Review on Nikon ACULON 10 22X50 Binoculars Harness by Vinay Kumar ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product, best quality.

Again, compared to the BPC5 8x30, the picture is much brighter. By the way, on x22 nothing is shaking for me. Maybe someone's hands are not from that, sorry, the places are growing? An adapter for a tripod (NIKON TRA-2, which came with the binoculars) will not be superfluous - it's more solid. True, I have not yet understood the weight distribution (center of gravity) - on a tripod it falls back a little and the fastening of the adapter itself to the binoculars is not tightened "tightly".

Pros
  • Variable multiplicity: at x10 you look for an object, at x22 you study it in detail. If there was a constant, for example 16x50, I think it would be worse to use ("catch" the object).
Cons
  • 1. Compared to my ancient BPC5 8x30 a little narrower field of view, but this is an expected disadvantage, which was known before buying this model, in favor of the advantages in the form of ZOOM. 2. The protective caps of the entrance eyepieces would be better made according to the principle, as in the Yukon, because attaching them to the strap - then the binoculars around the neck have to be carried upside down. When removing these caps, they strive to get lost, because. the ear on them is split - it would be better if they made a whole one. 3. The protective cap of the output eyepieces also constantly flies off from the tension of the neck strap when carried by the strap or around the neck (the strap is fixed according to the instructions !). 4. The focus wheel is far from where it is best to hold the binoculars. Adapted - it is more convenient to twist it from below with the thumb of the hand, taking the binoculars, so that there is a neutral weight distribution. 5. Not all body is made of metal. "Yoke", i. E. the moving part of the binoculars, on which the eyepieces stand, is made of plastic and bends a little, i. E. the precision of the optical system is questionable.

Pros below: Matte body, pleasant to hold, non-slip. The holster is tight. Different cons: There is no strap to carry in your bag. Velcro is a little unreliable. There are no separate mounts or straps for lens plugs, inconvenient.
