I did a lot of research before buying these binoculars. Unfortunately, I should've compared WEIGHT of different options. Bought these for concert-going, but they are way too heavy to lug to a concert! Really wish I'd have gotten lightweight binoculars, with the same viewing capability. Didn't return them right away, so now I'd lose money if I exchanged them. :/
Make sure you check weight, if it's important to you!

Nice binoculars - the only pick I had with these is they seem a bit too bulky but I'm used to the little fold up models so it may just be me. The optics are nice and clear.

I was influenced by the Amazon reviews in my purchase of this fine binocular, and I could not be more pleased. Let me first address the quality. I have been a photographic hobbyist for over fifty years and I own several of Canon's finest lens, including the "L" series, so I believe I am qualified to critique the optical quality of this Nikon. They are excellent, and I would simply ignore anything said different.
I wear progressive bifocal glasses and I have no problem with the Nikon 7238, and neither does my wife. The adjustable eye cups are very nice. It is easy to adjust the binocular for our individual use. Just close your right eye, adjust the binocular until it is sharp to the left eye. Then close the left eye, and adjust the right diopter until the right lens is sharp, and that's it. Takes longer to type this than to actually do it once you have done it a couple of times.
We watch birds on our feeder about fifty feet from our back sliding glass door, and the 7238 is a terrific improvement over the cheap binocular we have had for years. We have 22 acres in the country just a bit east of Atlanta, and the 7238 is great for watching for ATF when I go back to tend the still. Charlie Elliott Wildlife Center is about 2 miles from us as the crow flies, and we are looking forward to visiting there and bird watching now that Spring is here.
One thing about purchasing from Amazon is their return policy. If for some weird reason you were not happy with the 7238, they have a no hassle return policy. Frankly I don't know how they do it, its abused pretty often.

I'm replacing a mid-range pair from another major manufacturer. Absolutely no comparison! And the price from Amazon made this binocular a real bargain. Thank you.

Ordered these binoculars primarily to watch wildlife and am disappointed with the optics quality. I only have my late grandfather's Berkut-7 Soviet made binoculars to compare this Nikon to, so maybe the quality of Nikon is OK for the price. But I really expected Nikon to be superior optics-wise than a pair of dusty twenty-something year-old binoculars I disassembled and re-assembled when I was a child, scratching the coating and leaving my fingerprints in a few places, as well as couple of chips at the edge of the lens. Those old binoculars give a crisper image with almost no chromatic aberration, while Nikon's picture looks noticeably more blurry in high contrast areas, like edges of buildings on sky background, text on road ads far ahead, birds on snow, etc. The Nikon's picture is a bit brighter though (due to bigger objective diameter and superior/intact coating), the finish is definitely better and it's waterproof. I wish Nikon was lighter though and its eyepieces softer.

Overall, it's a good pair of binoculars (but not great), it's just that it didn't meet my expectations. Knowing this I would look at more expensive series from Nikon or other manufacturers or wouldn't buy anything at all.
