A great bang-for-the-buck binocular, the Nikon 12x50 Action VII Binocular is a high-magnification, large-objective entry in Nikon's value-driven porro prism lineup. It features a bold, bright view where subjects are larger and cast against a very blurry background-great for thick tree cover. It is a sensible hunting or birding option for those who cannot approach their subjects and welcome carrying a bigger binocular in exchange for a bigger view.
The 12x50 Action VII's highly-refractive prisms, combined with the aspherical eyepiece design and 12x magnification, yield a 5.5° true field of view with a wide 66° apparent field as well. The Action VII has multicoated objectives, protective rubber armor, and conventional peel-down style rubber eyecups
