Summary: 5 Stars
THE BEST BINOCULARS I HAVE OWNED,AND I HAVE HAD MANY. EXCELLENT CLARITY,GREAT FIELD OF VIEW TOO. NICE SIZE ALSO NOT TO BIG, NOT TO SMALL. YOU CANT GO WRONG WITH THIS FINE SET,HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.Digital camera Review: Nice binocs
Summary: 4 Stars
Nice binoculars - the only pick I had with these is they seem a bit too bulky but I'm used to the little fold up models so it may just be me. The optics are nice and clear.Digital camera Review: Nice but does show distortion at field edges
Summary: 3 Stars
The click-set eye-cups are nice and the eye-relief is reasonable even with glasses. Field of view is about the largest you'll get and image is bright. They are pleasant to use. Weight is about standard for this size of binocular. The downside is that there is considerable distortion or blur in the outer 1/3 to 1/4 of the field of view. The edges of the field definitely do not look in focus. However, the field of view is so large that you don't notice the distortion unless you look towards the edges. There is some chromatic aberration, but it is not particularly disturbing.
Obviously you get what you pay for and the reason these binos are cheap is because of the above optical flaws. I can't say how these Nikons compare to others in the price class but I feel that they are probably good value for money. If you're on a <$150 budget then these are probably one of your best bets. My rating reflects the optical quality more than the value for money because I personally would rather spend a little more cash for better optics.

These are the best ever. I use them to watch wildlife in a field afar and they are very steady. I can see the spots on our baby deer at least 1/2 mile away.Digital camera Review: Nikon 7328 binoculars

Bought these for my wife. She is a birder and needed something light and easy to use. She loves em. I recommend them.
