Nikon Corporation introduces its 7×15DCF binoculars.
The 7×15DCF is a sister model to the 5×15DCF stylish titanium (Ti) body roof (dach) type binoculars. This model has been developed to meet the requests of users who appreciate the finest optics of the 5×15DCF and require a higher magnification at the same time.
Both 7×15DCF and 5×15DCF binoculars offer a high-reflection silver coating for brighter images, and phase correction coated prisms for high resolution.
The Nikon 7×15DCF binoculars' qualities make them ideal for a wide range of uses --- outdoors, at theaters, concerts and museums, and for business, to see projected images at convention halls, for example.
