Customer Rating:
Summary: I love it
Comment: Good binocular. This is my first binocular, so I have no knowledge for any comment. Anyway, I am satisfied with it's quality
Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent quality
Comment: This is one of the cool product by Nikon. I just got it today and tested it by looking at moon and the experience is wonderfull. The soft touch and moderate weight has added advantage of this product. Overall quality is good except the field of view is little bit smaller but it doesn't make difference.
The package doesn't include the Tripod adapter which I have to buy it saperately.
Overall quality is good with this price.
Warnning. Dont buy more than 10X magnification, You will not be able to see without shakking. I suggest use Tripod if you go for more than 10x magnification.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent with some shortcomings
Comment: Very nice binoculars. Works perfect.
Now for shortcomings - the removable caps could have a better and more reliable placeholders, and they could be designed in a way that it's easier to remove and attach them from somewhere instead of hanging them on the strap.
12x50 might be slightly too magnified. The magnification is great, it's a human inability to hold it very steady making the viewing less than pleasurable. In retrospect, I could have compromised on magnification and instead picked a 8x. Might have been a better choice. It's totally usable though and magnification has its own benefits. No regrets.
The build quality feels very solid. Excellent equipment.

Summary: Great deal
Comment: I am not an expert in optics (digital cameras, binoculars, etc) but I can make the difference between good quality and not so good quality. I believe that the Nikon Action 16x50 binoculars fit, by far, in the first category. I was still not sure if I made the right decision when I purchased these, since I red several cons along the multitude of pros. Some of them were shaky image (due to the high zoom), pretty heavy for long periods of watching. All I can say now is that they are true, but these things fade by far in comparison to what this baby has to offer. Namely stunning crystal clear and sharp image (even at the edges), extremely rugged and ergonomic construction, fogproof and waterproof.
All in all, I would give it 10 out of 10 in a heartbeat.

The new Nikon Action Extreme binoculars feature an all-metal chassis with lens fittings housed in a tough, lightweight polycarbonate body shell. Like all Nikon All Terrain Binoculars, the EX is nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed for total waterproof, fogproof and shockproof performance in any environment. The binocular bodies are ergonomically shaped, tripod adaptable and are rubber coated for a non-slip grip, whether wet or dry. The new Extreme ATB offerings utilize high-resolution lenses and prism systems crafted from Nikons exclusive Eco Glass, which is made without the use of arsenic or lead. This lens system provides an extremely clear, distortion-free image over the entire field of view. The lens elements each incorporate multi-layered anti-reflective coatings formulated to deliver optimum brightness, high contrast, true color rendition and flare-free viewing in most lighting conditions. The Extreme series binoculars each feature a unique, click-stop eyecup design that not only delivers long eye relief, but also allows for variable eye relief that is customizable to the users own eyes and eyeglasses. The binoculars are central focus with a diopter control to correct for normal right/left eye vision imbalance. The Extreme ATBs all feature Apparent Angles of view that exceed 65 degrees, making them true Wide Angle binoculars.
