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 it possible to view the rings of Saturn with these binoculars
Answer:	Was expecting a harness based on the prior answers ... mine came with a strap, not a harness
Question:	Do these have a tripod mount and if so, what kind
Answer:	Nikon's "ATB" designation in its binocular line stands for "All Terrain Binocular." These binoculars are designated as such because they are waterproof, fog-proof and shockproof by design.All of Nikon's Monarch series binoculars use the ATB designation in addition to a few other models. The original Monarch ATB was perhaps Nikon's most popular and best-selling model worldwide. As of 2014, Nikon had discontinued this model, replacing it with the newer Monarch 3, 5, 7 and X models.
Question:	What is the items wight
Answer:	The box states made in China. These are awesome ones though, very high quality. For a little less money the Vanguard Endeavor ED ones like the 10.5x45 are very nice. A bit heavier and also made in China.
Question:	What is the difference between 10x50, 8x42, 10x42 & 10-22x
Answer:	Just got the Monarch 7 10x42mm. Included was a warranty card that states it is a lifetime warranty by Nikon. Purchased from Helix Camera so I am guessing two years ago it was 25 years but now it is lifetime. The Nikon USA site gives the warranty as lifetime also. By the way, this is only honored if purchased from an authorized Nikon dealer (Helix is an authorized dealer). Purchased on Amazon from a dealer who was not an authorized Nikon dealer. The box had the serial number covered and inside the box there was a card saying the warranty was only for 1 year. Returned it and purchased from Helix for the full USA warranty. Cost a few dollars more, but piece of mind for an expensive binocular was worth the few dollars more to me. You can check authorized dealers on the Nikon site under Shopping Help and then Nikon Authorized Dealers.

Question:	what is Bak
Answer:	Bak4 is a higher quality glass used in binocular prisms. This is a barium crown glass. It is a higher quality refractive index glass than the more commonly used Bk7.

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:	The specs say this product weighs 4.8 oz but some of the reviews complain of the weight. Just how much do these binoculars weigh
Answer:	Weighed in at 36.68 oz and another 5.5 oz for the case and strap. (approx 2.6 lbs all in)
Question:	On the product information section it lists batteries: 1 Lithium ion batteries required. What is this for
Answer:	An error. Batteries are only required for image stabilization, this binocular is not that type.
Question:	Will the 7245 be good for bright moon or star observations. There has been some reviews that state the lenses will distort on a full moon
Answer:	Actually I use these to observe the moon and they are wonderful. I certainly do not notice any distortion and can see many dozens if not hundreds of moon craters and the image is bright and razor sharp. I can also easily see the Galilean moons of Jupiter with these. Jupiter is visible in the early nighttime right now. The Galilean moons can be clearly seen with these binoculars hand held but for a steady image I highly recommend a heavy tripod with a binocular adapter. The 7245 of course has built in threading for a tripod binoculars adapter. I was so surprised that such celestial objects are clearly visible with these. Highly recommended.
Question:	I'm looking for a binocular that is exceptionally good in low light to watch feeding owls at dusk and after. How do these 10x 50's perform
Answer:	Good low-light performance is almost entirely dependent on the magnification and diameter of the lens. From this you can derive exit pupil diameter and twilight factor which are both important for low-light viewing. These binoculars have an exit pupil of 5mm (50mm lens / 10x magnification), which is close to as wide as human pupils get (~7mm in total darkness). The twilight factor for 10x50mm binoculars are about as good as it gets while still having the magnification and size low enough to avoid excessive shaking of the image from your hand movement. Many people will try to talk about light transmission as important for low-light, but keep in mind that almost all decent Porro lens binoculars that cost more than $100 or so will have light transmission greater than 80% across most of the visible range. The difference between 80% and e.g. 95% light transmission has a rather small effect on perceived brightness, and really shouldn't be an important factor in choosing your optics. Blue light transmission is more important in low light conditions, and some binoculars have significantly lower or higher transmission in that region of the light spectrum, but still these binoculars have been spec'd at >75% transmission for blue. Keep in mind that the difference in brightness between 95% and 75% transmission is approximately equivalent to the brightness difference between one minute and the next minute during the time between sunset and dusk.

User questions & answers

Question:	Do the binoculars come with a bag
Answer:	Just bought this, got the bag and pen, no lens cloth though.
Question:	where are these manufactured
Answer:	Our box was labeled "Made in China." We prefer to buy products not made in China; however, based on what I was able to find, the only binoculars not made in China were beyond our budget.
Question:	What’s the difference in nikon prostaff 3s and prostaff 7s
Answer:	It is basically the coating on the 7s, phase correction coating on the prisms. The 3s are a little lighter than the 7s. The difference is negligible, there is a greater difference between the Prostaff and the Monarch. I love my Prostaff 3s I recently purchased.
Question:	My eyes are close together so how close together will this get
Answer:	I too have close set eyes and it adjusts great... Can even make it closer than I need. I love my Nikon. I use it every day for star watching and birding. It is the binocs that I have been looking for.
