Is the Nikon Prostaff P3 8x42 good for birding?

Yes. The 8x magnification, 5 mm exit pupil and wide 377 ft field of view suit birding and wildlife watching, and the view stays bright in low light.

How does it compare with the Prostaff P3 10x42?

The 10x42 gives more magnification but a narrower field of view and a smaller exit pupil. The 8x42 is steadier to hold and brighter in dim light.

Can I use it with glasses?

The listed eye relief is 1 mm, which is far too short for glasses wearers. Check the actual eye relief before buying if you wear glasses.

What comes in the box?

The listing includes a case for the binoculars. Check the full box contents with the store before ordering.

How much does it weigh?

It weighs 1.27 lb, which is on the heavier side for an 8x42 and worth considering for long hikes.

Is it worth it against pricier 8x42 binoculars?

The agent rates the view as well above its class for the money, with a bright image and a wide field. You give up autofocus and some weight savings, not optical quality.
