Built tough with a die-cast aluminum body and rubber armor, they are waterproof and fogproof thanks to nitrogen purging and O-ring sealing.

## Description

The 12x25 Travelite Binocular is a lightweight and compact optic with a powerful magnification to bring distant subjects up close for detailed observations. It features a fully multi-coated optical path and an ergonomic housing — making it an ideal companion for outdoor enthusiasts, sports spectators, and city sightseers alike. Complementing the travel-friendly size are aspherical lenses that reduce the curvature that can distort the field of view as well as BAK4 reverse Porro prisms that work together to present flat high-contrast images with lifelike color and consistent center-to-edge sharpness. Combined with a 13 ft close focus distance, this 12x25 binocular is ready for almost any mid- to long-range glassing task. Responsibly sourced and containing no lead or arsenic, Nikon's Eco-Glass is used in all the lenses and prisms, to be ecologically friendly.

Review: Perfect travel binoculars. Small. Light. Good magnification. - I bought one pair of these from desertcart in Used condition but the prism in one eye piece wasn't properly aligned. I see this problem has been mentioned in other reviews. I was able to return them with no trouble and bought a pair in NEW condition. This time everything was perfect. Very nice and sharp. I have a trip to Costa Rica coming up so I wanted a pair that allowed me to look at things in a forest. So up at the top of a tree, not on mars. These are 12-25. The 12 is the magnification and 12X is just fine for what I need. If you get too much magnification you will find the image is hard to keep stable and you are so zoomed in it's hard to actually find what you are looking for. I also need something water proof, light and something that works well in low light situations. The 25 in the title is the size of the lens. Bigger means they let in more light. Bigger lenses are nice but add to the size and weight. I hate to suggest "showrooming" but you might want to pop down to an REI and what fits in your hands, what kind of weight you want, etc. It's tough to pick binoculars on the internet. But if you do decide on a small travel pair, these are the guys you want.
Review: Great, (Almost) Pocket Size Binoculars. Pricey - Love 'em for athletic events. Other brand pair of binoculars were misplaced. Went back to Nikon; superior to the other brand I tried, IMO. *NOT* disappointed; lightweight, (almost) pocket size, good quality. They were quite a bit more $$$ but I'm more than satisfied. I'm just going to be more careful, keeping track of them.

*by J***J on March 9, 2025*

Love 'em for athletic events. Other brand pair of binoculars were misplaced. Went back to Nikon; superior to the other brand I tried, IMO. *NOT* disappointed; lightweight, (almost) pocket size, good quality. They were quite a bit more $$$ but I'm more than satisfied. I'm just going to be more careful, keeping track of them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clear image and easy to use
*by P***9 on December 16, 2023*

Out of the box, the only set up needed is to attach the straps. It is easy to focus and has separate focus for each eye. The image is sharp and bright. We are pleased with these lightweight binoculars.
