Nikon Action 7x35 Reviews

Great wide view

These bins are great everyday binoculars. I leave them in my truck for "you never know" occasions. The 5 mm exit pupil makes them a decent night time use binocular and the extra wide field of view makes them perfect for sporting events, especially when you are stuck in the nose-bleed section.

Excellent at this price point

I own another pair of 7x35 binoculars, and thought they were pretty good until I picked up these Nikons. There's no comparison. The Nikon's optics are far superior. Images are sharp from edge to edge. There is a minimal amount of purple fringing and internal reflections, even under harsh lighting conditions. The FOV is a very wide 489' (9.2 degrees). I doubt there is a better pair of binoculars at this low price point.

Pros:
Excellent multicoated optics.
Ultra Wide FOV.
Well built.
Great value.
25 year Limited Warranty. No Fault Policy.

Cons:
Mediocre accessories. (lens caps, case)
'Weather Resistant'. Not waterproof/fogproof.
A little heavy.

Unbelievable quality for the money spent

solid construction and excellent optics. reviewers worried about trifles like straps, carry case,and plastic lens covers need to realize that binoculars are for looking through. the other stuff is irrelevant.

Nikon Action 7x35 Ultra-Wide Binocular
by Larry E. Laughman from Manchester, PA., 2009-08-15

Since becoming bird watchers my wife needed her own binoculars.
We tried these at the local sporting goods store but bought them
at Amazon to save a few bucks. The image is very sharp and they
are easy to focus. My wife loves them.

Great for birds
by D. Borrego from Michigan, 2009-06-01

I bought these binoculars for bird watching and for that purpose they work great. I have a pair of 10x50 and although I really like them I wanted something smaller and steadier. I will still use my 10x50's but more for raptors in flight or bird watching in the woods, these ones are a lot more confortable when watching birds at a medium range, casual bird watching around the house or simply trying to follow a bird to its nest (due to the large field of view).

There is some distortion around the outer edges but it isn't bad, I actually only noticed it because I was deliberately looking for it. The images are sharp and I am surprised at how bright the images are considering the price and size of the lenses. Some bird watching sites would have you believe that you have to spend an arm and a leg on a pair of binoculars in order to bird watch properly, that is not the case. This pair will show all the detail on birds (even the tiny ones).
