For the Travelite VI Series, Nikon have resesigned the body shape to be even more ergonomic for ease of use. The multi-coated lenses feature aspherical elements to give fine edge-to-edge clarity and the eco-glass used in the optical system is free from lead and arsenic.
The construction includes carbon fibre for light weight and durability and also includes rubber armour. Nice touches include an enlarged focus wheel (especially useful in cold weather) and click-stop dioptric adjustment which stops it un-adjusting itself while you’re busy looking through the eyepiece.
