The 8-24x25 Sportstar Zoom Binoculars from Nikon deliver versatility and portability that easily fits in a pack, pocket, or purse. The wide 3x magnification range is well suited for medium- to long-range viewing and ideal for sightseeing and glassing on the trail or in the woods. Nikon's proprietary zoom lever, located behind the center focus wheel, is ergonomically placed to be accessible with either hand for easier use. Twist-up eyecups help to ensure a comfortable viewing distance for almost any viewer—even if they wear eyeglasses.
