The Nikon 8x20 Premier LX L Binocular is designed for mid-range observations, with optical features that live up to the name. The Premier is outfitted with phase-corrected roof prisms, anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics, and a field-flattener eyepiece lens system that are designed to work together and transmit clear images with enhanced contrast and accurate color representation across the spacious field of view — without the edge distortion that is common on compact optics such as this.
Nikon built the Premier with their ecologically friendly Eco-Glass, which is manufactured without lead or arsenic to be better for the environment. The aluminum chassis helps to keep the weight down without sacrificing strength, while the optical tubes are filled with dry nitrogen and O-ring sealed to be waterproof and resistant to internal fogging. Faux leather palm pads add an element of style to the binocular while improving grip strength and adding slip resistance. Designed with a compact and lightweight form factor for maximum portability, this version of the Premier is ideal for sporting events, general nature observation, and sightseeing around town or around the world.
