  • Great Binos
I purchased these for my mother who is an avid hunter and has been for several years now. The Aculon model is an economically priced model that delivers. These binoculars are very clear and focus tremendously well. I chose the 8x42 set so that they wouldn't be very bulky, and are comfortable to either tote in a pack or wear around the neck while stalking. These are perfectly sized for our type of hunting, which is deer and turkey in mostly forested Alabama. With highline right of ways and very broad gas line right of ways running through our property, these do remarkably well even at only 8 power, viewing game and other wildlife at distances of several hundred yards. 42mm is also a sufficient viewing window, and the eyepieces fit comfortably on your eye sockets(which is a biggie for me, as my focus point is very close and most of the time the eyepiece is against my eye socket). I've hunted for over 20 years and have been through trial and error with optics, but Nikon has yet to disappoint me. I strive for a descent priced set of binoculars but I will not settle for losing clarity, comfort, or quality, and this pair fit my bill perfectly. I would recommend this pair of binoculars to any hunter or outdoorsperson who is looking for a set that is for moderate range (they're not going to pull a buck in for a 20x-zoom close up from 1000 yards to let you count kickers) easy to carry, clear, easy to focus, comfortable, and economically priced. ... show more

  • Quality Binocs. with great price!
Have used a friend's binocs and that is why we ordered them. They seem to stay in focus when passed to another person and also it seems that they don't have to be refocused a lot when another person uses them! And really like that they are great for closeup viewing. We really think you get a lot of quality for a good price and definitely recommend them! ... show more

  • They're very easy to use
These just arrived today, so I'm writing this based upon first impressions. They're very easy to use. The focus responds well and the detail and depth of field is excellent. They're well constructed and fit comfortably in my hands, but they are not water proof, so bear that in mind if you plan to use them out in the field on iffy weather days. They are a wee bit heavy, but these aren't pocket sized, so no real surprises there. The clarity and brightness is outstanding for binoculars in this price category. I told my Husband that I could probably spot a small bug walking on the ground from 40 feet away with these binoculars. This afternoon I used them to watch a the little Pine Warbler that's been visiting our garden, it was great to be able to see him in detail, and it was very easy to follow him with the wider view range. Thus far I am very pleased with these and do not regret my purchase. ... show more

  • Superb optics
This is the second time I have bought this item. My visiting daughter was so impressed with the optics I gifted the first pair to her and replaced them later. The only problem with both pairs was that the right side eyepiece focus adjustment was frozen solid. I had to use considerable force with a channel lock pliers to free them and in the second pair to drip some alcohol into the threads to free them. I presume that the "refurbishment" involved disabling the focus! In spite of this I was so impressed with the optics that there was no way I would return them, especially for the price. ... show more

  • Nice Optics For The Money!
These binoculars were a gift to accompany an astronomical telescope, given as a graduation present. Astronomical applications are a bit more demanding on optics than terrestrial applications typically are, and these binoculars delivered decent star images for their respective cost. NOTE: The "diopter" on the binos I received was a bear to turn and adjust until it got worked around a few dozen times, and if you've got large hands as I do, the screw-out eye cups will get in the way of your twisting the diopter (someone with smaller fingers would not be bothered by this). But once the diopter gets worn in, all is well. I find that many people never learn to use a binocular correctly, as they don't adjust the diopter to suit their individual eye strengths. Most of us, by the time we're adults, have slightly different eye strengths between our left and right eyes, and if you don't adjust your binos to accommodate this, they will never function optimally for you and you'll never be getting you money's worth out of them. Binoculars are ostensibly two small refracting telescopes joined together to yield a binocular (a/k/a stereo) view. To adjust a binocular for your eyes, do the following: 1) Pick a distant, bright target. I like to use a bright star or planet. But it can be anything--a STOP sign, say. 2) Cover the objective lens (at the front) on the side of the binocular that does not have a diopter adjustment for the eyepiece. Now, look at your target and focus it as sharply as you can, using the center focusing adjustment, viewing through that side of the binocular only. Is the image as sharp as you can get it? 3) Now, cover the objective lens you just looked through in Step 2, and look at your target again through the other side. This time, adjust the focus using only the diopter wheel on the eyepiece you are looking through (do not touch the center focuser). Rotate the diopter left or right until your target is as sharp as it is going to get. When the image is sharp--you're done! 4) Uncover both objective lenses and have at it--the binocular has been adjusted for your eyes! From here out, just use the center focuser on anything you want to look at! If you didn't know this, and haven't done this, most of you will be surprised at how much improvement you'll see immediately. And unless somebody readjusts the diopter, you should be set for any viewing you want to do. Since I share my binos with my wife, I usually reset the diopter before any viewing session, as it takes just seconds to do so. RayB ... show more

  • Super Crisp,Super Clear and Super Bright
My brother owns these and the first time I tried them I just knew I had to get a pair. I wear glasses and I can't believe how good they work with them. The view is crystal clear and you can focus fast when you need to. Very awesome, go get yourself a pair, you won't regret it. Highly recommend 👌.
