About Nikon 12x42 Monarch M5 Waterproof Roof Prism Binocular with 5.1 Degree AoV,Black

It's in the enchanting light of dawn and dusk that the most captivating moments unfold. The MONARCH M5 12x42 binoculars are specifically designed to capture these moments, offering an expansive field of view and the highest magnification power in the series: 12x. These binoculars feature adjustable turn-and-slide eyecups and long eye relief, making them the most comfortable in the MONARCH range.

Nikon's esteemed ED glass minimizes chromatic aberration, while the dielectric high-reflective multilayer prism coatings enhance light transmittance, resulting in brighter images and more natural colors. Phase-corrected coatings are also applied to prism surfaces to boost image resolution, delivering superior optics that elevate your viewing experience.

The MONARCH M5 12x42 binoculars boast large 42mm objectives that gather ample light and provide a remarkably clear field of view. With 12x magnification, objects appear twelve times closer than their actual distance, bringing the world closer to you.

The roof prisms on these binoculars are coated with a phase-corrected coating for high resolutions, offering a viewing experience that needs to be seen to be believed. The eco-friendly multilayer coating applied to all lens and prism surfaces ensures superior transmittance uniformity across the visible range, resulting in brighter images and more natural colors.

Nikon's ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass, used in many of their premium optics, virtually eliminates common distortion, chromatic aberrations, and color fringing, delivering clear high-resolution views in nearly any lighting condition.

The MONARCH M5 12x42 binoculars offer close, smooth focusing, allowing you to get as close as 8.2-ft. from your subject for striking high-detailed views. The large, smooth-spinning central focus knob makes it easy to precisely adjust focus.

These binoculars deliver a 267-ft. wide field of view at 1,000 yards, wider than their predecessors, making it easier to locate your subject, especially when spotting birds and wildlife amid trees and landscapes.

Nikon's comfortable high-eyepoint design leaves sufficient space between your brow and the eyecups for a clear field of view, even when you're wearing glasses. The turn-and-slide rubber eyecups are easy to adjust for maximum comfort and field of view.

The enhanced rubber-armored body provides a non-slip grip and protection from bumps and bruises. These binoculars are nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed for fog-free performance, ensuring your optics remain clear when you need them most.

Weighing in at just 22.6 ounces, the MONARCH M5 12x42 binoculars are compact and lightweight, making them the perfect companions for adventures of any kind.
