I would say so they are gas filled so never fog up. Nikon makes good binocs.

I love how this always works out for me. I wanted this camera for my cruise on the 18th, but went ahead and got the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS7 12.1 MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 3.0-Inch LCD (Red) last week because I didn't think the Nikon would be here in time. Now that it's here, what should I do? I like the GPS on the Panasonic, but it takes HORRIBLE low light pics. Any help would be appreciated!

I asked this same question a month ago. We just returned and the binoculars will definitely fit your needs in Alaska. They weigh close to two pounds--not too heavy. The only drawback I found was the case is too small once the neck strap is in place.....a good choice and a good value. Have a great time in Alaska. I wish you sunshine and cloudless dy.

For the D50 and D90 I'm partial to the 28-200. Got three from Tamron and one from Sigma and all were under $100 on Ebay. They AF quickly and are razorsharp. Most were bought attached to a cheapo camera like an N60 or a N2020.

I purchased these for wildlife viewing on a fall Alaska cruise and I am very happy with the quality and clarity. After comparing several brands and models, I don't know of another bino that compares at this price point. They were recommended on a few bird watching web sites as a best buy and now that I own a pair, I agree. Image quality is sharp and clear, even at close range. Eye relief is excellent with and w/o glasses. Weight is as expected with quality optics and lens covers are easy to use. I think the 8x is great for bird watching, 10x may have been better for the cruise. I've had no issues or problems.

I have never had one converted but from what I have heard and read the D70s is a good candidate for IR. I no longer have my to D70s as I am shooting a D7000. Guess I should have kept my D70 s body for IR.

I have used Nikon with great satisfaction. I wanted a compact camera. It has high megapixels. I love purple. It was on sale.

It worked fine in my D90 while in Alaska. Hope that helps. The only difference I recall was that it was 2600mH vs 2100 for Nikon.

I live in Alaska and it's very dark here in the winter. I bought the camera to catch crooks at night. The camera captures a clean night shot of a person up to about 30 feet. I'm really impressed with the clarity. I think it's definitely worth the price.

This was my second DSLR and before this I had Nikon. Picture quality is better then Nikon and it has Image stabilization (IS)although most of lenses now a days have vibration reduction (VR) but it is not same ( IS is better then VR). And also it is water resistant so I believe it is ideal for your need. I love my camera.

Not that I'm aware of. To date, this camera has performed flawlessly. I wish it had been available a few years sooner, when I was able to get to Alaska and it's abundant wildlife.

I think so. we took them to Costa Rica and they were great. If you want greater magnification, I would get scope with a mount but that would be a bit too bulky on a cruise so these binocs are the best alternative I think.

Took it, and our Olympus Tough Tg-1, to Hawaii.The Olympus survived the water. The Nikon did not.

Thanks for the info Clint and the response. I am off to Hawaii for 2 weeks of shooting and will probably order my D800 when I return. Would have liked to have had it before I leave but I'm gone on Wednesday.

No. I took it to Alaska and never even used it. Of course, I have the 55-200, which is a much better lens. If you don't have any other zoom, and someone gives you a 55-300, then sure!
