I was looking for a basic pair of binoculars for our everyday use. I have some really expensive Leupold binoclulars that are my favorite, but for all around family use, especially with the kids, this is a great option.

They are waterproof, rubber coated for protection, powerful (10x), and the focus is easily adjustable. For the money? It’s a great buy.

great product for trip to Glacier National Park. Great eye relief, I wear glasses and my wife does not. Great range of eye adjustment, our corrected vision is vastly different. Easy to focus. We would recommend.

These binoculars are mostly just like the old Nikon Monarchs, with maybe just a little more light in low light conditions. An excellent pair of binoculars for the price, five years ago binoculars of this quality would have been more like $500-600. An especially cool feature of all the Nikon Monarchs is the close focus distance, which with my eyes is probably even a little under four feet. If you like looking at butterflies and dragonflies as well as birds, these binoculars are an excellent choice for their price tag.

I purchased these based on the performance review from Cornell. I am thouroughly pleased and actually purchased a second pair for my wife.

The low light performance of these was more than adequate for our birding needs in early morning or late evening. The brightness is astonishing compared to a binocular of lesser quality. I will never go back to a cheap bino. These have helped tremendously bringing our birding experience to the next level. They offer a superb level of contrast and sharpness required for bird identification. I can easily see markings on a sparrow at 50 feet or more in low light. The eye relief is great and having retractable eyecups even works well with eyeglasses. These binos are mean to be used heavily, just about bulletproof in most conditions.

I would advise people to change out the neckstrap with a harness. My neck never hurts and they don’t swing with a harness, the Leupold is excellent. If you are a birder and want to make a good experience and great one, pull the trigger on these. I really think would will be pleased.

As for the 8 x 42 or 10 x 42 debate… If you need low light performance and are watching moving targets such as small birds or the like I feel the 8 x 42’s are the way to go. If you have bright conditions,very steady hands and a still target the 10 x 42 is worth looking at. Try out a pair of each magnification at your local sporting goods store if possible and you decide.

I experienced the same annoyances that reviewers gave for these binoculars: eye cup covers are loose and the lens covers could be designed better. But the functionality of the binoculars is as great as given by thses reviewers.NIKON 7294 Monarch ATB 8×42 Binocular

After deliberating very long on what to buy, I decided to buy the Nikon 7294. It is really a great optical piece and I use it very often with great satisfaction. The only alternative to this in my mind will be the Canon electronically stabilized binocular. I wanted to stay with a non powered binocular so at this time I am waiting for the reliability of the electronic stabilized binoculars to improve.
