Nikon Releases New Stabilized Binocular Series

  • Ultra Compact and Lightweight Binoculars Feature 12 Hour Battery Life and Nikon Optical Stabilization System

Melville, New York, October 9th, 2024

Today, #Nikon Inc. announced the release of the new stabilized binocular series with two new models that feature a compact, portable design while incorporating an original #stabilized function to provide a clear and stable image. This original stabilization system in the new 10 times and 12 times models reduces vibrations caused by hand movement by approximately 80 percent, letting users view distant objects such as birds and other wildlife, sporting events, concerts and landmarks clearly and comfortably.

These new stabilized binoculars weigh only 13.9 ounces (stabilized 12 by 25 S model), making it comfortable and easy to track and view subjects for long periods with minimal fatigue of the eyes or arms. For extended viewing, they are powered by 2 AA #batteries, providing up to an impressive 12 hours of battery life.

“Recently there has been a surge in popularity for stabilized binoculars, and Nikon’s expertise in optics uniquely positions us to give all types of customers an extremely appealing option”, said Jeff Abler, VP of Sales and NPS, Nikon Inc. 

Primary features of the Nikon stabilized Binocular Series

  • Stylish, compact and comfortable design is extremely small and lightweight, while also having the ability to fold for maximum portability and easy packing.
  • Uses 2 convenient and readily available AA size batteries, for approximately 12 hours of battery life.
  • Stabilized Technology reduces vibrations caused by hand movement by approximately 80 Prozent, making it easy to track and view subjects.
  • Bright and clear field of view, with a Multilayer Coating applied to all lenses and prisms while high reflectivity silver alloy mirror coating is applied on the reflective surface of the auxiliary prism for maximum brightness.
  • Auto power shut off function prevents unnecessary battery consumption if left powered on. This function is engaged after approximately 60 minutes, letting the user focus on the view, while minimizing the need to press a button repeatedly to activate the stabilization.
  • Ergonomic design fits comfortably in the hand, with a large focusing ring that enables quick focusing.
  • Turn and slide rubber eyecups with multi click facilitate easy positioning of the eyes at the correct eyepoint.
