A variety of styles and features appeal to a wide range of users from students of nature to concertgoers. Outstanding light transmission through fully-coated optics ensures bright, crisp clear viewing. Standard-size models feature InstaFocus® for fast and easy focus on a moving target. The compact porro prism series provides great durability and performance in a smaller size.

Nikon Action Zoom 7-15x35


A great bang-for-the-buck porro prism binocular, the Action series by Nikon feature knobby rubber armored housings. Their high-refraction prisms feature wide fields of view. And every Action model has a tripod adapter threading for easy extended glassing from a stationary position (requires optional tripod adapter #7650). The zooming 7-15x35 model is intended for both lowlight viewing at the shorter end of the zoom as well as distant observations in better conditions.Minimize


Steiner Merlin 10x42


Named for a small bird of prey that relies on speed and stealth to take its quarry, the Merlin binocular features similar traits. The Merlin's Fast-Focus center-focus system enables users to view the entire focus range with less than one full turn of the focus wheel. Therefore, users can zero in on their subjects quickly and easily, with very little movement, allowing them to observe wildlife with little risk of detection. Yet the precise focus wheel allows for razor sharp adjustments and holds views in focus for as long as the user desires. Water-resistant and encased in a dark, non-reflective, rubber-armored body, the Merlin can be used outdoors under any conditions. The earth-toned armoring actually camouflages the binocular to a bird's eye. Weighing under 24 ounces, the binocular is easy to carry on its own padded neck strap, or in a pack or jacket pocket.Minimize

Great views are now easier to find with these slim, stylish metallic silver binoculars.

And powerful lenses complete with UV protection bring impressive sights right before your eyes in stunningly clear, crisp fashion. Minimize
