Generous 50mm objective lenses gather lots of light, making these
binoculars an ideal choice when viewing conditions are dim, such as at
dawn or dusk. With 12x magnification, this model is an excellent choice
for long distance viewing or surveillance.

ED Objective Lenses

Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass virtually eliminates chromatic
aberration, also known as color fringing, a visual defect common in
binoculars. Nature DX ED delivers razor sharp images, even at the edges
of the field of view. ED glass is also known for producing images with
outstanding, true-to-life color.

Not all ED glass is created equal. Celestron's high quality ED glass
delivers visibly brighter, sharper images compared to non-ED binoculars.
The difference is especially apparent in low light conditions, such as
at dawn or dusk.

Coatings and Prisms

Nature DX ED features fully multi-coated optics. A binocular can be
considered "fully multi-coated" when all air-to-glass surfaces are
coated with multiple layers of anti-reflectivity coatings so that the
maximum amount of light passes through the glass to the eye.

The prisms inside Nature DX ED are made of high quality BaK-4 glass
with phase coatings applied so that more light is reflected off their
internal faces and passes through to the eye.

Taken together, fully multi-coatings and BaK-4 prisms maximize light
transmission for the brightest, most detailed images possible. The ED
objective lenses further enhance these features, especially in low light
conditions.

The Body

A durable rubber armored, polycarbonate housing protects your Nature
DX ED binoculars from damage. Viewing through Nature DX ED is
comfortable for both eyeglass wearers and non-eyeglass wearers, thanks
to the durable twist-up eyecups. Twist through multiple click stops to
find the position that works best for you. What's more, the binocular is
fully waterproof and filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent internal
fogging of lenses. Nature DX ED can stand up to even the toughest
outdoor conditions.

Perfect for Distance Viewing

The Nature DX ED 12x50 offers 12x magnification, perfect for up-close
views of distant subjects. The 50mm objective lenses are large enough
to gather lots of light, while still being lightweight enough to use
without a tripod. Of course, the binoculars are also tripod-adaptable
(adapter sold separately) for extended viewing sessions or digiscoping
(photography through the eyepiece).

Ways to Observe

Carry your Nature ED on the comfortable included strap. It's also
tripod-adaptable, so you can mount it on any standard photographic
tripod for extended viewing or digiscoping (photography through the
eyepiece). The tripod adapter is sold separately. The binocular also
includes a protective padded nylon case for storage and transport.
