The Nikon Monarch 10x42 DCF is a welcomed update to the Monarch line of binoculars. Designed with the outdoors in mind, the Monarch boasts a tough, fiberglass-reinforced polycarbonate resin body that will withstand the elements for years to come. Nitrogen filled internals and O-ring seals prevent "fogging up" and make the Monarchs waterproof to 3.3 feet / 1 meter. The Dielectric multilayer coating on the prisms is what really makes these binoculars stand out from the crowd. The coating increases reflectivity of the prism surfaces and thereby increases total light transmission across the entire visible light range which results in more vibrant, natural colors, better depth of field, and better low light acuity. Make sure you take the Monarchs along on your next trip so you dont miss any detail of natures beauty. |
