Review Summary

Pro: economical; zoom kinda works Cons: many Highly unstable at the lowest zoom setting. Keep having to mess with the eye piece to get some kind of image. Not really "user error" as a similarly-cost Bushnell unit fared much better. Cheap-ish plastic lens cap/protector that breaks when you don't even put force on it. It's bad...

These were much better than I expected. Not as good as expensive Nikon binoculars but much better than the price would indicate. Very clear and easy to focus. I'm pleased with my purchase and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone wanting good multi purpose binoculars without spending a fortune. These are not as shaky when zoomed as my last pair of zoom binoculars but, when on 24 I still need to stabilize them by leaning on something stationary. I can use the zoom more easily than I expected. They are light weight and easy to carry. I use them mostly for watching birds and wildlife. They are small and easy to keep close at hand.

Just moving to the east coast I wanted something to watch the boats and lighthouses. I didn't want to be bogged down with a large one so this model is great to tuck in my purse or a small backpack. The adjustments are pretty simple to use to get the view just right and I live the color!

These are very compact and easy to use. The clarity is fantastic and picture quality is amazing. We took these to Alaska and could see glaciers for what seemed to be miles away right in front of us.

The is a nicely designed pair of binoculars. My only complaint would be that the lens covers will not stay on. They fit too loosely.

These binoculars are not exactly tiny, but small enough to throw in a bag while traveling. The eye cups pop out and adjust for comfort. They are light, which makes hand-holding somewhat difficult at 24x. The throw of the focus ring is large, making it easy to use. The zoom handle is a bit odd but very smooth.

Out of the box the focus wheel would not turn far enough to bring anything into focus. Three of us tried. The wheel did not seem to turn very far so I used some exsesive force... and snap! But after that it works flawlessly!!!! Focust is perfect and works well at all zooms. Optics are better than expected and very bright even at 9pm very pleased

Great small binoculars

Nikon's ACULON T11 Zoom 8-24x25 is a portable, pocket-sized binocular that is now available in two new and fun colors: white and blue. The diminutive frame of the ACULON T11, combined with Nikon's legendary optics, makes this binocular an extremely versatile option that can be used in a wide range of activities or simply stored within arm's reach.
This binocular is made with high index BaK4 prisms and bright, multicoated optics with multiple layers of anti-reflective compounds to provide excellent brightness and resolution. It features a 25mm objective diameter and a 3-time zoom capability that allows users to zoom to 24-power for a close-in view. A unique, centrally located zoom control lever enables the user to change magnification power with the push of a finger.
The ACULON T11 Zoom measures 4.8" x 4.3" and weighs only 10.8 ounces. It fits neatly in a coat pocket, purse or glove box. Its sleek ergonomic styling allows a better, more comfortable grip on the dual-hinge polycarbonate body. Along with the new white and blue models, the ACULON T11 also is available in red and black.
