what you’re paying, look no further!
These are wonderful binoculars. Rugged, and easy to use, these binoculars have great clarity, as much magnification as you can get without spending thousands of dollars, and come with a 20 year guarantee from one of the best optic producers in the world. You really can’t go wrong on this one.
I know these are a fraction of the cost of some binoculars but for amateur use the Action series are fine for everyday viewing. The Nikon name also means a lot and considering that it comes with the tripod mount, they are well worth the money.
