Product Description
Are you ready for action? Nikon's 8x40 Action series binoculars are an excellent all-around choice. Their high magnification and wide field of view give you a clear, detailed look at faraway objects. And because they feature quality Nikon optics, they're an exceptional value, too. WP means Wide Perspective which means that at 1000 yards, you'll see a 430 feet wide field of view, nearly 60% more than other 8x binoculars. These binoculars were designed to deliver bright, distortion-free images. Precision-aligned, multi-coated lenses and anti-reflective internal surfaces minimize light loss. Eyeglass wearers can better appreciate the view, as well, thanks to the folding rubber eye cups. The Extreme feature is significant because it means that the Action 8x40 can be used under extreme weather conditions. It is nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed for total waterproof, fogproof and shockproof capability. A non-slip, rubberized exterior makes for an easy and secure grip. Nikon's rugged, high-quality construction is even backed by a 25-year warranty to ensure long-lasting performance. Don't just think about getting these. Take action! Field-of-View (@ 1000 Yds) - 431' (143 m at 1000 m) Minimum Focus Distance - 16.4' (5.0 m) Exit Pupil Diameter - 5.0mm Eye Relief - 17mm Relative Brightness - 25.0 Twilight Factor - 17.9 Center Focus Control Waterproof & Fogproof Tripod adaptable Unit Dimensions - 5.6 x 6.8 (141 x 173mm) WxH / Weight - 1.88 lb (855 g) Nikon USA 25-Year Mimited Warranty

 Good value for bird watching September 24, 2008
Having been pretty satisfied with the 10x50 version of this product, I decided to try the 8x40 version. I use them for bird watching and find they give a good clear image. Good value for the price.
Nikon binoculars September 15, 2008
I ordered these binoculars as a hoped-for improvement to a pair of $100 binoculars I have used several years for birding. These are absolutely the best value I could expect for the dollar spent. They are easy to grasp, easy to use with glasses, as well as being sharp and clear. I could not ask for better and would recommend them to anyone needing binoculars for moderate use.
Friends fight over them September 3, 2008
For the money hard to beat. You can spend a lot more and buy better, but these are all I need. They are fairly good size, not your little pocket lookers.You will look very strange if you bust these our at the opera.
First time I use them was in a VIP Suite at at a football game and everyone ended up fighting over who got to use the binoculars next...Even those poeple who brought their own binoculars. They were a hit.
Spectacular deal for the optics July 28, 2008

Very impressed with the quality of this product. Easy to use, a pleasure to view the surrounding environment. Recommend for day hikes, hunting, sports events, birdwatching, or whatever you fancy viewing. Not too cumbersome, portability is not hard labor, compared to heavier models out there. Optics are fantastic- (what else do you expect from Nikon) Thank you for a good product.

After a little searching i found these at a sporting goods chain and instantly knew this is what i wanted. They are a perfect size and i was shocked when i looked through them at how clear everything was. I wanted something to fit in my briefcase or laptop bag for easy transport and powerful enough for work. Working on the water i also wanted them to be waterproof and for the price i think that these are perfect. They look and feel great and so far i love them. I also love the warranty of 25 yrs. Working on boats i have used many different types of binoculars and i find these to be much better quality than some of the much higher priced models i have used. Amazon easily beat the chain store price. If you are looking for a good quality pair of binoculars for a great price this is it.
