Scope out landscapes, wildlife and other subjects with these Nikon MONARCH compact binoculars. The dielectric high-reflective multilayer prism coatings on the lenses provide high color accuracy and sharp contrast, while the compact design makes carrying and storing simple. These Nikon MONARCH compact binoculars have a large field of view, so finding subjects is easy.
 

Do the two separate vision tubes bend? Sorry I do not have a more elegant way to say this. I saw a video where it said to get one that will move.

It is possible to pivot them to adjust to
one's eye separation. This is easy to do.

Is this compatible with the Lenovo 510A-15ICB? I have attached a photo of the specs of the computer. If so, what would it cost to have it installed and how long would it take?

I have this exact same computer - and this memory kit
worked perfectly with it. It even provided the maximum
possible speed permitted with my CPU! Installing it
yourself is relatively easy and painless. Watch a few
videos, and you could do it in as little as 15 minutes.
