Steiner Military Binoculars, Military-Grade Precision and Optical Clarity

Having received the Steiner Carry Case, I took this Top Tier Binocular and gave it a real test on one of the newest passenger cruise liners now plying the Seven Seas. This optical product by Steiner is truly a Precision Instrument and deserves its Professional Praises, with crystal clear optics, well protected armored coatings, providing absolute clear edge to edge brightness, even at dusk, dawn, and night observations, plus water resistance built in (both fresh and ocean salt-water). As a Bridge Watch Navigator, who requires perfect magnified vision for Safety-At-Sea including precise navigation, especially in crowded portside waters, and tight vessel berthing situations, this binocular provides unlimited service as long as it is cared for as any precision optical device, casing when not in use, and use of the neck strap at all times when deployed. This writer is most impressed overall with this German Made Optical Instrument, with the only criticism as it did not come with a protective carry case. It carries a heavy purchase price but for professional maritime requirements it exceeds all expectations for this writer. The only comment is that you must have steady hands as Ten Power is the Maximum for any and all Hand Held Binoculars. In summary this unit is rated thoroughly: OUTSTANDING!!

Clear view and very sharp images. Ranging reticle works pretty well, not precise as a laser rangefinder after 300 yds - which is to be expected, unless calling in artillery. A bit bulky and surprisingly light.
