The Nikon Monarch HG 8x42 Binocular.

Every moment you spend birding deserves the advantage of extraordinary binocular performance, driving Nikon engineers to model the optical system of the Monarch HG Binoculars around its ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass and high-quality multilayer coating that’s applied to all lenses and prisms for brighter, higher resolution views. The Nikon Monarch HG Binoculars were built from the ground up to achieve class-ruling optical performance, exceptional handling, and unrivaled ruggedness, which means you will truly enjoy using these binoculars while birding!

Nikon’s Field Flattener Lens System works in conjunction with the Monarch HG 8x42 Binocular’s extraordinarily wide field of view of 435 feet at 1,000 yards to provide a sharp, clear view to the lens peripheries. The high-quality multilayer coating is applied to all lenses and prisms, and a dielectric high-reflective multilayer coating is applied to the BaK-4 roof prisms to achieve an exceptionally bright view, provided by up to 92 percent light transmission, and natural color fidelity – all so important when birding.

Delivering the finest performance among Nikon’s Monarch series, the Nikon Monarch HG Binoculars are built with a compact, comfortable magnesium alloy body that is lightweight but extremely durable to protect the advanced optical system by providing optimum strength, impact resiliency, and weight reduction. The slim body profile of the Monarch HG is further enhanced with rubberized panels to provide a sure grip in any weather or environmental conditions.

The Nikon Monarch HG 8x42 Binocular’s external lenses are also treated with a scratch-resistant coating, and these binoculars provide waterproof and fogproof performance. Ergonomic features include twist-up eyecups with detents, a locking diopter, and a wide interpupillary range of 56mm to 74mm – and the close focus distance is just 6½ feet, which can be very helpful when viewing birds at home, at work, or in the field.

From eyecups to objective lenses, the new patriarch of the flagship Monarch binocular family pushes binocular performance to higher levels through design, technology, and 20 years of Monarch ATB-building experience.
