Nikon 10x30 Monarch HG Binoculars

Share:

Taking its place among Nikon's flagship series, the 10x30 Monarch HG Binocular is an ideal alternative to the larger 42mm models for those who need to move fast and light, but don't want to compromise performance. Like all HG models, the 10x30 is engineered with a powerful magnification for observing distant subjects such as large game or marker buoys and complementary technologies that produce an optic built to perform in all light conditions and survive the harshest environments.

First of these technologies is the use of lead- and arsenic-free extra-low dispersion (ED) glass in the lens elements to correct chromatic and spherical aberrations. Next are phase-corrected and dielectric-coated roof prisms, which further limit internal light loss and interference and improve image contrast. The optical path is fully multi-coated with anti-reflection coatings, which increase light transmission, image contrast, and sharpness and provide true color rendition. Finally is the use of Nikon's field-flattener lens system, which eliminates the distortion common at the edges of the lenses, producing crisp details along the far periphery of the wide field of view. This all translates to bright and clear, high-contrast images with accurate color across the spacious field of view with a reduced appearance of visible hand shake—especially at low light such as early morning and late evening, and under heavily overcast skies.

The chassis is built with a short bridge design, which provides more gripping surface and helps to reduce the overall weight—this is especially important on an optic that measures just 4.7" in length. Made to survive use outdoors, the optical tubes are nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed to make them not only fogproof when moving between extreme temperature changes, but also waterproof and submersible. The exterior has textured, rubberized panels that protect against knocks and drops and offers a slip-resistant grip for sure handling in cold and wet conditions. Nikon includes tethered objective lens covers to ensure they cannot be lost easily and are ready for use at a moment's notice.

Engineered for durability and performance, the 30mm Monarch HG is an excellent choice for those who are looking to reduce the size and weight of their binocular without compromising performance.

Optical Performance

High 10x magnification draws distant subjects in close for detailed observations on land and sea
Smaller 30mm objective lens diameter reduces the overall form factor and weight versus larger objective models without significantly compromising light gathering or performance
Roof prism light path helps to maintain a slim profile for easier and more comfortable handling
Extra-low dispersion glass reduces chromatic and spherical aberrations for increased contrast and improved color rendition and sharpness without distortion across the entire field of view
Highly reflective dielectric prism coatings minimize internal light loss to maintain image brightness and improve contrast and clarity
Phase-corrected prisms eliminate internal interference in the light path to improve contrast and resolution
Anti-reflection, fully multi-coated optics produce bright, high-resolution images
Field-flattener lens system corrects lens-edge distortion for clearer views at the edge of the field of view
Wide 62° apparent angle of view produces an immersive observational experience with less disorientation when used on rough or rolling seas and minimized appearance of visible hand shake common when holding high-power optics
Generous 362' field of view at 1000 yards

Use and Handling

Short bridge provides a solid and stable platform for the internal focusing mechanism
Large slip-resistant center focusing wheel is easy to manipulate, even while wearing gloves
Locking right-eye diopter allows users to firmly set adjustment to compensate for individual optical prescription and improve focus sharpness
Broad 56-74mm interpupillary distance adjustment range enables easy use by a wide variety of users
Twist-up rubber eyecups for comfortable use with or without eyewear
Tripod mountable with optional adapter enables hands-free use and reduces vibrations and arm fatigue
15.2mm eye relief makes viewing more comfortable with less eyestrain, especially during long-duration glassing sessions
3mm exit pupil
