Nikon - PROSTAFF P3 8X42 Waterproof Binoculars - Green

I read an article about vision adjustments as we age. It said we (I’m 68) need to use binoculars with a ratio of 5, if possible. 5? Yes. Take the magnification #, in this case 8, and divid it into the field of view, in this case 42. 42 divided by 8 = 5.25. These binoculars would be good for an older person. I bought these binoculars for my wife as a present before a trip and she loved them. Everything was crisp and clear. The images combined correctly as she moved the halves in and out. The coatings on the lens worked. The binoculars are light weight and not overly large. They feel good in her hands. I recommend these to everyone.

Great entry level binoculars. Good value and good quality. Perfect for sporting events or bird watching.

Nice clear bright optics. What else would you expect from Nikon? The focus ring is fast and easily adjustable. The eye relief cups give these binoculars a true "one size fits all" product. My only complaint and the reason for 4 stars is that the lens caps are terrible and fall off easily.
