Nikon Sportstar EX 10x25DCF

Product Information

However, one potential limitation of this model is its reduced low-light performance, attributed to the smaller objective lens size of 25mm. Smaller objective lenses capture less light, which can impact image brightness, particularly in low-light conditions. The Verdict Features: Waterproof – Fogproof – 10x Magnification – 25mm Objective Lens Diameter – Wide Field OF Vision - 3.5mm Close Focusing Distance – Ergonomic Design – Dipotre Ring- Fold-Up Model – Eco Friendly. First let me emphasize (just in case I haven't been clear before) that my little comparison matrix is highly subjective. It takes away points for things I don't like (e.g. low eye relief) and gives points for having things I like (e.g. the "right" magnification - 10x) etc. Noone but me could really use it effectively as it only represents my personal preferences. It has however, been immensely helpful to me in making comparisons. There are many excellent full-sized porro-prism binoculars that adjust for very small interpupillary distances. My favorites are the Nikon 8x30 EII and the Nikon 8x32 Superior E.

Cameras – LCD screen is heavily worn either by de-lamination or has scratches to it. Rubber grips are starting to come away from the body.

These ergonomically designed binoculars are covered with rubber armour to give you the firmest grip possible, even in adverse weather. Not sure why you’d want to, but if you do choose to submerge the Nikon Sportstar EX binoculars( learn more here!) in 2m of water they’ll be fine for up to 5 minutes. The Nikon has.... Less waterproofing. Not nitrogen purged. And lessor hand feel. They are not as tough as the Bruntons...obviously. The Nikon is lighter at 10oz. And has a ridiculously low minimum IPD, due to its double hinge design, which also contributes to the Nikons being less rugged. Nikon also has twist up eyecups for those who bother with that at such tight eye relief. Nikons coatings beat the Bruntons hands down, leading to better brightness and contrast. Optically the Nikon is noticably better(probably due in large part to those nasty looking Emerald Fire coatings on the Bruntons objectives), which counts high on everyones list. They also beat the Bruntons for compactness, especially when folded for storage.Our used products are subject to wear and tear in comparison to brand new products. This also applies to accessories that are supplied with the camera including batteries which may have a lower optimum performance level/life expectancy. Bushnell Custom 7x26 - 7.92 (while optically fantastic, it takes hits for low magnification, poor twilight factor, and no waterproofing.)
