I was looking for a smaller pair of binoculars to take hunting with me. In the past I have used a 9 x 25 and was looking to get something a little bit brighter, but still in smaller package. I decided to give these Nikons a try and while they are not as compact as my other ones they still are a smaller pair of binoculars that perform very well. I compared them at dusk with my 10 x 42 binoculars and there was not much difference at all in what I could see. I focused in on the street sign and the letters were just as clear at about 150 yards away. I wasn’t looking to spend $300-$400 and I am very satisfied with this purchase.
Pros:
Compares with, or exceeds the brightness capabilities of comparable priced larger binoculars.
Compares with or exceeds light gathering the larger size binoculars in the same price range.
Compares with or exceeds light gathering capabilities versus larger binoculars in the same price range.
Cons:
not the best sight picture
Not as compact as a 9 x 25 but still small enough to carry around with no problem.
Not quite as compact as a 9 x 25 binocular, but better light gathering and still small enough to carry around quite easily.
Best Used for:
Viewing sporting events, wildlife and just general use to view things from a distance.
Would recommend: Yes
