    Cons: Too heavy for a 32mm The strap and rain guard could be better, hence a 3 for accessories.

    Pros: I bought these binoculars in Japan, second-hand but in very good condition. What stands out immediately is the easy viewing, which is not a given for a 30 or 32mm. Many small-size binoculars are characterized by difficult eye placement resulting in blackouts; not so with the Nikon HG L. It behaves more like a full-size pair of binoculars. The focuser is particularly fast, 270° from minimum to infinity, so you have to turn very slowly at the end to achieve 100% focus. The image is clear and sharp right up to the edge. Built like a tank, and the focuser is very pleasant to use, almost fluid.

    Summary: If you can find one in good condition and at a decent price, don\'t hesitate; you won\'t regret it.

    Cons: Very heavy for a 8X32 class binoculars

    Pros: Very easy to look through this binoculars thanks to excellent eyepieces. This instrument has very good light transmission and excellent resolution on the edges. HG-L does not have the resolution of the new model Monarch HG 8x30 but off-axis the old HG-L are far superior to the new one. Also the construction is like a tank.

    Summary: This binoculars are no longer manufactured but it is still very competitive!

    Cons: Rubber armour is very durable but shows up scuff marks etc very easily. Quite large and heavy for an 8 x 32 binocular

    Pros: Excellent ergonomics. Superb smooth focusing wheel, good eye relief, large field of view. Built like a tank. At least as good as any German 8 x 32s, but without the perceived status of Zeiss, Swarovski, Leica. I have a pair of Leica 8 x 32 BAs, and the Nikons are a better all round binocular!

    Summary: One of the best 8 x 32 binoculars ever made. Sharp, bright, great handling ion the field and the best focusing wheel of any binocular on the market.
