Brighten your perspective with the compact Nikon Prostaff P3 8 x 42 binoculars. They have a bright and wide field of view that reveals more of the scene and is easy to hold steady.
- Full-size 42 mm front objectives gather more light across the wide field of view—377 ft. at 1,000 yards—even as the daylight is fading
- Waterproof, fogproof and drop-resistant design
- Multilayer lens coatings cut glare and reflection for sharper, clearer views
- Highly reflective silver-alloy coating is applied on the mirror surfaces of the prism so more of the visible spectrum reaches your eyes
- Waterproof down to 3.3 ft. in case of mishaps at the water's edge or if you're caught in inclement weather (not intended for underwater use)
- The glass used is lead- and arsenic-free
- Turn and slide the retractable eyecups for use with eyeglasses; extend them to your ideal position for comfortable naked-eye viewing
- 20.2 mm of eye relief ensures everyone can find a clear, comfortable viewing position, with or without eyeglasses
- Lightweight body uses strong fiberglass-reinforced polycarbonate resin
- Dark green rubber-armored body provides nonslip grip and protection from the occasional drop or bump

good 1st binos
Yes , I recommend this product
These are my 1st binos, so I don't know what to compare them to, other than a Vortex monocular that was awful. Excellent eye relief for those of us with thick glasses. Easy to focus and comfortable to hold. You will see yellow-greenish halos, but I knew to expect that from reviews I read. I don't like the eyepiece covers, too easy to lose someday. REI shipped these to me in a large plastic bag, not a box with cushioning! That's inexcusable! Overall they seem like decent binos for the price if REI doesn't damage them by shipping them in a plastic bag! Does not come with a microfiber cleaning cloth, so don't forget to get one.

Disappointed after 3 trips to the store
No, I do not recommend this product
First trip was to explore binoculars to determine if any would suffice. Second was to get help working the pair ordered which was frustrating. Third trip was to return the pair after further trials. They must work, just not for me. Hard to focus, bit heavy and bigger than anticipated.

Great Beginner Binoculars
Yes , I recommend this product
I haven't used many binoculars before, so don't have much to compare to, but these work very well and they've been easy to use so far. No issue using with glasses. Seems to be cheaper other places, but purchased on sale.
