FieldScope Prostaff 5 is the successor of the highly popular RA III series. This is the basic model from the series of monocular telescopes by the world-renowned Nikon company, which can also be used as lenses for Coolpix digital cameras. Besides a perfect design they have great optics and a very light weight.
This telescope comes with a new lens with an eyepiece zoom that minimizes colour defects at the edge of the field of view and offers a large pop-out pupils for comfortable viewing. The sixty-millimeter lens allows for more brightness to pass into the field of view. The telescope is also equipped with excellent optics with multiple anti-reflective layers. In addition, there are the so-called Ecological glasses. This means that all lenses and prisms are 100% free of lead and arsenic. The optics are perfectly protected from water through waterproofing and, of course, also resistant to fogging.
You can also fix the telescope with the Digiscoping system. In this way, the monocular can be connected to various models of the COOLPIX series compact digital cameras using the FSB series digital camera holder. There are two screw holes for a stable tripod connection.

Nikon’s beginnings date back to 1917 in Japan. At first, the company mainly produced lenses - telescopes, binoculars, microscopes and other small, optical equipment. Soon the company expanded its portfolio, producing photographic lenses under the Nikkor brand.
In the field of cameras, particularly among professionals, Nikon quickly gained a reputation as a top manufacturer, which continues today. Its cameras were even included in the equipment of American spacecraft. Nikon designed and produced the legendary Nikon SP 1957, regarded by many as the best camera of all time.
