A Great Name, A Great Product
These binoculars provide great magnification, excellent resolution, and superb clarity. From observing Big Horn Sheep in the Rocky Mountains to identifying birds in the back yard, these have performed perfectly and are a pleasure to use. Focus is fast and smooth.
Pros:
- Close Focus
- Compact
- Quality Lenses
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Poor lens covers

Nikon SE 10x42 SE
These are considered the best view of any 10x made by many reviewers. See Better View Desired, etc. These are truly world class and compete well with the $1600 binoculars. I was surprised by the size, they are smaller and lighter than I imagined but the case is a bit large.

Compared to other top of the range binoculars, I would say that the Nikon EDG 10x42 binoculars are priced pretty well. If you take this into account with their excellent, class equalling but not class beating optical performance and their quality construction with all the features you would expect...

Nikon Monarch Binocs are made well made, work great and dont break the bank
I was looking for a good birding Binocular and really wanted a Steiner Predator set, but settled on these for the better price. I did reviews from several sites for the best birding binoculars and the Nikon Monarch rated in the top ten on most sites.

Nikon SE 10x42 CF
Cons: Admiring the classic look of a Swarovski Habicht 10x40 W we turned a blind eye to several slip-ups of that device and its average quality/price ratio. In the case of the Nikon SE we don't lose the classic look either - all those who like old, good Porro constructions will be as much enchanted...
Pros:
- solid construction
- handy and very comfortable to hold
- very high transmission
- excellent whiteness reproduction
- low chromatic aberration
- very low coma
- slight astigmatism
- sharp image practically up to the edge of the field of vision
- negligible light fall-off at the edge
- slight flares
- high...

Nikon Monarch ATB Realtree 10x42
Good Product. Not cheap, but not going to drain the bank account either. Lightweight and not noticeable when you are wearing them. Make sure to keep the warranty card and the recipt should you need to send them in for repairs.
Pros:
- These binoculars are light, compact
- They are crisp and clear and have the adjustable eyecups for those of you wearing glasses
- The price was right, they were not cheap, but they aren't $1800 either.
Cons:
- Couple of things I have had problems with
- I may be a little rough on my equiptment, but it gets used a lot
- I have had issues with the twist out eyecups
- If they get dirty, or knocked around a little bit, they stuck either up or down, and had a slight angle to them.
