Nikon introduces the PROSTAFF P7 Binoculars
June 9, 2022
TOKYO - Nikon Vision Co., Ltd., (Nikon Vision), a subsidiary of Nikon Corporation (Nikon), is pleased to announce the release of the new PROSTAFF P7 binocular series. All models have been redesigned with a new exterior and are even more advanced than the previous PROSTAFF 7S binoculars which have gained a high reputation.
The PROSTAFF P7 series binoculars provide a wide apparent field of view (62.9° for 10x42, 62.6° for 8x30) that offers spectacular viewing, and employ a dioptre adjustment ring locking system to prevent unintentional rotation.
Multilayer coating is applied to all lenses and prisms. Dielectric high-reflective multilayer prism coating and phase correction coating are applied to the roof prisms. All of this effectively combines to deliver a bright field of view plus natural colour fidelity. Oil- and water-repellent coating applied to the objective lens and eyepieces allows smudges like fingerprints to be easily wiped off.
Nikon PROSTAFF P7 binoculars are ideal for all kinds of outdoor activities, including bird- and nature-watching, sports events and hiking.
