Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I chose these because of the specs and my general trust of Nikon products. For me, 10x is the best magnification. Not too shaky at all and more fun than the usual 8x.
The ProStaffs are very well made with smooth and solid mechanical action. They are very comfortable for eyeglass wearers, although I still prefer to take mine off.
The 10Xs are very sharp and focus pretty closely. Looking at objects that are only a few feet away is interesting. Bear in mind, though, that they are no substitute for a giant tv as I have tried that. I also like the very contrasty 3-D look where objects at different distances really stand out from each other.
The following is hard to describe: Some scenes, especially waves and other watery features, look better through the ProStaffs than when viewed by eye alone. My wife aptly describes this as "better than real life".
This effect is seen in the rendition of colors and pleasant sort of a smooth and contrasty sharpness. Perhaps the various types of lenses and coatings employed may impart some polarization effect and also filter out the evil rays that detract from our normal viewing pleasure. The effect is not cartoonish or unnatural at all, just very nice.
This review may read like that of a young and overly imaginative ad executive, but let me assure you that I am not young and some of my other reviews are pretty harsh.
It would be fun to compare these long term with a pair of really expensive binoculars to see if my observations might apply to most modern designs. So, if somebody will send me a pair of, oh, Leicas, I promise a comparison review.
Finally, I spent a little time trying to find out what "eco-lenses" really are, but it is evidently a secret. Same goes for "ProStaff". Either a professional stick or excellent employees. Or something else not appropriate here.
