Review on ๐Ÿ” Nikon 7237 Action 7x35 EX Extreme All-Terrain Binocular: Uncover Every Adventure by Sirirat Benjakalyani แ Œ

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best thing I have ever used, highly recommended!

If it is comfortable to observe from the hands, then magnifications of more than 7 times are contraindicated. At magnification up to about 8x, the jitter is not strongly felt and the deterioration of the image is not so critical. All magnifications above result in a loss of resolution due to image shaking. It is better to invest in better quality 7x35 or 8x42 binoculars with a light weight, wide field that does not shake when viewed without a tripod, than to get larger binoculars that will drag and require a tripod. However, these binoculars often have a wider field. Looking through the keyhole is also not very comfortable. A 5 mm pupil is also sufficient, since not all pupils reach 7 mm, this also requires complete darkness, etc. And with a 5mm eye pupil, only a 35mm aperture will be used in 7x50 binoculars. But you will have to carry heavier binoculars with you, less stable in your hands due to their size, with a smaller field of view at the same magnification, at least the same with Nikon. I chose Nikon Action EX 7x35. There is another 2 times cheaper model Nikon Aculon 7x35 (weight 685 g), but it is simpler than the Action EX 7x35 series (800 g) in terms of optics and build quality. Differences: Aculon does not have a moisture-proof dust-proof case, no nitrogen inside, smaller prisms than Action EX, smaller eye relief 11.8mm versus 17.3mm. With a large eye relief, it is more comfortable to look, you do not need to cuddle up to the eyepieces. The Action EX has a more durable metal case with reliable mechanics.

Pros
  • Wide field of view for 7 times, at 1000m - 163m (angular field of view visible 60 deg), and angular field of view real 9.3ยฐ. For example, the same 7x Nikon Action EX 7x50 at 1000 m - 112 m (visible angular field of view 42 g), and the real angular field of view is 6.4 ยฐ. Also of the advantages of Nikon EX is a waterproof case that can withstand immersion up to 1m for 5 minutes with protection against fogging and dust filled with nitrogen gas, multi-layer anti-reflection coating of lenses, BaK4 glass prisms, high image clarity and contrast, rubberized case, pupil removal 17.3 mm , the pupil diameter is 5 mm, which is quite enough.
Cons
  • The price is not small, but it is better to take high-quality binoculars than to be disappointed later in the Chinese misaligned Celestron with glare and sore eyes from it.

Very high-quality and reliable execution of the body with average, but quite decent optics.
