• There is a 5.0mm exit pupil in this binocular that will cover most pupils as they can open as well as dilate in low light. They also provide a complete view of the area.

The Nikon 8248 ACULON A211 is a great value binocular that provides impressive performance. It has the stamp of Nikon so, it is quite good as a binocular. In addition, this model also has quite a great overall price to performance ratio though it can feel a bit expensive. But you are paying that extra money for Japanese craftsmanship. This binocular might not be best for everyone but it still is an excellent choice if you want a solid binocular with great design, optics, and comfort, much like the Swarovski 8.5×42 EL.
