The new Nikon Prostaff P3 and P7 binoculars have a pretty large FoV, especially the 8x30 and 10x42 versions with 69/70 degrees AFoV (simple formula). P7 with phase and dielectric coatings.
P7 8x30 is listed at 219€ on the German Nikon website. Seems fair considering the FoV. The Kowa BDII 8x32 with 8.8° is almost twice as much (419€). I think I'm getting one of those P7 8x30s.I wonder about the pricing though, given that the new M7 has meant an increase in pricing.
I'm always green with envy when I see the prices you get your side of the Pond.B&H lists the P3 8x30 at 126.95 and the P7 8x30 at 176.95 US.
@yarrellii Happy to help. Comparison photos of the Vortex and Traveller would be great. When I was putting this illustration together I kept rechecking the size of the traveller as compared to the other bins it just didn’t seem accurate. If it is spot on then the Traveller is one compact 8x32Thanks for your effort. I currently have the 8x32 Diamondback HD and the Traveller 8x32, I can try to take a picture comparing them both, to see if it matches your estimates.
They were in stock on Nikon.de, too but in checkout they said delivery time will be 1-2 weeks.All the Prostaff P3 and P7 versions in stock now on nikon.dk, so guess they'll soon be available in Germany too.
