Review on Nikon 7245 Action EX Extreme All-Terrain 10x50 Binoculars by Andrea Sloan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nikon Action Extreme 10x50

The Nikon Action Extreme 10x50 is a great pair of binoculars that provide exceptionally clear images early in the night. I was quite confused comparing the Edge Case to one of my telescopes that had a 60mm lens and surprisingly the edge is much sharper but when you think about it binoculars with a 50mm lens actually yields a 100mm lens because your eyes see 2 x 50mm and your brain combines the picture and that's why binoculars are so much better than telescopes and most people don't see the same thing with both eyes and when you check your eyes each can have different indicators. These binoculars become heavy and tiring for bird watching. I would recommend having 3 or at least 2 binoculars if you plan to use it for travel or birding and astronomy, nikon t11 8-16-24x25 or pentax 8-16x21 for birding and travel, as for astronomy I would now Use 10x50 Extreme Action and work up to 16x80, not necessarily Nikon. The reason I don't go above 16 is because the higher I go the less sky I can see, going higher I get an expensive 20x100.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Not bad
