Product Description ------------------- ED glass, dielectric high-reflective mirror coating, and phase correction coating work together to deliver sharp, bright images. Taking full advantage of Nikon’s long successful history in optical technology, the Monarch 5 binoculars are evidence alone of the sophistication and expertise used to create such high performing sports optics. Designed to give lovers of the outdoors the chance to observe nature in all its spectacular glory, the Monarch 5 series reveal the smallest details, even under the most challenging light conditions. Whether you are stargazing, hiking up a rain swept ain, or taking a voyage to spot marine life, these versatile, rugged binoculars will provide a clear view and captivate the moment perfectly. Highly Accled Performance ---------------------------- Exceptional image quality is realised across the Monarch 5 range with an advanced lens and roof prism construction. The objective lens diameters of 42mm or 56mm, combined with magnifications from 8x to 20x suit an array of situations to ensure you get the best possible view. Employing Nikon’s legendary ED glass to minimise chromatic aberrations, images of superior contrast and outstanding resolution are delivered. For excellent light transmission across the visible range, dielectric high-reflective multilayer prism coatings offer bright, sharp images with natural colours even in poor light conditions. A phase-correction coating is also applied to guarantee high resolution images at any distance. Highly Durable -------------- Made for intense use even under formidable conditions, Monarch 5 binoculars are extremely practical with all models using waterproof and fog-free construction. With a robust housing, the binoculars are waterproof up to 1 metre for 10 minutes, and to prevent fog or mould from forming inside the optical system, Nikon have used nitrogen , so a sudden change in weather won’t cloud your view.
