Binoculars

Lightweight Champion of Dawn & Dusk Even with an uncontested heritage of all-conditions optical performance the all-new MONARCH 5 further elevates its game with improved agility and advanced low light brilliance. By shaving nearly an ounce of weight from its rugged frame the new MONARCH 5 is more athletic than ever while the addition of Nikon ED glass lenses puts it in a class of its own for battling darkness with sharp high-contrast views. Product Description Nikon’s ED Glass Lenses The Difference Is Clear All MONARCH 5 binoculars are now built with Nikon’s legendary ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass lenses which correct chromatic aberrations across the furthest limits of the visible light range and effectively compensate for color fringing. Even when observing objects that would make chromatic aberration the most apparent – such as adjacent whites and blacks – the images will maintain superior contrast and resolution thanks to the ED glass lenses. The improved resolution also provides brighter more natural looking images making the MONARCH 5 a serious contender to be your “go-to” binocular for years to come. Enjoy Comfortable Viewing Nikon’s High-Eyepoint Design Nikon has manufactured the MONARCH 5 binoculars as well as many other of its optics with a high-eyepoint design. This provides a clear field of view for everyone even when the user is wearing eyeglasses with sufficient space between the user’s brow and the binocular’s eyecups. Extremely Portable Now Lighter Than Ever Before Almost a full ounce lighter than its predecessors the new MONARCH 5 is even easier to take with you on your next outing. Its small size combined with a sleek easy-to-grip body design makes it the ultimate binocular to carry with you. Rich Accurate Colors Dielectric High-Reflective Multilayer Prism Coating Applied to all lenses and prism surfaces this technique provides almost the same brightness as that perceived by the naked eye and clear high-contrast images that display accurate color reproduction. Greater Light Transmission Fully Multicoated Eco-Glass Lenses Multilayer coatings which provide an even higher light transmittance across the entire visible light spectrum are applied to all of the lens and prism surfaces that transmit light. This minimizes the loss of light due to reflection thereby ensuring a more natural clearer view.

APC STABILIZED 30Stabilized Optics INTELLIGENT OBSERVATION The KITE 10x30 and 12x30 APC stabilized binoculars bring you the latest technology in binocular image stabilisation.There are other stabilized binoculars in the market, but none of them compare to this. One very important difference is the correction angle. Most of today’s stabilized binoculars offer a correction angle from 0.5° to 1°. In other words, a correction of 0.8 to 1.7 meters at a distance of 100 meters. Trembling of the hand, observing on a windy day or being out of breath after hiking, will easily cause image instability that is larger than these values. The KITE APC stabilized binoculars feature a new technology that allows the instrument to correct the image stability by 3°, or 5.3 meters at a distance of 100 meters, or 53 meters at 1000 meters. In other words, 6 times more. This will allow perfectly stable images not only from a trembling hand, but even from a driving car or a boat in strong sea. This very compact sized and light instrument is also packed with intelligent features. The electronics are powered by two AA-batteries, the most common battery size worldwide, and will make sure the instrument runs for 36 hours. But to make sure not a second of those 36 hours is lost, the KITE APC binoculars are equipped with sensors that will automatically put the electronics to sleep mode when you are not viewing. The APC function (angle power control) detects positioning. When the instrument comes in vertical position, hanging from your neck or standing on a surface, it goes to sleep. From the second it comes to a more horizontal position, when viewing, the stabilisation kicks in. No switching of buttons, no accidental battery drain. A timer function makes sure it switches off completely after 90 minutes, no matter the position. And a low battery indicator will tell you well in time when new batteries are needed. The APC stabilized is ergonomically shaped, and features a 4 cm long focus wheel that can be easily operated with 3 fingers. Although the APC stabilized looks different, it is just as easy to use as any pair of standard binoculars. The essence of this instrument is of course with its stabilizing capability. Optically it is on the same performance level as the KITE PETREL, however under any circumstance of instability, whether from your own hands, heavy breathing, windy conditions, etc… these binoculars will outrun the best binoculars in the world, and will give you the image and details invisible to any standard binocular. Try it to believe it! The stabilized binoculars are equipped with KITE’s APC system (angle power control). Without having to switch the button, it will put the stabilizing electronics to sleep mode when the instrument is in rest position (hanging from the neck) , and automatically activate the unit when you start observing again. This results in a huge increase of battery life and comfort of use. With its 2 AA batteries, the stabilization mechanism can be active for up to 36 hours. The APC STABILIZED binoculars are also perfectly usable without activating the stabilization mechanism. Regardless of its position (rest or active), after 90 mintues the instrument will automatically switch off for energy saving. low battery indicator Specifications 10X30 Magnification 10x Objective lens diameter (mm) 30 Exit pupil (mm) 3 Min. close focus (m) 2.6 Field of view (m/1000m) 96 Field of view (degrees) 5.5 Eye relief (mm) 17 Interpupillary distance (mm) 74-54 Height (mm) 165 Max width (mm) 133 Min width folded (mm) 113 Weight (g) 615 Twilight factor 17.3 Dioptric compensation (+/-) 3 Waterproof IPX 7 Gas filled Yes Functional temperature -10°C / 50°C Light transmission (%) 86 Warranty (years)* 30 * Warranty electronics (years) 2 Stabilisation correction angle (degrees) 3 Battery life (hours) 36 Angle power control (APC) Yes Sleep timer (minutes) Yes (90) Low battery indicator Yes Batteries (not included) 2x AA Code K283605
