Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Is there any other difference between the two models besides the slight color difference in viewing blue objects? I couldn’t see any major improvement of the new 7294 vs. the old 7430 that justifies the $50 price difference.
Bob,
That is the biggest difference. You’ll have a brighter image with the 7294.
Hello,
Thanks for your reviews, they have been very helpful.
I found that some glasses wearers were disappointed with the new Nikon 8×42 ATB, because was hard to get focus image. But there is no difference in eye relief between both binos. So, the Nikon ATB (7430 and 7294) really adjust well with glasses?
Yes, I find that both the 7430 & 7294 adjust well with glasses. I like both binoculars.
