NOW IN CAMO !!! The heart of Nikon's StabilEyes
is a battery powered system of gimbaled servos that are actuated when the unit
is powered up.
Unlike many other stabilized
products, StabilEyes is optimized as a binocular. It is a roof prism design
that incorporates precisely cut and polished lenses and prisms. All optical
glass elements are treated with multiple layers of anti-reflective compounds
for true color rendition,
superior detail resolution, and maximum light transmission. Additionally, prisms
are phase correction coated for the utmost in sharpness and clarity. A special
"VR Pause" mode keeps the image stabilized for long periods of time
and is very useful for long term viewing.
The Nikon StabilEyes is
a central focus design with an adjustable diopter. It has an exit pupil of 2.7mm,
a 60 degree apparent angle of view, and a field of view of 261' at 1,000 yards.
Eye relief is 15mm, very long in consideration of its 12 power magnification,
and it is fully waterproof, fogproof and shockproof.
StabilEyes measures 7.0"
x 5.6" x 3.1" and weighs 38.8 ounces without batteries. It is ergonomically
designed with a hand strap and integral finger grooves to reduce user fatigue
and aid in operation. StabilEyes is powered by four AA batteries and has a battery
power display that blinks when battery power is getting low.
Nikon StabilEyes stabilized
binoculars will be available in 2003 at quality sporting goods stores and authorized
Nikon photo dealers. Suggested list price is $799.99. StabilEyes are covered
by a one year limited warranty, and Nikon's exclusive $10 No-Fault Repair/Replacement
policy.
