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.

Operational Simplicity
----------------------
Sometimes a split second is all you have for that dream ing
of a rare bird, but with decades of design experience, Nikon know
how to engineer binoculars that are easy to use and quick to
adjust. With this in mind, features have been included to provide
effortless operation ensuring you get the very best from these
accomplished sports optics. So whether you wear glasses, contact
lenses, or use your binoculars without either, you’ll have the
perfect view of your chosen subject. Compensating for differences
between your left and right eye, the twist-type dioptre ring
helps you achieve the sharpest possible image, while the
high-eyepoint design provides a clear view of the entire field
even when wearing spectacles. For comfort, the multi-click
turn-and-slide rubber eyecups can either be positioned outwards
to provide a good eye rest or retracted when using sunglasses or
other eyewear.
Comfortable Viewing
-------------------
Built to handle any environment, a fibreglass-reinforced
polycarbonate body covered in rubber armouring for shock
resistance means the Monarch 5 series is ready to withstand
extreme use. The rubber housing also provides a firm, non-slip
grip even in the wettest conditions. Flip-down objective lens
caps protect the lenses from everyday knocks while allowing quick
access when it’s time to jump into action. With a conveniently
compact design, these lightweight binoculars are perfect for
handheld outdoor use and can be worn around the neck with the
wide neoprene strap provided or ed on a tripod using the
TRA-3 tripod adaptor supplied with the 16x56 and 20x56 models.
For a finely tuned view, witness the magnificence of nature
through the superior lenses of Nikon's Monarch 5 binoculars.
