The Nikon Monarch M5 12×42 Binocular has a wider field of view than its predecessor, providing you with a more immersive observational experience, and has the same focus on comfort and performance the Monarch line is known for.
Featuring extra-low dispersion glass elements with anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics and highly reflective dielectric-coated and phase-corrected roof prisms, the Monarch M5 produces bright and clear high-contrast images with true-to-life colour and minimal colour fringing.
Improving on their Monarch 5 design, Nikon‘s Monarch M5 12×42 Binocular is ideal for use in wide-open terrain, like what’s in the American West, when you need to scan for subjects and make a positive identification.
Optical Performance
- The powerful magnification allows for detailed observation of distant subjects across vast flat ground like the prairies of the American West
- Larger objective lenses improve light-gathering ability without adding excessive bulk or weight
- Roof prism light path ensures optical tubes remain thin for a compact form factor
- Extra low-dispersion glass reduces chromatic and spherical aberrations for increased contrast, improved color rendition, and sharpness without distortion across the entire field of view
- Phase-correcting prism coatings reduce internal interference to improve light transmission, contrast, and resolution
- Anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics maximize light transmission across the entire visible spectrum for accurate color rendition and improved contrast and clarity
- Highly reflective multilayer dielectric prism coatings boost internal reflection to >99% to maintain image brightness and improve contrast and clarity
- Improved wider field of view than previous models presents a more immersive observational experience
Use and Handling
- High-eyepoint design provides ample space between your brow and the eyecups for a clear field of view, even when you’re wearing glasses
- Closed-bridge configuration provides a solid and stable platform for the internal focusing mechanism
- Large slip centre focus wheel allows for precise focus control, even while wearing gloves
- Right eye dioptric adjustment collar helps to compensate for individual eye prescription
- 56-72mm interpupillary distance range allows easy use by a wide variety of people
- Twist-up/click-stop rubber eyecups for use with or without eyewear
- Tripod mountable with optional adapter for hands-free use
- Comfortable exit pupil will cover most pupils as they open when the light is fading to keep the full scene in view
Construction Details
- Environmentally friendly Eco-Glass is made without lead or arsenic
- Textured protective rubber armoring provides a slip-resistant grip, especially in cold and wet weather
- Nitrogen-filled and O-ring-sealed to be waterproof and resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme temperature changes and environmental conditions
- Black colouring allows it to remain inconspicuous in all environments
- One-piece tethered Ocular Rainguard protects eyecups from water pooling in them from rain or spraying water when hanging from the neck
- Tethered fold-down objective lens caps prevents losing them during observation sessions
