I learned on a Nikon FM camera and have shot a bunch of Nikon digital cameras. Nikon has been making binoculars since WWI. The Nikon Z9 is a beast of a camera and competes with RED for video capabilities. If you don't like the gold and black, you could sand off the Gold on the logos, mask it, and paint it like you would a rifle.
My qualifier is Crystal Clear vision. I would of liked to see actual footage recorded as seen through the binoculars, that would be a deciding factor for me. But thanks for the good words. I'm nearly convinced. But I need to see the footage before making my final decision.
i have these 10-12x mag they are good... but beyond that i find the balance needs re-adjusting.... good for the money though and nice to have the extra 22 x should you need it
Thank you for sharing this! My dad passed away and I was left with a pair of these binoculars. I'm guessing these are about 10-15 years old, but my dad never used them and they've been stored (inside) for the last 6 years. Anyway, I don't know how to use binoculars. I didn't know about that zoom slide or distance adjustments! Now I just need to do some research on how to clean the lenses. 👀
Sorry about your dad! Cleaning lenses is simple, best to get a photography cleaning kit. Use bulb brush to blow dust off lenses, then use brush to get any remaining dirt or dust off, and then blow again. do not ever wipe optical glass with dirt or dust on it. you will be good to go
I use these at 20x for 100 yards, no problems for 270 on up. 223 can be hard to see depending on target style. past 100 yard may need a spotting scope depending on caliber -Simon
Olá. Tenho uns Celestron Skymaster 15×70. Também tenho Levenhuk Sherman Base 12×50. Estou a pensar comprar uns Pentax Júpiter 16×50 em breve. Ou então penso numa melhor opção: Celestron Skymaster 25×70. É uma boa compra ??? Qual a sua opinião ??? 🤔🧐🙄🥸
Too bad Nikon's are disposable throw away items after break since they only have really a short 2 or 7 year limited warranty. They screwed over a lot of loyal long time riflescope customers of theirs by no longer honoring their previous lifetime warranty. Must be in the hundreds of thousands if not millions of their customers got screwed over by Nikon.

Good idea, I just re-up with black sharpie every season!

That's a great idea. At this point I have some untold number of hours actually glassing with these and been really happy.

Thanks for your review … it was exactly what I was looking for
Appreciate it Miguel!

I bought the same binoculars from Bass Pro back in 2009. The best glass I've ever used bar none.
I love 'em! And I've put some serious time looking through them over the years

I pretty much cycle between wide and all the way in, and am able to adjust pretty quickly on the fly after a few seasons

@@LakeHubTV Thank you so much! 🤗 I will definitely get a photography cleaning kit and a bulb.
the aculon series seems to be the best price performance binocular line
a lot of companies make more expensive sets that are not as well reviewed
Nikon Aculon are great too, I was specifically looking for more zoom power than my scope, but for around $100 those are great too!
Love the nikon gold
Me too! -S
I need a pair to see my target at shoots between 100 and 500 yards. These may be it.

Can't speak to that model, but I am a fan of the 50mm reticle!

@@LakeHubTV Pentax Júpiter 16×50 vs Nikon Aculon a 211 16×50. ??? 🤔🧐🙄🥸🥸
This product is already archived or discontinued and maybe replaced by aculon 10-22x50 . At least thats what vailable in my country
That is correct!
@@LakeHubTV is it not about 10-22x50 already?
@@LakeHubTV is aculon as good as action?
It's actually "trigonometry"
above my paygrade!

That's too bad! I've been using these for a decade. Vortex on the boomstick, they have a pretty dang good warranty. -Simon
@@LakeHubTV Bushnell is also known to screw over their customers over lifetime warranty denials that's why they have an F rating according to the BBB.
