User questions & answers

Question:	What is the difference between the monarch 5 7576 and the monarch 3 7540, what are the different features, and the difference in the optical quality
Answer:	My brother is the expert that gave me all of my information. I don't understand all the technical stuff, but he said that there is a huge difference in the quality of the "glass" between the 3 and the 5. The clarity is well worth the difference in price. I have used my husbands hunting bins for bird watching (one pair was a Nikon brand) and believe me, my monarch 5 7576 is so much clearer than his, I am afraid to let him borrow them for fear I won't get them back. Haha.
Question:	Are these binocs... the Monarch 5 10x42 good for long distance viewing for instance at the beach, looking out on the ocean at ships or for whales
Answer:	The power is adequate enough to enhance the view but not so powerful that you can't hold steady on the image. So no, you won't get long distance detail but it will bring the image closer. I find high powered binocs almost impossible to hold steady. These are the perfect balance. I love them.
Question:	What comes in the box? carry case? strap
Answer:	carry case, strap, lens covers for both front and back and user manuals. Suggest you purchase the pencil style Nikon lens cleaning tool as well... Very handy and only $7.00. we live at the beach. The optics are indeed amazing for the price.
Question:	Should I be really concerned about the adverse reviews on the lens caps
Answer:	Yes & No. I use binoculars for my work and own several pairs of various manufacturer's bino's & spotting scopes. These binoculars are a great value. At this price point, in my experience, they have better than average optical quality and build quality for this price range. The lens caps are junk. Nikon claims the ocular (eye piece) lens cover is purposely designed for a loose fit....they fit so loosely they fail to protect the lens from dust & dirt. The PRIMARY job of a lens cap is to protect the lenses, not be convenient. If you are at all active while wearing them, the lens cover will come off, providing no protection, increasing the risk of damage. Also, the highest likelihood of damage to lenses comes from improper cleaning and you will be cleaning the ocular lenses often. Be careful, use the right soft cloth or a lens pen, and try not to scratch or remove the coatings. The Objective lens covers are a little better. They fit better and were redesigned to have both an inner and outer lip to grip the barrels better. They are attached to the barrels, but over time, the plastic tether will break. Nikon will send you replacements when this happens. I do find you must swivel these caps out of the way. If you don't, they have a tendency to pop up into your field of view. The sad thing is every time I use these, these little, easily solved problems are a constant annoyance. I tried installing a thin strip of duct tape on the ocular lens cover, which helped them fit better, but over time, the tape slips when it's warm out and you get a sticky mess on your eyepieces. Thank God for Goo Gone. I wish Nikon would pay attention to their Customers and fix the problem.

Question:	does it come with a case and a harness, if not what are the costs
Answer:	I have focused at about 10 foot. My use is mostly about 100 feet.
Question:	what is the difference (if any) between monarch 7 and monarch 7 atb, thanks
Answer:	Works great in low light ...night vision is ok ....great product 4 price
Question:	What is the country of manufacture
Answer:	I think they would be good at a concert. I use them to zoom in one players at baseball games. I like the quality and they fit in my pocket. I've used better but they were much bigger and more expensive. This smaller binoculars has replaced a bigger one. I have not tried these at night or under dim lights.
Question:	Product description reads discontinued, does anyone know why and what is the warranty in these
Answer:	They are straight up trying to lie. In description magnification is 10 times. 30*60 is a lie to get you to buy this crap thinking it has 30 times magnification.

User questions & answers

Question:	what lens cover do u guys got? i received with only eye lens cover. no object lense cover
Answer:	It's a SOFT case and doesn't appear to have any heavy padding inside, although the lining is a spongy material. I wouldn't call it 'shockproof'. It depends on from how high a distance it is dropped or how hard it is bumped. For normal use, it's okay. I wouldn't put any high-end equipment in something like this. Works for me though.
Question:	How much do they weigh
Answer:	The internal dimensions: 42mm case is 16.1x12.2x5.5 cm(6.34x4.80x2.16 inch), 50mm case is 19.0x14.0x6.1 cm(7.48x5.51x2.40 inch), Manual measurement may lead to some errors, hope helps.
Question:	What kind of strap does this come with? Is it the nikon embroidered one
Answer:	Choose a smaller case unless you are going to put a lot of accessories in the case with the binoculars.
Question:	DO they fold
Answer:	Yes, absolutely it does! One of our reviews even mentions how nice this feature is and we are grateful to the customer who mentioned it. Thank you for bringing this to our attention that no pic is currently shoring this. We will adjust the listing so this is visible.

User questions & answers

Question:	I am near sighted and wear glasses. Does this have a focus relief to adjust so I do not have to wear my glasses when using them
Answer:	Yes, but you would have to travel on a spacecraft about 650 million miles closer to Saturn. Or use 50X telescope from Earth.
Question:	What is there close focusing distance
Answer:	I'm looking at the box (I just got it for fathers day today). It has "Tripod adaptable for a stable viewing platform by using the optional tripod adapter". You have to buy that separately. The directions even show how to do it. Amazon has the adapter shown (Nikon Adapter 7650). It's kind of spendy, but from what i've read, it's just a standard 1/4"-20 mount- just about any of those will work. not sure where some of the other answers are getting their info.
Question:	What does fog proof mean
Answer:	According to the specs, it's 3.05 or 3.06 pounds. Assume it's 3, since .05 or .06 pounds is about an ounce.
Question:	Are these fog/waterproof
Answer:	The first number is the power of the lens, that is how much it will magnify the image. The second number represents the diameter of the lens in mm. They work together to calculate a number called the "exit pupil" or "exit ratio". Take the lens size and divide it by the power to get this number. The higher the number, the brighter the image. For example, 10x50 will give an exit ratio of 5.0, 8x42 would be 5.25, 10x42 would be 4.2. In my opinion, the exit ratio is more important than the power. My favorite binoculars are 8x50 (6.25) but I also just bought 10x50 as a gift who is delighted with that configuration. Stay away from high-power binoculars. They, for me, are too hard to keep steady due to the high magnification.I hope this helps.-Norm

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the "near focus" of these binoculars? In other words, what's the closest to the object being viewed at which these will focus sharply
Answer:	The Nikon ProStaff 8x42 will focus sharp at 3 meters or about 9 feet 10 inches.
Question:	Are these fogproof
Answer:	Not sure what you mean by "Are these fogproof." Nikon advertises these Nikon 16030 binoculars as "waterproof" so I would think that condensation forming on the binocular will not result in damage. Will the lens fog? Absolutely yes, as will any cold surface in contact with atmospheric water vapor. When water vapor in the atmosphere contacts a cold surface (or cold binocular) the vapor cools and condenses into liquid water assuming certain conditions having to do with temperature and pressure are met. To reduce "fog" on the lens keep your binocular warm, inside your jacket if possible.
Question:	Is it really 4.8 oz or 19.9 oz, waterproof/fogproof, 413 ft/1,000 yd FOV
Answer:	They are 19.9 oz. I have had no issues with fogging and the ratio is correct. I hope this helps. They are the best binoculars I’ve had.
Question:	Do these binoculars come with there own carrying case
Answer:	they come with lens caps, not a carrying case

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this binocualars appropriate for watching birds and wildlife in Alaska
Answer:	Perfect! I have been told the Nikon lenses are the best and these are remarkably clear. The pair I bought are used to watch wildlife too and they will not disappoint. I was followed by a Steller eagle everday on my walks and she was so big I didn't need binoculars. Now I can see every feather! Best of luck in finding some great wildlife!
Question:	Does it come with a case and lens protectors
Answer:	Yes, but’s its a bit lacking. The soft sided case will protect against scratches, and will provide very good protection of the 4 outer lenses should you lose the well designed lens caps...but drop them from not even a table top height and they can get a devastating crack or complete snap off!! considering the quality of the binoculars (5 stars) I would expect something that offers more protection. I’ve had Minolta and other Nikons and the and the industry’s standards have gotten worse....Can’t they bring back the original hard cases?? And bring them back without a huge fee?
Question:	I know nothing about binoculars. Am looking for small,l lightweight to watch granddaughter at indoor gymnastics meets. They move all around
Answer:	these binoculars magnify things 10x greater than your normal vision. For an indoor gymnastics event I would look at something in the 3x - 8x magnification the 42 refers to the field of view. This might be okay for a gym depending on where you are sitting and size of the gym.
Question:	What is the difference between the 8x42 or 10x
Answer:	The first number; that is the 8 or the 10 refers to the magnification value. So, with a 10x42 you can bring things closer than with an 8x42. The 42 refers to the aperture or the size of the opening in the front element. The larger the aperture, the more light and things appear brighter. Choosing really depends on what you're using the binocular for and in what kind of light.

User questions & answers

Question:	Where are they made
Answer:	Yes. You can use a TV as a monitor using HDMI, but it's not always an ideal solution. Computer monitors are optimized for computer use while TV's are optimized for watching video. There are many factors that effect how well a TV will work as a computer monitor. I recommend doing a quick Internet search on the subject before making a commitment.
Question:	Hi is this coming with a carrying case, neck strap lens caps
Answer:	Yes, cassettes do stop at the end if you're playing or recording. You have to stop them yourself if you're rewinding or fast-forwarding. There isn't an auto-reverse function, so you do have to remove the tape and flip it over to play the other side.
Question:	does it come with a regular strap
Answer:	Yes. Radio stations come in clear. I'm happy with my purchase.
Question:	What is the country of manufacture (Made in
Answer:	Yes. It comes with a plug.
Question:	Can the harness be attached to a nikon 7239 action 7x50 ex extreme all-terain binocular
Answer:	I just got it, so this is based on a very small sample, but I'd say it wasn't that good - skipped a fair amount on media that plays well on other devices.
Question:	Does this have attachments that will make this work with a Nikon DSLR

Answer:	Camera shops, maybe. Or by calling Nikon directly.
Question:	are these binoculars good for whale watching? Buying them as a gift
Answer:	They will work.
Question:	what tripod would be good for this
Answer:	I have a Promaster 6400 tripod and a Manfrotto monopod. Both work great especially while zooming in.
Question:	Can you see the planes, such as rings of Saturn and Jupiter moons
Answer:	Yes you can observed Jupiter moons very easy. Saturn’s rings are slightly visibles but you need to used the maximum zoom an try to not move the binoculars (need a tripode). You will not see the details of the rings. Also you can observe the Orion Nebula. Earth moon details are very easy to see.
