Nikon Binoculars WX 7x50 IF (64462)

Experience the best of Nikon’s optical heritage with the WX series astronomy binoculars, designed for passionate stargazers who want to explore the night sky in extraordinary detail. These binoculars stand out for their exceptionally wide field of view and advanced optical technology.

Outstanding Optical Quality

The WX series delivers sharp, clear images across an ultra-wide field of view. Thanks to the Field Flattener Lens System, you get edge-to-edge clarity, so star clusters and galaxies appear crisp throughout the entire view. Each tube includes three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements, which minimize chromatic aberration and enhance contrast and resolution. All lenses and prisms feature a high-quality multilayer coating, ensuring high light transmission and lifelike color. Abbe-Koenig prisms are used for superior brightness, and phase correction coatings maintain high contrast and sharpness.

Exceptional Brightness and Immersive Viewing

With Abbe-Koenig prisms, these binoculars provide outstanding brightness, making deep-sky observation possible. The phase-correction coating on the prisms ensures consistently sharp and high-contrast images. The super-wide field of view creates an immersive experience, giving you the sensation of floating among the stars.

Wide Field of View and Comfortable Design

The WX series combines a super-wide field of view with long eye relief, making them comfortable for all users, including those who wear glasses. For example, the WX 7x50 IF model offers an apparent field of view of 66.6° and an eye relief of 17.7 mm, so you can enjoy both comfort and spectacular views.

Built for Durability and Long Sessions

The binoculars feature a magnesium alloy body that is both robust and lightweight. Turn-and-slide rubber eyecups with six click-stops allow for precise adjustment to your preferred eye position. The binoculars are waterproof and nitrogen-filled to prevent fogging, ensuring reliable performance in various conditions. A tripod adapter is included for stable, hands-free viewing during extended observations.
