The Nikon PROSTAFF Fieldscope is available in 60 mm and 82 mm versions with either a straight or angled body for those who are passionate about optical performance.

The Fieldscope features Nikon optical glass, multi-coated optics and improved chromatic aberration reduction, providing bright, high-contrast images with true color rendition in most lighting conditions. Basically, the new optical innovations allow users to pull subjects out of their natural backgrounds and reveal every detail in brilliant color and with clear, edge-to-edge resolution.

The Fieldscope also comes digiscope ready, so users can take high-magnification images using a digital camera bracket, and it features enhanced eye relief for use with eyeglasses. It has a built-in sliding sunshade to eliminate glare and to keep dust and rain off the objective lens, and its ergonomic porro prism design makes it easy to handle in wet conditions. Like all models in the PROSTAFF line, the new PROSTAFF 5 Fieldscope is waterproof, fogproof, nitrogen purged and O-ring sealed.

The 60mm PROSTAFF 5 has a 16-48x zoom eyepiece with a large ocular that offers a wide field of view for subject acquisition at 16x and excellent detail resolution at 48x. MSRP for the 60 mm PROSTAFF 5 is $499.95.

The 82mm PROSTAFF 5 has a 20-60x zoom eyepiece with large ocular and a massive 82 mm objective lens for an ideal balance of size and brightness. MSRP for the 82mm PROSTAFF 5 is $599.95.
