Nikon Binoculars

I have been an avid bird-watcher for almost 20 years and was reluctantly pushed into starting this blog by my grandson who has just started joining me on some of my excursions.

I don't know much about this stuff so please forgive me if it's not up to par.

I thought I would start by talking about my new pair of binoculars. My wife bought me a apir of Nikon eagleview binoculares for my 55th birthday, and they are the best pair that I have ever used.
They can zoom from 8x to 24x, and are relatively lightweight. I've got to say that at the 24x zoom the image gets a little shaky but that's probably mainly due to my old hands and not the binoculars.

I found a great review of the Nikon EagleView - You should really check it out, it's even got a video review.

Anyway this is far and away the best pair of binoculars I have ever used for birdwatching, now it may not be applicable to all people and all uses.

But I do highly reccomend it.

Well that will do for now, I might try to figure out how to upload photos soon.

Cheers

Oh by the way I'm having a play around with squidoo too, so check out my Nikon Binocular lens.
