  • Presented by Nikon Canada and Nikon Sport Optics, watch Tony Beck - avid birder, world traveller and Nikon Canada Ambassador - as he uses the Nikon MONARCH 7 8x42 ATB to demonstrate how to properly adjust your binoculars and ensure an optimal experience when engaging in birding and wildlife viewing.
    As Tony explains in this video, there is no better way to explore the wonders of our world than through a great pair of binoculars. Much like the MONARCH 7, the best binoculars for birding are ones that are comfortable, sturdy, and provide a bright and clear view.

    For the Nikon Prostaff model, someone said to set the diopter, you pull the ring up the barrel towards the eyepiece and then focus. Once the focus is set, you push the ring back down. Is that accurate? (I wanted to check because that wasn't mentioned on this video).

    In Step 4, why did you have to use the right barrel adjustment knob to set the right eye focus? why wasn't the left barrel adjustment knob used to adjust the left eye focus but instead the central focus knob? it's just confusing.

    • @busman2050
      @busman2050 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      There is no left barrel focus knob, only on the right barrel is the focusing knob

    I just got a pair of Prostaff 7s 10x30 to through in the camera bag. Cannot for the life of me figure out how to attach the front covers to the strap. They are to separate caps and they each have a loop in them with a slit . I know they'll get lost in a heartbeat.

  • @oddjob7821
    @oddjob7821 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have a question. When I cover my right eye I can not see anything through the left lens(the caps are OFF) lol. I'm ok when I cover the left lens I can see through the right. What could be going on here?I do have a lazy left eye though maybe that's the problem. Any ideas?

    • @Drbirder
      @Drbirder 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      If your binoculars have the diopter in the right side,it's better to adjust the left side first and then adjust the right side with diopter.

    • @Drbirder
      @Drbirder 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends on which side diopter is , on the binoculars

    Hi. I wanted to buy binocular for traveling, supervision, bird watching, but I cannot choose model. Can you help me with choosing model of binocular? My budget 150-200$. Now I watch 2 brands. Nikon and Vortex. So, my questions: 1. Nikon Prostaff 7S or Vortex Diamondback? 2. Sizes and magnification, 8×42, 8×50, 10×42, 10×50 which one the better?

    • @alwaysanadventureinc
      @alwaysanadventureinc 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      If possible, try different pairs before buying. I recommend 8 X 42 Nikons. If size & weight is an issue, the new 8 X 30 Monarchs are a remarkable option - small, light, clear and with an excellent field of view, you can wear them all day long.

    Hello there. I'm watching from Turkey. I will take this model. Binoculars are very expensive in Turkey. I'm torn between the two models. Do you think Nikon Aculon 10x42 or Nikon prostaff 3s 10x42?

    • @Drbirder
      @Drbirder 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Aculon are cheaper , and porro prism model images will have a 3D effect to it , but they weigh almost 900 grams and are not truly waterproof on the other hand prostaff weigh lighter and have roof prism model therefore ergonomically easier to use , and also lenses are Multi coated , and waterproof but costlier than aculon.

    my problem is if i look carefully i can make my eye focus without touching the focus control on the binocular. it works most of the time if the focus is set around the optimum setting. so i have problem getting the "real" focus adjustment on the bino without straining my eyes to adjust.
    does it happens to somebody else?

    instead of putting your hand over the lens why not make it way less awkward and just put the lens cap over

    • @alwaysanadventureinc
      @alwaysanadventureinc 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Both methods are equally effective. I find placing my hand over the barrel opposite to the one being focused as being much less awkward. Besides, when you're doing this exercise in the field, lens caps might not be readily available. Another way to do this is by simply keeping the one eye open of the barrel being focused.

    Guys its a request pls don't buy Nikon Aculon A211 series from Flipkart I am a Plus customer and had very bad experience with their 8x42,7x50,10x50 series as the seller is Retailnet which is If i am correct its Flipkart itself and all these Binoculars were repaired as I was finding difficulty focussing and on further investigation by using mobile flashlight through the objective lense i could clearly see some white tape with glue on them, I spoke with Flipkart escalations even sent them the pictures of the same as a great brand like Nikon was being sold and user experience was being spoiled. However Flipkart dis not post my reveiw and Pictures sayin moderation failed so please when you buy do check for repairs as its not brand new even with seal. 🙏
