Nocs Highlights

No-Matter-What Lifetime Warranty

Phase Coated Prism

Designed for Max Grip And Protection

Waterproof + Fogproof

SUPREME RESOLUTION

Ultra Wide Field of View

A 429 foot field of view (8x @1000yds) that is distortion free across the field. This provides a new level of peripheral vision to a binocular in this class. It’s as if the binocular housing simply disappears from sight while in use.

EXCELLENT CONTRAST AND SHARPNESS

Phase Coated BaK4 Prism

Multilayer phase-correction coatings applied to the prism surfaces ensure accurate image contrast and avoid unwanted interference effects. While all our optics have fully multi coated lenses, the Pro Issue extends these coatings to the prisms in order to maximize brightness and clarity from edge to edge.

EXTREMELY BRIGHT AND COLOR CORRECT

Fully Multi Coated Lens Array

Every surface of every piece of glass inside has multiple coatings of broadband anti-reflective coating. This is key to providing a crisp and color correct image, no matter the time of day… or night.

SEE IT ALL

Tight Close Focus

With a close focus of less than 2M (6ft.), these binoculars fill the field with the closest details you see, whether a butterfly or a bee in a nearby tree. Not to mention, these are excellent for amateur astronomy, if you were wondering about that.

Definitely NOT ordinary!

I've searched for the perfect binoculars and it was worth it! I want STRENGTH and STYLE in a pair of binoculars and I found BOTH! Did I mention how great the texture ifor a secure grip? I am SO HAPPY with my purchase! Now, if I had one complaint, it would be color choices BUT they make up for it in BEAUTIFUL carrying straps with vibrant color patterns.

Purchased for a future trip

These seem awesome. Although I have yet to use the product, other than opening the box and looking out the window with them, everything was crystal clear and we are looking forward to putting these to use next summer on a road trip from Texas to Alberta, Canada and back. ��

Upgrade from 10x25 worth it

I bought a Nocs monocular and pair of 10x25 binoculars a couple of years ago on a bit of a whim, and have used them intermittently. Recently, I have been doing more birdwatching and wanted to upgrade my binoculars. I did minimal research but most articles seemed to recommend 8x42 binoculars for birding. I purchased the 8x42 pro issue and they are incredible. Certainly can tell the difference in clarity, particularly in lower light.
