Nikon Prostaff 5 Fieldscope 82

The Nikon PROSTAFF 5 82 is a remarkable spotting scope renowned for its simplicity and superior performance. With an 82 mm diameter, this telescope offers a solid mechanical design and water resistance, coupled with impeccable optics from the esteemed Japanese brand, Nikon. Whether you're a passionate birdwatcher or an avid wildlife enthusiast on field trips, this spotting scope is an unparalleled companion. It also holds great appeal for hunters who enjoy observing antlers.

Compared to the earlier RA III models, the bodies of the PROSTAFF 5 telescopes are approximately 20% lighter. This reduction in weight enhances portability without compromising on functionality. The newly developed glasses incorporated in the scope effectively minimize chromatic aberration at the edges of the field of view. They also provide a substantial offset of the exit pupil, delivering excellent comfort during extended observation sessions.

The PROSTAFF 5 spotting scope is available as a telescope body, offering three types of glasses: two with fixed focal lengths and one with zoom capabilities.
