 "Nikon 2yr warranty" 2010-02-15
By Keisha Kenya Stiger
Nikon already gives you a 1yr warranty but u can never have too much warranty, especially a 2yr warranty for only $7. GREAT DEAL AND IT CAME QUICKLY IN THE MAIL!

it was useless... it was purchased seperate from the camera

and if you don't register within 10 days of original purchase

it's not valid. and the warrenty was purchased and recieved

after the 10days...good thing it was less than $10.00



only buy this at the same time as the camera



Amazon.. should not sell this product seperatly

 "Fantastic Camara" 2010-01-17

This camera has exceeded our expectations.



Great size and great specs. for the price.

 "Don't buy unless you buy it with camera purchase" 2010-01-02
By G. Boucher (Chicago)
Make sure you read the last line of the description because you have 10 days from the purchase of the camera to return warranty to Nikon! I received a camera as a gift and bought the warranty thinking the warranty started from the purchase date on the receipt. When I received the warranty, it stated that I had 10 days from camera purchase date to return the warranty for it to be effective. Only buy this when you buy a new camera at the same time.

 "Extended Warranty" 2009-09-12
By C. Allen (Seattle, WA USA)
I normally don't go for the extended warranties or service contracts but for the price it is cheap insurance. I have not used it but logic would indicate that an extended warranty offered by a reputable original equipment manufacturer would be superior to any third-party offering. I received the certificate in the mail within a few days of making the purchase and registered it on line with Nikon without issue.

Review Nikon Action 12x50 EX Extreme ATB Binocular

Buy Cheap Nikon Action 12x50 EX Extreme ATB Binocular From Here Now!
The Nikon Action Extreme binoculars feature an all-metal chassis with lens fittings housed in a tough, lightweight polycarbonate body shell. Like all Nikon All Terrain Binoculars, the EX is nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed for total waterproof, fogproof and shockproof performance in any environment. The binocular bodies are ergonomically shaped, tripod adaptable and are rubber coated for a non-slip grip, whether wet or dry. The new Extreme ATB offerings utilize high-resolution lenses and prism systems crafted from Nikons exclusive Eco Glass, which is made without the use of arsenic or lead. This lens system provides an extremely clear, distortion-free image over the entire field of view. The lens elements each incorporate multi-layered anti-reflective coatings formulated to deliver optimum brightness, high contrast, true color rendition and flare-free viewing in most lighting conditions. The Extreme series binoculars each feature a unique, click-stop eyecup design that not only delivers long eye relief, but also allows for variable eye relief that is customizable to the users own eyes and eyeglasses. The binoculars are central focus with a diopter control to correct for normal right/left eye vision imbalance.

 "Bigger not always better" 2010-02-09
By B. Mo
I bought a set of the Nikon 8x40 Action Ex for my girlfriend and I liked them so much I decided to get a pair for myself. Not wanting to get the exact same ones she had, I decided to 'upgrade' to the 10x50. The 10x50 are about 200g heavier and significantly larger as well. Overall I found that they were too hard to stabilize, and the focus mechanism too slow with too much resistance. In the end, the extra magnification provided little advantage as the image was not any clearer than the 8x40, and the image was much less stable.



In the end, I returned the 10x50 for another pair of the 8x40 Action Ex and I couldn't be happier.

 "Lookee" 2009-12-26
By Steven Lefler (Kenai, Alaska)
We do a lot of wildlife viewing from our house (we live way out in the boonies). The glass in these binoculars is very clear. The 50mm lenses allow wildlife viewing at night.



I do not take them out into the weather so cannot speak to how they will hold up in bad weather. They are too large and heavy to carry around in the woods but work great for our use.

 "12x50 not as good as expected based on reviews" 2009-06-01
By Rick Taylor (Kentucky)
Note: Amazon is combining reviews for Action Extreme models with 50mm objectives; 7x50, 10x50, 12x50, 16x50 etc.



We already had the Nikon Action 8x40 which I think was reasonable quality for $60, but I was somewhat disappointed by the Action Extreme 12x50 I bought when I wanted something waterproof and with more reach. Both the Action and Action Extreme have a lot of internal reflection that causes glare around the edges during daytime viewing and from bright objects at night like the moon. This is very noticeable and I wonder why so few these reviews mention it. The glare from a blue sky really intrudes into the lower half of your view while watching animals on the ground, indicating that Nikon has skimped on the quality of the lens and prism coatings.



I use these mostly for bird watching on our farm, and they are decent but nothing special. The extra dollars you pay to go from the Action to the Action Extreme line must all be for the waterproofing, as my admittedly casual observation is that the optics quality is very similar to the Action series. However, the Action Extreme is noticeably more solidly built and rugged in nature and more likely to survive being dropped. Both models have objective lens covers that are guaranteed to be lost if you rely on the slots that are supposed to be used to attach them to the straps. You can punch or drill a hole in the slotted tabs and then use a plastic clip or even string to keep them from falling off the strap.



Brightness was sufficient, as these are not fully multi-coated so I didn't expect them to be tremendously bright, especially at 12x, but improved coatings would also enhance the brightness. The twist-up adjustable eye cups work beautifully for a glasses wearer like me (and are far superior to the rubber cups that fold down on the Action model).



The Nikon brand reputation was the deciding factor for me, but if you have an opportunity to get another decent waterproof set for less, I suggest comparing them if you can. I wish that I had. If you can afford it, the NIKON 7296 Monarch III 12x42 Binocular series promises to be substantially better than these (the Monarchs are fully multi-coated, plus they offer roof prism if you prefer that to porro). Overall, I was just a little let down on the image quality from these as the reviews on Amazon were mostly glowing.



I would still recommend them to friends but I would definitely shop around for comparable quality for less money. I suspect some of the waterproof Bushnells I've seen priced significantly less aren't much different. Of course, the way everything is sealed in plastic these days the opportunity to compare is severely limited unless you have a friendly camera shop nearby, or maybe a birding group whose members can let you see through their equipment.

 "Very good in this price range. Not perfect." 2009-04-02
By D. Hentze (United States)
Since it looks like Amazon is consolidating several of the Nikon Binocular reviews into one, this review is for the Nikon Action Extreme (#7245) 10x50 Binoculars. I wish Amazon didn't do this since the specs are much different between the "Action" and "Action Extreme" models. ...Anyway, the Action Extremes are very good binoculars. They are not the best you can buy, but you can buy much worse. Actually, there is only one thing that keeps me from giving the 7245's a 5 Star Rating. The optical coatings could be better. The binoculars suffer from some internal reflections when used under difficult lighting situations, such as viewing a bright object like a full moon. The optical coatings are better than your average binoculars, but not as good as some other models. Most of the better ones will cost much more though. During normal circumstances though, the 7245's shine. They have excellent edge to edge sharpness and clarity. I have no problem seeing very fine detail at far distances. All in all, I give them 4.5 stars.



Pros:

Moderately priced.

Waterproof and fogproof.

Rugged construction.

Excellent performance under most conditions.

Long eye relief (17.2mm).

Good accessories.

25 year limited no fault warranty.



Cons:

Optical coatings could be better.

Slightly heavy.

 "Tremendo Lente de Nikon lo recomiendo 100%!!!!! es Excelente!!" 2010-02-24
By Carlos Bustamante V (Venezuela)
Este objetivo es nítido incluso con aberturas grandes, el VR (estabilizador de imagen) funciona muy bien, la velocidad del autofoco es más que aceptable (muy rápido), y es muy ligero y compacto. El hecho de que cueste menos de 225 dólares y ademas posea un VR eficaz es bastante sorprendente, ninguna otra compañía ofrece un lente con esta función a este precio.



En cuanto a la calidad de imagen, busque en los sitios de fotos blogs distintos de Internet, como dpreview y Nikonians y las fotos de muestra tomadas con este objetivo por los usuarios del lente y los resultados son impresionantes!



Le doy al lente 5 estrellas basándome en una combinación de calidad de la imagen, el valor, y lo portable de este objetivo.

 "Great lens at a great price." 2010-02-24
By Jared M. Leblanc (Little Elm, TX United States)
This is a great lens to add to your collection. I own the D40 which comes with the 18-55mm lens, and found that it was insufficient to capture all of the photos that I needed to take. What I have quickly figured out (and liked) about this lens is that the VR function does more than just steady a highly zoomed shot. I figured out that I can use this function in dimly lit situations, like night shooting or indoor shooting with out a flash and the VR will virtually eliminate any motion blur that you would normally experience from a longer shutter speed. Plus, you can't beat this price! Phenomenal lens for the price.

 "Pretty Good Lens" 2010-02-24
By Nicholas Erwin (Waterbury, VT)
I have the 18-55mm VR lens for my D60 and wanted more focal length and took me a while to figure out what I wanted to do and after viewing photos and listening and reading other comments, asking questions about this lens and so I decided to buy this lens and I am very happy with it. It's been really nice taking photos with it, though it's not great for indoors, maybe be good with a external flash or something.



It's cold here and I haven't really bother going outside to take photos, but I do when spring and summer comes along and then is where I will fully test this lens, so far it's been producing some nice images.



I think if you got the 18-55, totally get this 55-200 VR. It's worth every penny!

 "Unsung bargain of consumer lenses" 2010-02-22
By NewEnglandScene (New Hampshire)
This little lens is the sleeper of Nikon consumer lenes. It is capable of producing some excellent photos on Nikon's consumer and and prosumer bodies. The lens is worth 50-75% more than its bargain price of $150. It is sharp and super lightweight. Perfect walk-around telezoom for my D90.



I own the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 VRII, which I regard as the reference standard in size lens. And if that lens is a 10 (and by the way, the new VRII 'is really a 10'!), then this lens, which costs 1/10 the price, is a 7.5. Not bad!



Okay, so wouldn't use this lens on D700 or D3 (they are FX anyway), but for the D90 and models below, this is your lens. I have tried the 70-200 f/2.8 VR (the older version) on my D90, and the limitation is the camera. That is too much lens for the D90, and you don't take full advantage of the lens, more so for the new VRII lens.



For the D300, you probably want the 70-300mm VR or the the 70-200 f/2.8 VR or the VRII if you want to pay the extra money.



Yes, this is a plastic lens. But the construction is reasonable for its pricepoint. Don't let the plastic fool you. This lens is fast focusing and accurate. It comes with a 5 year warranty if it goes out of alignment. And for $150, what do you care if it breaks?



As far as I am concerned this lens is a no-brainer addition to the 18-105 kit lens that comes with the D90. The only other choice for that camera is the 70-300mm VR, which will yield slightly better pictures and give some additional range ...but comparing $150 for this lens to $540 for that lens, unless you really think you need the extra length, this is the lens for you.



I chose to give this 5-stars, because for the price and in its class, this is a really super lens. Compared to the Nikkor reference standard telezoom, okay, it is 4-stars. But that isn't a fair comparison.

 "Wrong size for my camera..." 2009-11-23
By M. DiStefano (Bloomfield Hills, MI)
The cable arrived promptly, but it was too large for my camera. I have the Nikon Coolpix L18 camera. According to the description of this cable, it should fit that exact camera, but it did not. Since the cable came from another source (not Amazon directly), I called them and the person I spoke with couldn't have been nicer. She looked up the information and realized I needed the "mini" cable. OK, fine. But they need to change the description on the cable I received - it does NOT fit the L18, as stated.

They sent me the replacement promptly, along with a postage paid label to return the other cable. Easy and quick.

 "Understand what you are buying and why and you will be happy!" 2010-02-08
By Rick V (IN)
Background you can skip

I realize a lot has been written everywhere about this lens. Just look at KenRockwell or DPReview and the sheer detailed reviews from fellow photographers around the internet. One thing is special about photo-ists: they are hardly fan-boys: if something is a-miss with a product then that get splattered out in gory detail, often with photo evidence... Why am I saying this? Because I think you can therefore trust the overall rating of this lens on the web. This one is often referred to as the model 1902, as well, by the way.

I wanted to add my 2 cents since I have bought several lenses in the last year that are all very similar. This review focuses on the 1.8 and 1.4 50mm lenses. The other 2 lenses are reviewed on their individual product pages. I thought some others might be trying to choose between these 2 lenses, but having a hard time determining the relatively steep price difference between the 1.4 and 1.8. I will not go into the technical differences between the 2 either as others that are more adept than me have done that and I am predominantly a person that focuses on the results and not the specs.



The primes I own:

85mm 1.8

35mm 1.8

50mm 1.8 ( http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-50mm-Nikkor-Digital-Cameras/dp/B00005LEN4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1265596625&sr=8-2 )

50mm 1.4 (this one)

I bought this lens especially for portraiture. I am a hobbyist but my camera is glued to me (a D90) and I tend to shoot lots of shots indoors, capturing casual moments of my kids, pets and so on. Probably very similar to any other proud dad and hubby.

Initially I did not want to shell out for the 50mm 1.4 and decided to get the well respected 50mm 1.8. I loved the 1.8 from the start. It was great indoors and even at the 1.8 f-stop it was sharp (with the softness that one can expect). The color rendering is beautiful and I love what it does to skin tones combined with the softness wide open. Since the 1.8 became my most beloved portrait lens I decided that it would be worth looking at upgrading to the 1.4. So I took the leap.



Of course the extra light is great but do the photos come out magically better? No, not for the pro-mateur like myself. The AF is a little faster it seems and perhaps, but I am not sure, the colors come out a little more vibrant. Softness wise at wide open I think they are equally soft but the 1.4 gets tack sharp at f2 whereas the 1.8 needs to get closer to f4. I happen to shoot mostly in the f2 to f4 range so this is acceptable for both.



The bokeh (the out of focus texture of the background that can make the subject look like it was placed in front of a wonderful milky pastel) is impressive on both lenses. I cannot say that there is a visibly distinguishable edge for either.



Ofcourse the depth of field with the 1.4 is more pronouced than with the 1.8 at wide open.



My simple conclusion

I am not trying to compare a 100 dollar lens to a 300 dollar lens because the 300 dollar one is the better lens when you read all the reviews and I *think* I agree. However, when you are looking for value for money, the 1.8 wins hands down. You get so close to the 1.4 results and if you're a photoholic amateur like myself you will be deliriously happy with the 1.8. Once you have exhausted its capabilities (which will take most of us 20 years of learning) or you become enamored with sports photography (or your kids play ice hockey and you do not want to flash) then the 1.4 becomes more realistic.

I recommend that if you are on a budget then you start with the 1.8. Once you are ready to upgrade you simply sell it, you will always get 80% of value back if well treated, and substitute with the much more expensive 1.4.

Al the serious pros would simply jump straight to the 1.4 but that is not the audience this review is meant for. Hope this helps.

By Tamanh Nguyen (california, USA)
I am new to photography, after reading several review between Nikon 50mm f1.8 and 50mm f/1.4 , I decided to choose 50 mm f1.4

with this one, even the one who have not known much about photography, like me, can make a good picture. this lense is good for portrait, or macro

 "THE Normal Lens" 2010-01-30
By M. Kelley (Hot Spring, AR. USA)
I have always wanted to get the Nikon 50mm f/1.4 lens for my camera but normal for the Nikon DX cameras was the 35mm f/ 2.0 which I have. The 50mm is the equivalent of 75mm with the DX's smaller sensor. Now with the Nikon D700 The 50mm is back to producing a normal size image because the sensor in the camera is the same as 35mm film in size. So I got one.

The lens is excellent. It allows shooting in available light and with this camera, at ISOs faster than otherwise possible. The lens is sharp as a tack and it allows for selective focus, producing a narrow depth of field at its maximum f stop. It is a breeze to operate. You have to remember to keep your focusing hand clear of the focusing ring as it spins in auto focus mode.

This lens configuration is one of Nikons oldest and simplest and is one of the sharpest lenses they make. I would recommend this lens to anyone wanting a prime lens that is tack sharp and very fast.

 "Brilliant lens" 2010-01-25
By J. Lozano (Dallas, USA)
Got this lens a month or so ago, perhaps longer. Build is strong and the quality of the images are superb. Now I just wish I had a full frame camera to go with it!

By Robert J. McDonough (Atlanta, GA USA)
Bought this for my wife. She loves it - takes crisp photos in low light conditions. Variable fields of view let you focus on one part of the focal plane while blurring out everything else, giving images a very professional "portrait studio look."

 "great beginner to avid enthusiast" 2010-01-23

great for indoor/ outdoor use very inexspensive for the quality of pictures. a little slow at taking pictures but :( butt all in all a good camera for under 300

 "Love it!" 2010-01-10
By Cyirra (North Dakota)
I have had this camera for about a year and have taken more than 3000 shots with it. The only thing that I have trouble with is when useing for close up work it does not always want to focus, but if you zoom out then back in you can usually get it to focus on what you want. The file sizes are large enough that you can crop and still keep it at a large enough size to get nice sized prints (4x6, 5x9, never tried getting 8x10's). Awesome for those that enjoy taking photos, may not satisfy those that are looking to sell. I have never been disappointed with image quality. I bought a Canon Rebel XSI (SLR) to replace it but when I used it I was VERY disappointed in what I got and went back to my Nikon.

I was forced by a poor timing situation to buy a lower level camera for school. For fun I kept researching after class started and found out this was what I wanted. I've been waiting for eight months and I finally bought it. I Love It!

 "I love this camera!" 2009-11-03
By M. Adams (Kentucky)
I'm definitely a novice. There's a lot I need to learn in order to be able to take better photos, but this camera is easy to use. I can take pretty good pictures with it...just pointing and shooting. I haven't learned a lot about the settings yet, but I'm sure that when I do, my photos will be even better! So far, I have captured some really great photos of my kids and of the mountain scenery here where I live! The camera is fun to use, and I figure I will just keep experimenting with it to see what works for me! I cannot believe Nikon has discontinued this camera! The Nikon Coolpix P80 is easily portable. I carry it in a large padded camera bag that will hold other accessories and other "non-camera" things that I need to carry with me. It could easily be carried in a much smaller bag with all the things that you need just for the camera...extra batteries, extra memory cards, etc. It's very light weight and easy to use. It's the kind of camera that makes a novice want to learn more about taking really good photos!

 "The best camera ever!" 2009-08-29
By Sarah (USA)
This camera is the best camera that I have ever had. Yes, there probably are better cameras, but I have never experienced them and this camera works just the way I need it to. This lightweight camera has amazing features and takes the best pictures. My favorite feature on the camera is the rapid action shot. On the dial wheel, you can find it by locating the picture of a runner running. That feature is really good when you need to take pictures of children running and playing around or, my favorite, when you take fireworks. I have gotten some really good shots of fireworks at just the right moment. Shots that would not have been possible if I have not had this shot. All in all, I definitely recommend that you get this camera for all of your photography needs. This lightweight, attractive, reasonably cheap camera is the perfect camera for you!

VR Electronic Image Stabilization takes camera movement data from a built-in angular velocity sensor and applies in-camera image processing to turn blurred images into beautifully clear results, on the spot or anytime later.Extended light sensitivity range of ISO 50 to ISO 2000 and the new image-processing engine's ability to preserve high image quality at high ISO settings provide new opportunities to shoot more effectively in lower lighting conditions.That's plenty of sharp resolution to capture the finest details, crop creatively and produce beautiful enlargements. Optimizing performance and color reproduction is an advanced new image processing engine. And the quality optics of a 28-102mm Zoom-Nikkor lens (35mm equivalent) maximizes compositional freedom.

 "nikon coolpix p50" 2010-02-06
By James Cubberley (YAKIMA, WASHINGTON, US)
Someone trashed this camera in a previous review, very early after it appeared. The truth is, the P50

is a excellent camera, that is capable of taking really great pics. Closeups are crisp, scenics are

spetacular, due in part from the 28mm wide angle lens! It has a VIEWFINDER in addition to the lcd panel

on the back. I had a p50, and lost it about a year ago. I was lucky to find another one here in Amazon...

I bought it from SWIMMOUSE. Great guy to deal with. Brand new in the box. I'm a happy guy again, snapping

pics almost every day. I have two other 10meg digitals and they don't hold a candle to the Nikon P50.

 "Not Nikon's best work" 2010-02-03
By S. McLaughlin (Titusville,FL)
Being an avid Nikon user (D300) wanting a decent image producing camera, the P50 does not deliver. Nice features and manual settings +/- exp., time lapse, etc. I miss the quality images from my previous Canon point-n-shoot.

 "I'm satisfied" 2009-07-04
By R. Williams (Indianapolis, IN)
I like this camera and I'd recommend it. While at times it doesn't like to completely close the lens and/or shut down when I power it off, it's still a good purchase in my opinion.



This is easily my forth or fifth digital camera over the years, so I know what I like and don't like- as well as need and don't need. My needs are pretty minimal and I'm pretty sure 8.1 MP was overkill for me. I don't do anything fancy and really only desire a camera that's easy to operate (ie I don't need to resort to the instructions or manual) and takes decent family photos. However I did research this camera prior to buying and it seems some people thought it even good for more advanced levels of photography- of course, not professional.



I will say it seems a lot less durable (the actually camera casing??? not sure if that's the correct term but I'm going with it- the black part) than I expected- especially for a Nikon. Oh, I will it requires rechargable AA or digital camera AA- so plan on either buy a least two rechargable sets (to have one and one for back up) or lots of AAs bc it's pretty typically to most cameras on battery life.



But minus few random things I mentioned, I'd say it's a pretty good camera and very user friendly (my mother even figured it out within a few attempts and she just recently figured out call waiting on her cell phone! So that says a lot!).

Purchased N/P50 in early June 09 , took it to Niagara Falls , Ont . , and shot close to 400 pictures ! In rain , and mist conditions , with careful usage , I have some of the best Digital Pictures I have ever taken ! D Lighting saved me in numerous situations , and my shots of N/Falls from the " Maid of the Mist " are just beautiful ! I used Lithium Batteries and for Three Days I was captured by this Little Wonder of a Camera ! Prior experience helped me , of course , but this Digital Camera made the whole Trip completely worthwhile , and enjoyable ! High praise to Nikon ! R E Keay

 "Not good for pix of kids or pets" 2009-05-15
By Lizzie T. (Los Angeles)
The shutter lag on this camera is really, really slow, so if you are buying and hoping to get pix of kids and pets - you know, things that move around a lot - then you are in for a world of frustration. If you are doing landscapes, posed shots or stuff like that, I'm sure it's a fine camera. Also, after the shutter finally goes off and you get that blurry picture, you have to wait for the picture to actually load into the memory, so you will miss some photo op's then as well.



I did try to contact the manufacturer to see if I could do something to speed up the shutter speed, but Nikon customer help for camera usage doesn't seem to exist.
