Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
As a backyard astronomer and novice outdoorsman, I know that serious users of binoculars will tell you that zoom binocs are almost never recommended. Zoom binocs tend to have a lot of problems with being usable at higher magnification. Even with another $80 pair of zooms, I end up seeing a crossing of views (or blackout) through the left and right eyepieces with even moderate increase in magnification. That being said, this pair of Nikon Action zoom binocs is probably the best pair of zooms you can get. I find them to actually be usable throughout most of range, though stability (shaky hands) are an issue once you reach high magnification (unless you are using a tripod). The fact that they work this well, though, is pretty much a miracle. Nikon quality really proves itself here. If you are dead set on one pair of binocs, and those being zooms, then I recommend these as your only real choice.
