Yes, and they're spectacular.
I'd buy them on a great sale, otherwise, I'd buy Swaros in the same price range.
Nikon EDG's are fantastic.

I have them as well as swaro slc neus, leica trinovids in 8x, 10x and 12x. I have offed the  leicas as the nikons are the bomb. they run with anything alpha today. the armor is lame, that aside they can replace anything as the reference standard.

if you bought them from a authorized dealer you can get a nikon d3000 camera for free by filling out the rebate paper......the cameras can be offed on ebay for 450bux.....that make some serious good buy syndrome.

warning.....do not trust the obj covers, they tend to slip off, and the armor is lame.....those issues aside, I would bet you will not look through anything better.

congrats... 8X32 is such a friendly size.  That's what I carry.
That camera promo rocks!
If you get it and don't want it, my bro in law might.

Hey guys,

If you're interested in EDG bino's there's a deal on Camofire today for either the 8x32's or 10x32's for $899, and the kicker is that you get a free nikon D3000 digital SLR camera thrown in the deal.......normal retail price for the bino's alone is $1799 and the camera retails for $549.  Seems like a smoking deal.

I'm thinking about pulling the trigger myself, just trying to figure out how I'm going to explain it to the wife.

Sometimes its easier to beg for forgivness that it is to get permission.

I would find it hard to believe any Nikon Binos could beat the Zen-Ray binos in optical quality.

I sold my leica's for them. I kept my 15x56 swaro's, but I feel the nikons would make me off them too if they made a big pair.

I'll start by saying I've looked through plenty of Swaros, Leicas and Zeiss.
At one point I had both Zeiss and Kahles in my safe at the same time.
They're both gone but the Nikons are still there.

I am not one to endorse nikon sport optics, but they hit the nail on the head with this one.
