Champion of dawn & dusk.

Some of the most exciting moments happen in the magical light of dawn and dusk. Monarch M5 binoculars are built for these moments. Large 42mm objectives with a generous field of view gather more of the scene and more of what you're out there to experience. Adjustable turn-and-slide eyecups with long eye relief make these the most comfortable Monarch binoculars yet. Nikon’s renowned ED glass reduces chromatic aberration while the dielectric high-reflective multilayer prism coatings ensure superior light transmittance; resulting in brighter images and more natural colors. In addition, phase-corrected coatings are also applied to prism surfaces to increase image resolution. The result? Better, more clear and brighter optics to take your adventure to new heights.

Three magnification choices.

Monarch M5 binoculars come in three magnification choices to suit your needs: 8x for the widest view, 10x for a happy medium between magnification and field of view, and 12x for getting as close to your subject as possible. All models have 42mm objectives (front lenses) to gather abundant light to provide bright and clear images regardless of magnification choice.

ED glass. The difference is clear.

Used in many premium Nikon optics, from camera lenses to spotting scopes, Nikon’s ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass virtually eliminates common distortion, chromatic aberrations and color fringing. The result? Clear high-resolution views in nearly any lighting condition.
