| purchased these as a gift for my mother who is a backyard bird watcher and she loves them. easy to use, durable, lightweight, and they are very clear. the only thing i do not like are the viewing lens caps. they do not press on snugly like the large lens caps. other than that, very satisfied. |

I get the reviewers' comments about the great glasses but the lack of heft gave caution; mine, no internal fogging; but, I've not been in inclement weather or even in cold. I hate the lens covers for both the lenses. Also, since Nikon came out with a new model on Amazon's site, went for the non-new one for 50 USD less. Have the 1000 USD heavy superior Swarovski glasses; these Nikons are so far superior in comfort and nearly as clear and comparable to the swarovskis, I've not had them A-B compared to Leicas; I've used the Leica glasses that one reviewer mentioned; and, no it doesn't have the "heft" of the Leica glasses; however, the Leicas are 5X the cost, too.
The person whose review said that they took these on a Safari and found that their lightness and cost gave them comfort in carrying them without fear of breaking a $Grand pair of glasses was compelling; Now that I have mine, too, I agree. As I have a thousand dollar pair that are heavier and a slight bit brighter in low light; I only wish that these had been out over 15 years ago when I forked out that much for them, there's no contest between for the dollar and convenience which is better and which I'd pick today if the Nikons had existed then: the Nikons hands down. |
Excellent value.

| I wanted the lightest pair of 8x42 binocs and found these. I've used these along with my Leica Duovids and cannot see a $1,800 difference. An excellent bright image. Great value. |
Poor quality

| Total disapointment! Had these same binos that I purchased a year or so earlier. I guess Nikon changed the way these binos are manufactured because the new ones don't come close to the quality of the old ones. Super Bummed! |
