With powerful magnification and large objectives, Nikon 12x50 Aculon A211 Binoculars Blackare an ideal device for hunters, birders, and outdoor enthusiasts who require an optic that delivers the capability of making long-range observations in even the most challenging light conditions.
The enhanced light-gathering ability offered by the 50mm objectives helps to ensure bright and clear views at dawn and dusk, or when peering into dense underbrush. Anti-reflection multicoated aspherical lenses, made with environmentally friendly Eco-Glass elements, complement the BAK4 Porro prism light path to deliver high-contrast images with enhanced depth of field without edge distortion, as well as accurate color fidelity. Despite their 12x powerful magnification, this version of the A211 has a wide angle of view that helps to offset the appearance of visible hand shake that is common with high-power optics such as these, while presenting the user with spacious views.
The Aculon's sculpted rubber-armored housing is designed to fit naturally into the observer's hand and provide secure non-slip handling. They are offered here in a subdued black color. Twist-up rubber eyecups and comfortable eye relief enable easy viewing without eye fatigue, especially during long observation sessions. For those who might experience arm fatigue or visible hand shake from holding a high-power/large-objective optic, the binoculars can be tripod mounted using an optional adapter. The combination of image quality and user-friendly design makes the 12x50 Aculon A211s a natural option for long-range glassing in even the most challenging light.

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Hello just received my 7x35 binoculars. They are much larger than I thought I read on your site, "compact for a regular size binocular. My question is about the shadows being a brilliant blue. looking at a bird across in daylight all of the shadows cast were blue. Watching a bird fly above, the black wings were blue. Annoying as I want the true colors knowing it is a black bird. Why? is this a defect?
A: Its called Chromatic Aberration or Chromatic Distortion. Its the failure of a lens to focus all colors to the same point. To a certain point all lenses have this issue. Telescopes, binoculars and even camera lenses. Manufactures try to compensate for this with the uses of special coatings on the elements. Sorry but you will probably see less noticeable chromatic aberration with some higher end binoculars. Also Chromatic Aberration is most noticeable around dark objects or objects in the shade.
Q: 2. how far can one see with them?
A: Hi Marjorie. These binoculars will magnify objects you are observing 7 times. In other words, the object will appear 7 times closer or larger. The optics used are very good and the image they produce is very clear. So if you combine magnification with a clear image, you will be able to make out detail you could not see with your eyes alone. So the question is not how far you can see but rather how much better you can see an object than with your eyes alone. For instance, with your eyes, you may see a bird in a tree 100 yds. away. With these binoculars, you will be able to tell the species of the bird. Hope this helps
Q: 3. Does this come with a case?
A: Yes it has a case. The binoculars are OK for the money but not great, the diopter adjustment is very difficult to turn.
Q: 4. How are these binoculars for stargazing?
A: Hi Peter,I bought these for that exact purpose and they are great! They're obviously not as mind-blowing as a telescope, but for binoculars they did what I was expecting them to do. You need to get a tripod adapter and use a sturdy tripod to minimize vibrations. Last week I used them to view the supermoon and it was awesome. I also use them for wildlife watching and I've been very happy...very sharp images and powerful zoom.Hope that helps,John
Q: 5. Does it come with tripod adapter?
A: No it does not come with the tripod adapter.
Q: 6. How weatherproof are these binoculars?
A: The manufacture dose not specify any type of weatherproofing.
Q: 7. would these binoculars be good for viewing across ocean at 20-mile distance?
A: Yes
Q: 8. What is the weight of these?
A: These binoculars weigh approximately 26.8 oz.
Q: 9. How much is the tax and shipping and handling?
A: You may calculate your actual shipping options/order totals by adding the items you want to a shopping cart. It will then list the shipping options, descriptions, ETA's and fees to your location.
Q: 10. Waterproof??
A: The Aculon A-211 appears to be Water Resistant and grip well in Wet Weather--They are not completely Waterproof--
