Steiner Navigator Pro 7x30 marine binoculars - Extremely rugged, sharp images, 5m water proof - Outstanding viewing quality for beginners and professionals, Blue

Product Information

Floating strap: some marine binoculars float on water, ideal for boat use - but those that don't are usually supplied with a strap that will function as its flotation device. Obviously designed with watery environments in mind I feel these Steiner Navigator Pro 7x30 binoculars can also be used in a wide variety of other applications that do not necessarily include water. The 2 models differed in eyepiece construction, and the longer eye relief 7x30 can be visually recognised by its larger diameter eye lens On-camera Lighting Flashguns Canon Fit Flash Sony Fit Flash Nikon Fit Flash Fujifilm Fit Flash Micro Four Thirds Fit Flash Panasonic Lumix S Fit Flash Flash Accessories LED Camera Lights Thanks to Renze for this, from post #63 at: And now for something completely different: The Habicht 7x42

Also note that if you really need to, you can actually reduce the minimum focus distance on this type of system by adjusting each of the diopters and I managed to get these down to about 5 meters, however, this is obviously more time consuming than on a binocular with a single focus wheel mechanism and the depth of view is also greatly reduced.

Steiner Navigator Pro 7x30 Binoculars Review

The fit on the one that comes with the Steiner Navigator Pro 7x30 Binoculars is perfect and they easily flop over the top of the eyecups making them a cinch to return, but at the same time the rubber of the eyecup and that on the rain-guard, rub together just enough to ensure that it does not come away too easily. In the past, I have always used a full compact binocular (usually around 26mm lenses) when either canoeing or kayaking, and thus before receiving this mid-sized Steiner with its wide Porro prism shape, I must confess to being a little worried that they may not be quite as compact as I would have preferred. Note: I tested them using my sunglasses and as expected was able to achieve the full field of view with them on after completely folding down the eyecups. see the cross-section of a Mark II 8x30 WB; again per Henry Link: https://www.birdforum.net/showpost.php?p=2215889&postcount=235

The 2nd and 3rd pictures show a strap cover i made for the old Dialyt, which is just SO comfortable (and smells great!), that i plan on making one for this new Zeiss. I make them a snug fit to whatever leather strap I'm using, so they don't slide around on their own. Easy to adjust if you want to though. Zeiss service in Virginia (USA) just sent me the new eyecups, (at no charge!) as the 50 year old original ones had hardened in the turned down glasses mode. I prefer the cleaner view with my glasses flipped up, and nothing additional in the way.I was initially inclined to the view that the Habichts were not multicoated so as to provide greater product differentiation with the then new SL’s It seems that in these instances the diopter knob needed to be replaced but there were no earlier marked ones available Reticle scale: a navigational aid that uses a horizon line and a vertical scale for measuring the distance of objects of known height (such as a lighthouse) – sometimes an essential navigational aid. It’s comparable to both my late 1999 Swarovski Habicht 8x30 Porro (A6944) and also a much more recent Leica Ultravid HD 7x42 By the way: the eyepiece in the KOMZ BSZC2 6x24 has a very unique optical design: triplet - doublet - singlet
