I do public science outreach (for disadvantaged elementary school students) in the field of astronomy. Binoculars are great for sharing with users who may never have used optics of any kind; they are simple and intuitive.

I purchased these not for sailing but rather for astronomy. These update the Porro prism 7x50s so popular in the last century with astronomers, carrying forward all of their virtues - generous eye relief, 7-degree or larger FOV, flat, well-corrected field edge to edge, bright 7mm exit pupil...

The need was for high powered, quality binoculars that could stand the rigors of being in the field including weather resistance and rough handling. The Nikon 7x50 Ocean Pro Binoculars well satisfies this need.

Fantastic but 7x50 is too low for me

Great product, certainly fits my needs

Love these, they look right, feel right and give a sharp view of the night sky. Not too heavy to handle as far as image stability is concerned.

The binoculars are a bit on the heavy side but this is a small trade in for the absolutely brilliant crystal clear optics. I am well pleased with my purchase.

These are a great pair of binoculars, offered at a great price due to a model update. They provide a Sharpe clear image and would be ideal for sailors, bird spotters and night gazing. I always associate Nikon with quality and I am not disappointed.

Outstanding binoculars which give very clear vision, especially at sea.

Have yet to use on the water but initial impression is that the product is consistent with what is advertised. Image is sharp Focus is smooth and easy Have not dunked in the water yet. I plan on using on inland water and general spotting.
