Nikon 7430 Monarch 8 X 42mm All Terrain Binoculars

Lightweight. Lens caps are attached. Great for bird watching. Good in dim conditions. Fantastic value for money.

Just what I expected from Nikon. As a retired professional photographer, I used Nikon equipment for years. I found their products to be very well made and reliable. These glasses for their size are very light, which makes them great for hiking. As a long term investment, in a good binocular, the money is well spent.

Terrific optics, for the price, and works great with glasses. Only shortfall is the eyepiece cover, which is easy to lose --- which I already have --- even after it is attached, as designed, to the strap.

Impressed with optics for the price. Clear view and easy to use with glasses as noted in other reviews.

I bought these to use on our African safari after reading many positive reviews. I noticed that our Safari Guide also used the Monarch ATBs - and no wonder - these binoculars are fantastic! You really noticed the difference in low-light conditions (dawn and dusk) and with these we were really able to spot all of the wildlife- from elephants to birds. We even put my camera up against the lenses and were able to use the binocs as a kind of passable "zoom" lens for photographs. Buy them - they are worth every cent!
