Overall Rating:

Retail Price: $250.95

Amazon Price: $124.99

OUR RATING: 8/10

These bins are very compact. They fit neatly into the average garment pocket – ideal for travel, sporting events, concerts etc. Although designed with the traveller in mind, they perform equally well for local nature spotting, or a visit to the theatre.

Customers comment about how surprisingly light they are, and it’s pretty cool having powerful zoom binoculars fit snugly in your pocket.

They are also impressed by the user-friendly zoom controls.

Here’s a quick run-down of the main features:

OPTICS

• smooth zoom control – select power effortlessly with the push of a finger
• hard to keep a steady image at higher magnification without a tripod
• so powerful for their compactness – I could clearly see crater rings on the moon, for example
• true color rendition and crisp, clear viewing
• 240 foot field of view at 1000 yards when set on 8 power

DESIGN

• extremely light weight
• sleek, ergonomic design with comfortable grips
• dual hinge polycarbonate body – both light and durable

CONCLUSION

When you throw in a Full Life Time Warranty, it’s hard to find fault with these nocs. How do Nikon pack so much power into such a small gadget?
