I bought these for novice bird watching and looking for seals and other marine mammals while exploring the puget sound. They are light weight and work wonderfully! The fact that they are waterproof is a bonus as I can take them kayaking or boating. I even can hold my phone up to the eye piece and get fairly decent pictures. If you are looking for more advanced identification of animals, you may want higher end, but for the price, these are great. Very happy with my purchase.

Nikon binocular / canteen
Kipnix11 years ago
I purchased a Nikon waterproof pair of binoculars and they fogged after being exposed to moisture. Nikon was less than pleasant when asked about their lenses and provided poor customer service. REI exchanged the binoculars without an issue. I would NOT recommend a Nikon product to anybody.

Like these!

I have had these for about a month and think that they are very good. The optics are surprisingly bright for a 25mm lens. The clarity is very good. The case is made of durable woven nylon and is padded. The neck strap won't fit in the case but that is OK because when the binoculars are folded and in the case the strap can be routed around the cover so it becomes a caring strap fore the case/binoculars. My only complaint is that the adjustment wheel developed about 20* of free play, which makes fine tuning the adjustment a little difficult. I had a pair of Busnell binoculars that had the same issue, so maybe this is common.

Small, light but not a winner
5 months ago
Bot these at REI for a trip to Antarctica. $99.95+tax. I lthough being a Nikon the lens would be superior but even tho they are small and relatively light the magnification is not great and it takes too long for the scroll button to clarify the visuals. The lens caps are not attached and I lost one within one day so I can't return them. I ended up buying an Occer 12x25 on Amazon for $29 using a 20% coupon, regular price was $35.95. They are somewhat larger but almost as light with larger more comfortable eye holes and much easier to use with far superior magnification. Doesn't seem like there should be such a difference, but there is.

Seeing Denali!

I’ve been a fan of Nikon optics since the early 70s and these binoculars do not disappoint! I needed something for an upcoming trip to Denali and purchased both the 10x25 and 8x25 binoculars. I wear eyeglasses (far-sighted and astigmatism) and these adjusted perfectly following the directions included. I can actually use them without my glasses! They fold up small enough for my daypack, the strap is strong, and the small case is well made, and has a belt loop on the back. My only concern are the eyecovers, which just push on and will likely stretch out over time. I chose the 10x25 because of the deeper focus, which will be useful while hiking in Denali, and returned the 8x25 with no problem.

fast, clear, and compact

The Nikon trailblazer binoculars are perfect for campers, hikers, hunters and any outdoor enthusiast. The Trailblazers are fast to focus and extremely clear. The binoculars feel like you are looking out of a DSLR camera. They are rugged binoculars and are capable of withstanding extreme weather. They fit in a soft container that is about the size of an apple. When the binoculars are not in use they fold fold down and are able to fit in a pocket. I highly recommend the Nikon Trailblazer to any outdoor enthusiast.

Follow-up from previous review
17 years ago
Just wanted to follow up from previous review. Went back to store and exchanged original pair. The eye cup was faulty. The lens cap is tight, would suggest leaving them off and being very careful removing the first time as to not pull the rubber eye cup off also. Second pair focus was somewhat better, not really an issure once used a little. You must be still while looking through these bonoculars due to the narrow field, any movement will cause unviewable shake, ie: no riding anything and using these. They are a great little and light weight bonocular for hiking. REI has a great write up on bonoculars power and field of view, read it before buying a pair so that you understand how each bonocular has it's own strengths.

What I was looking for.
12 years ago
When I use binocs, I don't usually scan a wide area looking for what I might find. Most often I'll spot something specific and want a closer look. With this in mind, I wanted as much magnification as I could get in a compact unit. The 10 x 25 does this. Because the magnification is so powerful and the binocs are so small, there is some shake but having the object up close is a trade off I'm willing to make.

A new world of sight - but loose eye cup issue
4 years ago
I'm delighted with these binoculars in every way---except one, which is why four stars instead of five: The only shortcoming is that the left eye cup doesn't stay in the fully extended position. Neither cup has adequate tension and they move a bit too easily. Just a small amount of pressure from holding them to my face causes the left one to retract---blurring my focus. This may be a defect in my particular set. As an aside, I'm very nearsighted yet can use most binoculars without glasses by adjusting focus (my nearsightedness means I can focus on objects several feet closer than specified, and not quite as far). I include this sidenote, as the write-ups for binoculars generally imply that glasses-wearers can't use the eye cups directly. But I expect most glasses-wearers would enjoy going glasses-free as I do.
