Nikon's Action Extreme series offer lots of features that will be appreciated by those who enjoy the view provided by classically-styled porro prism units. Following the enormously popular Action series, Nikon has made significant improvements. The group still retains the high-refraction prisms with their wide viewing fields, and every model has a tripod adapter threading for easy extended glassing from a stationary position(requires an optional tripod adapter #7650).
All of Nikon's binocular line is backed up by the "No-Fault" 25-year warranty. Regardless of what happens to your binoculars-even of your own negligence-Nikon will repair or replace (at their option) your binocular for just $10 plus the return shipping costs.
Note! Covered by Nikon's 25-year no-fault repair/replacement policy

Comments about Nikon 7x35 Action EX Extreme ATB Binocular:
I purchased these Action extreme ATB binoculars for bird watching. With the quick easy center focus they are ready to use any time. Light weight with an excellent field of view. I like the idea they are water proof an fog free as well. The click/turn feature of the eye pieces are a nice feature if I choose to use them when wearing my glasses.
Great value and perfect for my application. Would recommend them to a friend any day!

Comments about Nikon 7x35 Action EX Extreme ATB Binocular:
Got 2 pairs of these in December prior to a cruise to Central/South America and they were perfect. Very compact for carrying around & simple to use. This is my first pair of binoculars and these exceeded in every category. They feel sturdy and rugged and worked great with or without glasses.
There was one scary moment where the focus lens seemed to get stuck in one of the pairs, but we were at altitude and in the sulfur cloud of a volcano at the time (which was awesome!). Later that day when we took them out it was working fine and continued to for the rest of the trip.

Comments about Nikon 7x35 Action EX Extreme ATB Binocular:
I bought these to watch the college football games. This Nikon Binocular was perfect for watching the two hometown rivals. I could see nearly the whole offensive line from my seat - having the wide angle view makes all the difference. On a cloudy rainy day this is plenty bright. The one minor draw back is they are a bit heavy. Also the strap is not all the comfortable so consider an after market neoprene type.

We needed a reasonably priced binocular to take on our Alaskan cruise.

How happy we were with the clarity and ease of use we had with these binoculars!
Great...just GREAT!

I love these binoculars. They're great for sporting events. I like them so much, I am thinking about buying a second pair for my son and/or daughter who travel with me to college football games. They're easy to use and have a very wide field of vision, that's why they work so well for outdoor sporting venues. I love them! B&H had the best pricing I could find as well. You can't go wrong ... with B&H's pricing [...] and the Nikon name ... who could ask for anything more?

Comments about Nikon 7x35 Action EX Extreme ATB Binocular:
I was looking for binoculars for bird watching in our backyard that were not too expensive. Most general reviews recommend pricier binoculars, but reading through reviews of the Nikon Action EX series binoculars made me try this one. I am very happy with these, they deliver a very sharp image overall with no color fringes. There's a slight fall off of focus, but only noticeable at the very edge of the field of view, so it does not distract from the otherwise great image quality. These have an outstanding field of view which makes them very useful for birdwatching. The close-focusing distance also means that they can be used to watch bird feeders just outside the window. The binoculars have a solid feel. Only quirk are the front lens covers, that don't go on easy and are separate (but I only use them when I store the binoculars). In the end, considering the price, this is an excellent buy!

I am a walking hunter (nastier and rainier the better) These have great optics and are clear. Easy to adjust and handle. I wish there were an easier lens cap design out there for under $100. There ain't. A bit heavy, but that's better than a bit blurry or a bit too dark.

Comments about Nikon 7x35 Action EX Extreme ATB Binocular:
Nikon has a well-deserved reputation for quality optics and the 7x35 Action Extremes do nothing to detract from it.
These are sturdy, well-built binoculars with the advantages of being waterproof as well as fogproof. Their greatest strength also leads to their greatness weakness, though. The very wide field of view (9.3 degrees) gives an open, panoramic vista unavailable through most binoculars. But in optics, there are so many compromises and in this case it means these binos have some softness on the edges. The "sweet spot" in the center is large enough that this softness doesn't concern me and may not even be noticable to many users. Otherwise, the image is bright and clear and very fine for daytime use outdoors or for watching sporting events at a well-lit venue.
