Amazing stabilization but a little heavy.

The binoculars are perfect for plane spotting. The only slight complaint is the weight. Specification says 2.71 lbs but they become quite heavy after a few minutes. Feels much heavier than 2.71 lbs. The stabilization is amazing.

Nikon Stableye binos. Pricy but very good.

Bought these to use on a eclipse trip years ago. They are a bit heavy, but work so very well. Re battery problem. Don't leave batteries in them for long periods.

Bright stable images, high magnification

We hunt in western Colorado and Wyoming, among other uses. There is one word for this product- totally cool- oh, that is two words because they are that good. Perfect, crisp optics, easy adjustment and the ability to pick out items easily missed with other units. Stabilization enables rapid observation of an area, allowing certainty of what is there to be seen. They are fairly large and heavy, so only appropriate for truck or a pack if you choose to carry them. I suspect the complaint in another review that the battery compartment corroded resulted from leaving the batteries in the compartment. The factory Toshiba batteries had leaked and corroded in the unopened package- never installed. I suggest using a good brand of battery, and removing them upon extended storage- per the instuctions provided. I love this product.

Truly Stable at 40X

Fantastic optical stability system. Both on land where it precisely controls hand held jitter, and at sea where it controls jitter and a separate system compensates for vessel motion.

Rock Steady Stability at 40X

It's a Nikon, and lives up to their reputation for ease of use, ruggedness, and clear bright images. Stability system provides rock steady images on land AND at sea! I used it, at sea, in Alaska. It compensated for boat motion and hand motion. Highly recommended.

An image stabilizing binocular, designed specifically to give hunters, outdoor enthusiasts and law enforcement personnel an ultra steady view, no matter what the conditions. Nikon's StabilEyes is a 12x32 roof prism binocular that eliminates the effect of common sources of vibration.

The heart of Nikon's StabilEyes is a battery powered system of gimbaled servos that are actuated when the unit is powered up. Unlike many other stabilized products, StabilEyes is optimized as a binocular. It is a roof prism design that incorporates precisely cut and polished lenses and prisms.

All optical glass elements are treated with multiple layers of anti-reflective compounds for true color rendition, superior detail resolution, and maximum light transmission. Additionally, prisms are phase correction coated for the utmost in sharpness and clarity. A special "VR Pause" mode keeps the image stabilized for long periods of time and is very useful for long term viewing.

The Nikon StabilEyes is a central focus design with an adjustable diopter. It has an exit pupil of 2.7mm, a 60 degree apparent angle of view, and a field of view of 261' at 1,000 yards. Eye relief is 15mm, very long in consideration of its 12 power magnification, and it is fully waterproof, fogproof and shockproof.

StabilEyes measures 7.0" x 5.6" x 3.1" and weighs 38.8 ounces without batteries. It is ergonomically designed with a han d strap and integral finger grooves to reduce user fatigue and aid in operation. StabilEyes is powered by four AA batteries and has a battery power display that blinks when battery power is getting low.
