Digital camera reviews of Nikon 7430 Monarch 8x42mm All-Terrain BinocularsDigital camera Review: Best binoculars for the money... Summary: 5 Stars
These are great all-around binoculars, offering superb performance and sturdiness for the money. Only higher-end glasses like the Zeiss Victory, or the Leica Trinovid (which I also own) outperform the Monarch - for almost 10 times the money.
Digital camera Review: Better Optics Make Better Birders. These Make You Better Summary: 5 Stars
After hinting for some time to my fiance, I was thrilled to receive these as a Christmas gift. I've used them over the past few weeks and have been thrilled with the quality of the optics. Scrutinizing some Bohemian Waxwings from 30 feet away revealed great detail and color richness. The adjustable locking eye cups are a great feature. The hard rubber exterior is strong and offers a good grip. The only negative review I have to offer is similar to others; the lens caps are cheap and are beneath the level of these fine binoculars. For the money I challenge anyone to find a better pair.
Digital camera Review: Bowhunter Approved Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this from Amazon and got a great price and read many reviews on the web. I received them 3 days after I ordered. It was in time for my deer hunting trip over a bean field in driving rain. They performed very well considering it was a hard rain for 3 hours. As stated in other reviews the rain guard caps do suck but it certainly wouldn't be a deal breaker for me. My eyes aren't as good as they use to be being just south of forty but I could easily see spike horns at 200 yards in the last hour of daylight so to me thats worth the price alone and ofcourse it can't fog up. It doesn't matter what magnification or how bright it is if they are fogged up.
Digital camera Review: Bright and sharp Summary: 4 Stars
These binoculars deliver very good performance for the price. Their size and weight are easy to hold and carry. The eye cups provide progressive, effective relief. Objective and eyepiece covers are funky, but work well when installed. The image is bright and well-aligned. Focus is very good, but suffers from a bit of spherical aberration across the field of vision. All together, the binoculars work well and are a pleasure to use.
Digital camera Review: Bright enough to see the birds! Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a novice birder who was growing frustrated with my compact Bushnells. They were cloudy and not bright enough to get a good look at birds in the woods. These Nikons are wonderful! Bright, nice-sized field of view, lightweight, comfortable in my hands, quick focusing. Now I can actually find the bird quickly in my binoculars and get a bright, clear view of it. I searched for a long time to find the right combination of price and performance. These aren't too pricey and, for me, work as well as the $1200+ Swarovskis I borrowed from a friend once.
