Whether you're hiking a trail, watching a game, attending a concert, or observing wildlife, the Nature DX 12x50mm provides vivid, close-up views without compromising on image quality. With 12x magnification and a close focus distance of just 2.5 metres, it excels at both long-range and nearby observations, making it particularly well-suited for birdwatching and studying nature.
Premium Optics and Coatings
Nature DX features fully multi-coated optics, meaning all air-to-glass surfaces are treated with multiple layers of anti-reflective coating to maximise light transmission and image brightness. The internal prisms are made from high-quality BaK-4 glass and enhanced with phase-correcting coatings, ensuring sharp, high-contrast visuals even in challenging lighting conditions.
Together, these optical enhancements deliver bright, razor-sharp images with excellent colour fidelity and depth.
Rugged, Weather-Resistant Construction
The binocular’s lightweight yet durable polycarbonate body is reinforced with protective rubber armour, offering both resilience and a secure grip. Twist-up eyecups with multiple click stops provide a comfortable viewing experience for eyeglass wearers and non-eyeglass users alike.
Fully waterproof and nitrogen-purged to prevent internal fogging, the Nature DX is built to perform reliably in all weather conditions, from humid forests to cold mountain trails.
Ideal for Extended Viewing and Photography
Despite its powerful magnification, the Nature DX 12x50mm remains lightweight enough for handheld use. For extended observation sessions or digiscoping (capturing photos through the eyepiece), it is tripod-adaptable using a standard adapter (sold separately).
Included Accessories
The Nature DX binoculars come complete with a padded nylon carrying case, neck strap, and protective lens covers—everything you need to transport and store your optics safely and comfortably.
