Nikon 10x50 Action Extreme ATB Binocular

Purchased these binoculars primarily for binocular astronomy. Did a number observations of nebulas, open and globular clusters and Jupiter moons and can say that Nikon Action Extreme 10x50 is arguably the best value for money if you are considering binoculars for astronomy.

These are sort of the 'workhorse' of glasses, they work well as an all-purpose pair of binoculars. I highly recommend these glasses.

  I'd like a 'flipper focus' mechanism better.

I am very happy with these. I spent a lot of time researching binocs. Looked at other manufacturers and other magnifications. Decided to try these. We already had a pair of 12x50 that my husband liked. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to keep the 12s from shaking. So decided on the 10s. Glad I did.

These binoculars are excellent with a nice bright clear image. I was blown away after getting these set up for my eyesight then viewing something for the first time through them. Every time I use them I am amazed at the view through them.

A lifetime adherent of Nikon optics for photography, binoculars and rifle scopes, i chose Nikon for a powerful field binocular to augment my sportview that i use at football games. These are powerful scopes, lightweight, durable, and very bright even in low light.

This is the third pair of these we have added to our family. Living on the Gulf Coast the Nikon 10x50 Action is the best ever. We have used many other brands, nothing comes close to the fine optics, the weight, and durability of this pair of binoculars.

Great all-round fairly large hand-held (or tripod) binoculars, even for astronomy.

• +

  Sharp bright image, wide field of view. Good for day, night, or astronomy.

• -

  Somewhat heavy (like most 10x50s); maybe fragile. Odd case and lens caps.

Use this for stargazing and birding. Very bright and sharp. Good value.

This binocular sits at a great price vs quality point. It's great for terrestrial use, even in low light conditions, and for amateur astronomy.

  Reasonable price for quality terrestrial and astronomical binocular. Quality optics.

• -

  Inconvenient lens caps. No shoulder strap for case.
