The 8x30 Monarch 7 Binocular from Nikon combines high-transmission optics with an ergonomic and weather-resistant housing to produce the image quality and easy handling typical of Monarch series binoculars. The 8x30 Monarch 7 has a 60° apparent viewing angle and is capable of focusing as close as 6.6'. Additionally, Its 15mm and twist-up eyecups with multiple click-stop positions help to create a comfortable viewing distance for almost any observer, making this set of glasses well-suited for most close to mid-range glassing activities.

This compact iteration of the Monarch features a fully multicoated extra-low dispersion (ED) lens system that transmits bright images with enhanced brightness and contrast. To preserve the image quality transmitted by these glass elements, Nikon also outfitted the Monarch 7 binocular with phase-correct roof prisms that are finished with a highly reflective dielectric multicoating. Resulting views rendered by the Monarch 7 optical path have lifelike color and are rich with detail.

Their 30mm objectives, open-bridge configuration, and fiberglass-polycarbonate housing with rubber armoring help to reduce the overall weight of the Monarch 7 without sacrificing ergonomics or functionality. A contoured body complements the non-slip rubber armoring, allowing the observer to maintain their grip even while wearing gloves or when conditions turn wet. The nitrogen-filled housing equips the Monarch 7 with the fogproofing and submersion tightness needed to endure years of service in a variety of conditions.
