Nikon 10x25 Stabilized S Binoculars

The new Nikon STABILIZED binocular series. These models realise a compact design while incorporating the STABILIZED function. They have a long battery life of about 12 hours with two AA-size batteries, so can be used for extended periods. The line-up includes magnifications of 10x and 12x, allowing you to select according to their intended purposes.

As the image-stabilisation binoculars market has gained popularity in recent years, Nikon developed these new binoculars with an original image-stabilised system. This STABILIZED Technology* reduces vibrations caused by hand movement by approx. 80%.

*The effect of STABILIZED Technology: Vibrations of the image in the viewfinder caused by hand movement (sinusoidal waves) are reduced to 1/5 or less (Based on Nikon’s measurement standards).

Nikon’s unique image-stabilised system allows targets to be tracked easily and comfortably. You will no longer become stressed or fatigued, even when following a subject and concentrating on watching it.

The Nikon STABILIZED series models are ideal for viewing concerts, sport events, and for observing nature.
