Hi today i'm taking a departure from my. Regular videos to talk about the zeiss conquest hd 10 by 42 binoculars i'm. Going to give them a users review talking about image quality feel and. Build and compare them to these mid-range nikon monarch 5 binoculars. Finally i'm going to talk about why you should or maybe should not spend the extra money on these isis versus the monarchs right off the bat you notice the superb packaging of the zeiss it looks like they're taking a page from apple with the elegant fold open box the instruction manuals tucked away and the binoculars themselves safely padded up inside form-fitting cushioning a nice shoulder bag and a comfortable zeiss labeled strap are included and actually. I really appreciate this wide and cushioned strap with this kind of. Material you can wear it for hours and the soft material won't get tacky when wet from sweat or rain okay the. Monoculars themselves come with a five-year no-fault warranty from zeiss where they'll fix them if anything goes wrong no matter how it happened so theoretically they could fall out of an airplane at 36,000 feet over the ukraine. If someone should inadvertently fire a buk missile at them although hopefully that never happens to me but it still could come in pretty handy let me just. Put these down taking the bye nose out it's hard not to instantly fall in love with the way they feel the weight is substantial but not excessive they're well balanced the rubberized grip has. Just enough just enough grip just enough. Purchase tactile feel and the focus knob. Is also very very nicely balanced. Between tension and looseness it feels. Solid like it's not going to come out of focus and of course it can be turned with a single finger very easily okay. I've read some online reviews talking about the diopter adjustment on these binoculars which is right here on the the lens shaft some people complain that. It's here instead of on the bridge next to the focus adjustment as it is in some of the really high top-end binoculars like the swarovski's and the leica's but. I will say that having it on the eyepiece really doesn't bother me at all because once they're adjusted you tend to just never touch them again unless you're sharing it with somebody else one more complaint people seem to have about these binoculars online is the front lens caps and i have to say they. Might have a bit of a point they're a little bit flimsy they require you know. Sometimes two hands to get them on you got to bend the bridge just right so. They might have a point dice could have done a little bit better with these lens caps although the good news is once they're on they're on and they don't feel like they're going to pop off anytime soon also the eye cups. Themselves when i first got these glasses the left eye cup well first of. All they go through clicks to adjust to the proper depth so you can get the proper eye relief and on the left side. The eye cup was a little bit sticky turning through and when i clicked it to. Open it up it actually screwed the eye cup right off the good news is i called zeiss customer service and they were very friendly immediately answered a real person and i've got a new pair of eye cups coming these are actually deeper eye cups as i says they provide greater eye relief although i seem to have no problem in that department the problem itself i was able to fix by just really tightening up the eye cup so that there was more tension in the threads and then i think also it just being. Broken in now it opens and closes without any problem. It's amusing to read some of the reviews of these or any binoculars online because people make it seem like looking through them make anything look incredible so let's not get carried away here you know when you peer through these things you're not seeing rainbows coming out of unicorns here or anything like that but these are $1,000. Binoculars and so you would expect the image quality b to be superior especially when you're comparing them to a mid-range set like these monarch fives. From nikon so i would say if you know. What to look for yes you can quite readily tell the difference in quality between these isis and the mid-range. Like the the nikons but if you maybe are less than avid. Binocular user maybe you're not a photographer i would say if you're happy with your mid-range stick with them but again more on that later so let me explain a little bit about why. These would be better so a bit about the zeiss viewing experience as i mentioned the glasses themselves the binoculars are very well balanced they feel substantial yet not overly heavy and the. Ten times magnification does put a premium on keeping keeping your hands steady which is something i'm not particularly good at but i really need. That extra reach compared to the eight times which actually is the preferred. Magnification for a lot of birders because the increased of you know angle. Of view the first time you look through. The glass you'll notice how true-to-life the colors are since the greater optical. Transmission gives excellent contrast with these as a photographer i really appreciate zeiss camera lenses in fact i'm filming this video through as ice' camera lens right now lenses themselves are known for are well known for what's called micro contrast which is the. Ability to discern very minut details and these binoculars don't disappoint on. That level either now of course compared to a camera lens you don't have the ability to reproduce crop and really analyze and pixel peep. As we call it image quality the image. That a pair of binoculars makes of course goes straight to that sensor behind your eyes and so the properties of the binoculars become a bit more difficult to to explain to somebody objectively that said i've hooked up a camera albeit a kind of mickey mouse set up to at least try to give you an idea. Of what it looks like through both the zeiss bye nose and the nikon's okay now. I'm trying to demonstrate the chromatic aberration these are the zeiss and they're not totally fringe free so look. At the far ridge line on that mountain when it's near the top of the frame you get a bit of a purple fringe hopefully. This will show up on the sensor and then if you have an edge down on the bottom of the frame you get a bit of a green. Fringe now it's subtle and it's not that distracting but nonetheless it's there. These are the nikons top frame purple bottom frame you get. Some green fringing this is really what. It all boils down to so the more natural it looks the better and i am very pleased with these glasses now a bit about the price. Of these binoculars and where they fit into the market up until this point i've. Been using nikon binoculars i started out with they're cheap and heavy action extreme little big clunky ones and then i stepped up to the monarch fives right here to the monarch fives which are. What's called routh prism as opposed to the other kind which are i've actually see i'm not a binocular expert i couldn't even describe the technical term for the other kind but these are lighter weight and more compact and you. Know very good for travel and sports and you can see they're fairly similar in size although the sizes are slightly larger and slightly heavier but as i got. More and more into photography i started to notice what's known as chromatic aberrations in the monarch fives isaac. Newton discovered that visible light can be divided into the spectrum roy g biv red orange yellow green blue indigo violet it's what we see when looking through prism and it's what we see with. The rainbow so the different colors of light have different wavelengths and they refract at different angles through lenses and if it weren't so we wouldn't see a rainbow at all but the problem with this differential refraction is it makes light passing through a lens want to spread its spectrum out which will. Only make the image look less sharp and it can also leave what's known as chromatic aberrations along bright edges. So i was getting a lot of that with these nikon's photographers no this is. Purple or green fringing and we do everything we can to avoid it we buy expensive lenses and correct. For it and as last resort we can fix it in the software but there's no way to edit the image with pair of binoculars so the nikon monarch 5 binoculars began. To really bug me because they have a high degree of chromatic aberration. Especially whenever i look at something brightly lit with sharp edges the green and purple fringes just became really annoying with these so i didn't want to. Spend a lot of money on an upgrade so i went with nikon's next most expensive. Set the monarch 7s which were around $400 these came in the mail from amazon and not only they have a defective diopter adjustment but the image quality was almost identical to the monarch 5s yes they were slightly sharper and they had slightly less fringing in the centre of the image but really didn't do much. To eliminate that distraction that i saw from all the purple and green fringing. So i returned them so thanks amazon for that that's when i decided to try the. Zeiss conquests now i'm not a hardcore. Bird watcher your are you know an output professional as i mentioned but if you've checked out my channel please subscribe you'll see that i do travel. Quite a bit to some exotic places and having a nice set of binoculars really adds to the experience spotting animals people etc so were they worth it well. The chromatic aberrations have not completely vanished with disease conquest um there is still some subtle fringing especially on the image edges that's the outside top and bottom of the. Images centre of the image the aberration is almost completely eliminated but the good news is the aberration even on the edges is reduced to the point where it's no longer distracting so i can live with it now i understand that in order to really eliminate the chromatic aberration. Across the entire image from the binoculars then you have to step up into the super expensive $2,000 plus range. And is just not something that i'm willing to do so who spends a thousand. Dollars in a pair of binoculars i think as ice very cleverly recognized that there is a niche market for binoculars in this price range and this is sort of the bmw 5-series with the mercedes. E-class you know sort of the entry into. The premium luxury level nikon has nothing after the monarch 7s until you get to their $2,000 plus edg line. And leica's comparable china vid glasses started about fifteen hundred and swarovski's slc line goes for 1700 so i. Think zeiss are very competitively priced at these conquest hds at a thousand i think for zeiss pricing these at a thousand it recognizes that there is a segment up there who wants a premium product but doesn't have the absolute need nor the discretionary income to spend $2,000 plus act if anybody watching this video does have experience with the conquests and the top-of-the-line zeiss swarovski you're like us please let me know how you think they would compare to those because i really have no idea but you know my. Impression is that once you're into this category the conquest hd the thousand dollars to. Jump to the next level of uncompromised image quality that's where you spend whatever it takes to get the best image you really have to spend a lot of money to do that so should you get them that's. Really up to you for years i was perfectly satisfied using the perfectly adequate nikon monarch 5s and there is. Nothing wrong with these entry-level you know mid-level binoculars and for. Probably the majority of users that's all they'll ever need they have a great combination of price feel and image quality i'm talking about you know the mid range binoculars but to me the. Conquest represent the sweet spot between quality and of course that's something that's going to vary person to person based on budget and how demanding you are about image quality so should you buy them if you have a thousand dollars to spend on binoculars i would say the answer is yes they're worth it if not the nikon's and others are also. Great value at half the price don't get caught up in price by according to your budget for me they're worth it and i really am enjoying using them.

Hello and another optic straight review today we'll be talking about mystics of science victory sf-10 by 42. Before we start doing so i want to. Enumerate and point out some of the most. Important factors that are typical for. This type of binoculars in 2007. Swarovski presented their first albino oculars to the public they soon became a. Great hit and were known for quite some. Time as the best binoculars on the market they were the first example of. Binoculars with an open bridge construction which meant they could be used single-handedly the most notable. Feature was the implementation of field flattening which swarovski named swaro vision with fill flattening swarovski. Achieved a flat field of view and better. Add sharpness because of this more. Details could be seen when observing the. Negative side was that the users often became sick especially when panic. Because of their great optical characteristics swarovski il binoculars. Were an indispensable piece of equipment for bird watchers all our brands could. Not compete with swarovski that time now quite recently sizing like and managed to. Come up with a competitive product. This here is size answer to swarovski il. Size is a german company known for. Producing top-notch optical devices size. Name these binoculars victory sf they. Feature a triple bridge construction and field flattening lenses then we talked about these are also the first ever. Binoculars from size with an open bridge. Construction because of the few. Flattering lenses the add sharpness is. Significantly improved sorry science. Hasn't completely flattened to fill the view like swarovski did which means that. The image is slightly angled at the sides with other words there is still. Some barrel distortion. However is not necessarily a bad thing. Panning is easier to do if this image is. Slightly angled at the sides the process is also less confusing for. The user people that pan with swarovski. Al felt sick because of the completely. Fat and feel the view this these. Binoculars do not have such problem the. Image seen through the binoculars is also less artificial because the field. The lenses aren't don't give us a completely flat in the field of view like with swarovski l and also keep in. Mind that our eyes are also round so it's less artificial also because of. That here i have the 10 by 40 to model. The 8 by 40 to model is also available. These are made in germany you can see. Here they weigh around 800 grams. They are 173 millimeters long and 130. Millimeters wide size fix tree as f10 by. 42 is a perfect choice for all those who. Want to see the most details when observing bird watchers will love these. And also those who often go hunting in. The mountains there a solution of these. Binoculars is outstanding for those who. Want to the most details when inspecting the game these are must-have size has. Chosen a very nice place for the focus. Knob it is really convenient to rotate. It with when holding it with the index. Or middle finger the binoculars are as well. Designed to fit into the users hand perfectly the focus is very finely. Adjustable perhaps size victory sf's. The Biggest advantage over like an octave it. And swarovski al is that size has moved. A portion of the lenses the ocular part. Consequent consequently victory sf is. Better balanced the most of the weight. Here is a bit back swarovski l for example. Has the most weight at the front part. Here it sizes victory sf it is a little. But better balanced and you can feel that by simply holding it the eye cups. Can be fixed in many positions however. Since these are binoculars of the. The Highest quality class these eye cups. Could be a little bit better made they. Can be stopped at multiple positions which is why they offer quite a good eye. Relief when you purchase size victory as. App you'll also get ocular and objective. Lens covers the ocular lens cover is. Right here very simple to install and to. Remove the same goes for the objective. Lens cover both of these are made from. Rubber and by putting them on after use. Even sure that the lenses do not get scratched the objective lens cover. However could be a bit better mate since. Many other binoculars that are cheaper. Have better solutions for the objective. Lens protection so this is perhaps a. Disadvantage now another thing that you. Get is this case with a size logo which. I think is very nice and high quality it. Is nicely padded on the inside it will. Come in handy when you want to stash the binoculars after using protect them from. Blows and impact it also has a nice size. Logo on it you will also get two straps. A new green strap for the binoculars. With also size written on it and they. Strap for the carrying case. You also get a called the certificate a. Quick guide and you also get a lens. Cleaning cloth now when you purchase. Size victory sf you will get a ten-year. Warranty this year retail for around two thousand. And three hundred and forty euros and the eight by four to model is around. Fifty euros cheaper the carrying strap. Here this carrying strap attachment. Could be a little bit better if you perhaps look at how swarovski al has. Designed these you'll see that size. Could have come up with a little bit better solution for these the prisms. That size victory sf is equipped with. Our course schmitt back and roof prisms the. Interior is filled with dry nitrogen which prevents internal fogging of the. Lenses when it's cold outside and these. Are also waterproof the overall build. Quality is on a high level as expected. The construction is very durable and one. Can tell that this will serve their purpose for quite a long time. The only exception perhaps are these eye cups which could be a little bit better. The diopter is set by pulling this knob. Here and pulling it out and then you can. Rotate it when the image is sharp and adjusted to your eye you can simply push. It back in place so the diopter setting. Is really simple now we have gotten to. The end of this short review and we're. Going to point out the three great. Things about these binoculars and three. Disadvantages which could perhaps be improved now the good things the first good thing is that economically there are very few. Binoculars out there that can now at the moment compete with size victory sf this. Can easily be used in a single hand and. The triple bridge construction is also a. Great innovation another plus is that. They're very lightweight they're light. Earnest for off ski l and also better balanced so the balance is here in the. Back and not in the front as indicate as. Is the case with many other binoculars. And the third point is that optically. These aren't currently among the top. Three binoculars in this category they offer exceptional sharpness great. Contrast vivid colors very big field of. View and some might rank it current as currently top binoculars even though. These are binoculars of the highest. Quality class or the previous premium class there is still space for some. Improvements and we want to be objective. About that of course the first disadvantage that I've pointed out several times is these eye cups which. Could have been better based on the fact that these binoculars cost quite a lot. The objective cover could also have been. Made better have been better made considering that these binoculars are. Have quite a steep price many cheaper binoculars do offer a. Better solution for this and the. Carrying strap attachment is the third. Point that could be improved swarovski uses a much better solution. For their sour av ski etl both in terms. Both in terms of design and functionality now this would be all if. You enjoyed and found this review useful. Please subscribe to our youtube channel if you have any questions about the. Product we so kind to leave a comment in. The come section below see you guys next time. You.

For the past couple of months we've had the opportunity to field test a new pair. Of the conquest hd binoculars by carl. Zeiss you know the features and benefits of this product for exactly what you'd. Expect from a company like zeiss, and they're under a thousand bucks as well. You know when i was a kid growing up anybody that was anybody had zeiss. Optics if you could afford the price tag you know back in those days high-end optics were well out of my family's range and i spend most of my time looking through these seven by thirty-five Busch and lomb great for. The time but nothing near what zeiss had to offer back in those days. German optics high-definition glass and. You can afford it at a price tag without sacrificing on quality the conquest hd. Comes in either 8 by 42 or 10 by 42. Models the glasses full high-definition glass and each lens is coated with 6 to. 12 coatings of t-star this is carl zeiss. A secret recipe for great viewing experience external lenses are coated. With low detector which causes water to beat up and run off the glass the. Focusing system has been completely redesigned for the conquest hd models to make it extremely smooth yet rigid. Enough to stay focused where you set it the diopter adjustment is on the right. Barrel of the optics instead of the centre diopter and this is one of the reasons i spin able to reduce the cost to below $1,000 i don't mind this. Personally because once it's set for your eyes you seldom mess with it test. Models tip the scales at one pound 11 ounces, and they are right at 6 inches. Tall about four and a half inches wide making them very compact and easy to carry the conquest has roll-up eye cups. That lock into place to accommodate those who wear eyeglasses the sealed. Unit is fog proof as well as waterproof. You know in all of our testing these. Conquest hd binoculars are exactly what. You would expect top-quality german glass durable dependable edge to edge.

A thousand bucks need i say more you. Now what stop by sportsman's warehouse take a look at these new carl zeiss conquest hd binoculars an 8 by 42 or 10. By 42 i know you're going to be happy. With either one you pick up

Everyone's ivan q badger comm here to. Bring you another gear view and today we're talking about these which are the zeiss terra idi 10 by 42 binoculars back. In a full disclosure been never impressed with binoculars had a bunch as a kid they were usually pretty cheap had. Then in boy scouts stuff along those lines and what it came down to for me is. What do i want this like 2 pounds of glass in my backpack for I'd rather bring snacks, and they never did anything. For me and then moving forward into the military in the marine corps here's these like five pounds steiner binoculars which we're probably really. Good like 20 years ago when they first got issued out and by the time they got in my hands I'll beat up scratched you. Can't see anything through them so fast-forward now as i start to get more and. More into hunting one i realize the. Intended application where they really shine and to actually get turned on to. What you're paying for with quality as. More and more I've gotten into using. Binoculars especially a good pair of binoculars I've come to realize its kind of along the lines of a trigger in. You ar you have a standard m4 trigger. And you use that for a long time all of a sudden when you drop in really nice guys lee super similar matic enhanced. Trigger in there you're like wow like this is awesome huge quality difference. Right so binoculars you use crap ones. For a long time and then when you use good ones you're like okay this is where the money's going like this is the quality like that's what I'm looking for conversely you hand someone a pair of binoculars, and they look through them. Haven't looked through any other pairs of binoculars and I'm like oh that's cool how much are these and you're like oh this is the price, and they're like are you serious because again there's no. Frame of reference these ice thierry. D-10 by 42 binoculars are great back. Here you have a nice big adjustment knob for your focus really comes in handy. See if it's colder than you have gloves easy to manipulate and it's really smooth doesn't get stuck anything along those lines the 10 by 42 is in reference. To tin power and then up front a 42. Millimeter objective lens i find these. Tin by 42 s to kind of be the sweet spot a couple different respects one as far. As tin, they also make a eighth power i like the tin that extra magnification glassy and hillsides and in addition to. That kind of size and weight about four. And a half inches by five and a half inches weighs a little over 25 ounces. Not super heavy not super big kind of. That perfect size and depending on how you want to carry them it obviously comes with a strap you can go throw l in. There and let these guys rest or what i like to do i don't usually have the strap on there cuz i find it gets in the way and I'll just keep them right in front of my hill people gear kit bag. Really handy right there or if I'm driving around it's a lot easier too not. Have that strap hanging off of them when you're trying to pick them up from the center console something along those lines some other notable information. With these terry ds is water-resistant not waterproof on their site it lists. Then as water resistant to 100 mil bears. No idea what that means looked it up one. Mil bar is basically in reference to. Thirty three point four feet underwater. These will not go that far. 100 millibars is basically pointed one bar. So what it really comes down to is don't. Submerge them, but they're good for weather events rain snow stuff along. Those lines don't dunk them as far as. Temperature operating range good from five degrees Fahrenheit up to 140 should. Be good for most instances maybe you don't take them down an article but overall pretty robust binoculars one. Think i did find interesting is these binoculars have a twilight factor of twenty point five what does that mean so. Twilight factor is actually kind of the antiquated metric for measuring optics. Binoculars as far as how much detail you. Can see in low-light not necessarily how much. Light gathering capability that actually hinges on the coatings of the lenses but. How much detail under low-light you can see the way they come to that is a. Formula it is the magnification multiplied times the objective diameter. Lens 42 millimeters then you get the. Square root of that which is about twenty point five what does this mean basically you can see pretty good detail. Even under low light that isn't in. Respect to how well these gathered light and i will say though they do a really good job and that's where that's where. You really get to appreciate binoculars any type of optic is kind of that wolf. Light before dawn after sunset like. Everything's kind of really dark lights going you can still see because with good. Optics they do a great job of gathering light these definitely do that and I'm really pleased with them investment you get yourself a good pair of binoculars you're gonna be using them for years and. Depending on how you want to carry them it also comes with a pretty cool kind of semi rigid hard case on the one side there's belt loops you can throw it on your belt slide it through webbing on your pack however you want to have it and zipper closure as well as this little magnetic top and when it opens it doesn't flop all the way up and so these things aren't going to tumble out smash themselves on some rocks pretty handy depending on how you want to carry it as far as the price point usually around four hundred dollars you can get them through amazon as well some other places but talk to the guys over at base camp. Site comm spell with a k and they were. Cool enough to offer me a number of discount codes for these so if you want. To pick some up reach out to me first I'll get you a discount code pretty much beat any other price you can probably find them for as always thanks for. Joining us to keep agile calm look forward to seeing you next time.

Back in 1990 i finally managed to buy my. First ever quality binocular and this is. It says iced classic delight 10 by 40 24. Years ago I've used these in africa I've used them in central america south america, and they've done me really well, but we're doing today though nothing to. Do with these we're looking at a current zeiss 10 times a 10 times 32 actually a. Conquest hd not the top-end a mid range. But it's a binocular that's meant to be. Really tough and that's what we're going to test so I've got them here in the bag. Let's get these other way ok so there. They are oh ok. So I've dropped them hopefully they'll. Be ok ok, so they're out of the box. They've got the rain guard on they got those strap on there you go pair of 10. By 32 conquest hds it works the real. Think nice twist diopter to bring sorry. Drop them again so this is the easy way. To bird watch was sitting in the bird-watching centre at rutland water birds out there my binoculars and i put. My coffee so that's that's the really easy way to do it except art don't waste. The coffee alright ok alright so you. Better wash these off really having just spilt some good quality coffee on them. So i mean it's nice to know you can. Drink your coffee out of your eye cup but ideally you don't want coffee on your bins and you certainly want to give a quick rinse off afterwards so that's what we're going to do so i just say and the water comes on okay what is arden's. Give em a good look give them a good rinse so that should get all the coffee. Out of their ok and. Amazing i know it's not quite like. Dragging them through tropical forest but some you know dragging them through. Vegetation i hope so well they're gonna. Cope with that okay so I'm in a another. Ida at rutland and conceiving you swift tower out there. Oh ah. So um i mean like most binoculars. They're they're waterproof so just leave them in a muddy puddle like that really shouldn't be a problem I'm kind of loitering really before i take them out but i guess i better rescue them shake. Off all right so the look yeah my smell. Of it, but they still work okay so you've. Seen what we've done to these little conquests, and they're still working you. No they're still working and all that stuff over you know the treading on the. Muddy puddle all of that we've done and. They've survived we hadn't done total submersion though, but we have just done. Total submersion so I'm going to try and. Get them out and i hope my watch is waterproof and i can find the strap. Which is reassuring and you can see actually that is how deep they are okay. And there they are. They look the cleanest they've looked all day here we go still working don't. Smell quite as bad as they did from the last puddle yep they still work, so we. No they're tough we've we've proven that but i wouldn't suggest that you do. The kind of stuff to binoculars that we've been doing you should look after your binoculars. Okay so they survived it and I'm well. I'm amazed to be honest i wasn't entirely relaxed about doing all those. Things to a pair of binoculars it's not what I'm used to doing, but they've done remarkably well the only bit of damage they succumbed to was. One of these eye cups got kind of jammed down we couldn't get it back out but i. Put a new one on doesn't look quite right but it is more functional these. Are going to now go back to zeiss is going to get them sorted out, and they're going to be the bird fair this year they're going to be on the bird-watching stand in marquee two now so you know it's the same binocular the serial number is three six eight fives. Four five zero and you can come along. And make an offer so you can get a binocular that will cost you well maybe. Less than the 600 pound it would otherwise cost you okay it's been a. Great day they've done really well, but we're done I'm out of here. You.

Through the eyes of a predator extend. Your world with steiner predator bro see. What you've been missing steiner coated optics pull wildlife. Right out of the woods calling out browns and reds from the surrounding green making it easy to spot the most. Hidden birds check your targets at the. Range or spy your game with eyes crafted. Just for the hunt waterproof and. Shockproof for real field use. Lightweight and easy to take with you into the deepest wild dependable clarity. While all the competition gives you is a fogged up mess steiner german made. Optics stack the deck in your favor. Being mean forest green steiner is the. No contest you enjoy and you get yours. Here for less.

Hey folks have here some steiner. Binoculars steiner out of germany these are the 8. By 42 predator extremes the colors forth. Green they come in this really nice. Steiner case here's the by no sir. The strap attached strap for. This case and there's a couple little sliders here adjustments for the strap. Now in the spirit of full disclosure i. Am a huge steiner fan and it dates back. To my days in the marine corps where a. Lot of my gear tasting gear companies. Come from we use the steiners there and. I don't remember what model it is it's the wide ones, and they were awesome. I mean they were always crystal-clear and a big thing they were tough and let me tell you any gear that can be used by. The marines it is tough because marines break everything and i do mean everything so for these to stand up and not break they're tough and let me tell you these. Are some tough but i healers and then. Also my I've always wanted a pair of the. Steiner binoculars and when i was just over in germany this last summer i got to see a lot of steiners they're very popular over there of course because they are extremely well-made and from. What i found with the germans they don't. Do anything that they can't be the best as if they can't make a product that's the best. They don't make so I'm a huge fan of. German optics and that's not to say there aren't some other optics that come. From other companies countries that are great at making them i know the austrians make great optics i believe the u.s. makes great optics i. Believe there's a lot of good optics coming out of japan also so there's a. Lot of company countries that make great optics but to me that the german optics. Are my personal favorite and these. Puppies here have quite a few features so bear with me i have come on ipad i. Got the web page up i got the owner's manual i got some other resources here so I'll have to confer I'll try to keep. It shortened as concise as possible so. And the first thing i want to go over with these optics and these optics. Have an updated coating on them it's the predator coating we call it and that's whether predator optics but this coating. They have on them allows for animals to. Kind of pop out at you if you would so. What it does this coating it kind of dampers the greens a little bit subdues. Then and not even to the point where it's that noticeable with the human eye because the greens still look really good on this but it allows for browns. And reds to really contrast well so when. You're looking through these wildlife. Such as deer tend to pop out at you a. Little bit more than with standard. Binoculars now i usually this past. Weekend hunting its my first time and i. Have to admit i didn't see anything any. Deer it was a terrible weekend i didn't see any deer with these. Binoculars but i did see other wildlife i saw some squirrels some coyotes and i. Can tell you they do contrast with their. Background a little bit better than with standard binoculars i thought they popped out pretty well i really like that feature i think it's a nice feature and for hunting i think these are about. To me i think the best optics you can. Buy in my opinion. Some other features i really like about this i like these lens caps they attach so there's nothing to lose some of my other optics the lens cap is removable it comes off, and they get lost. These front side lens caps also are. Attached the side here is a little slot, so they actually completely disappear the side is permanently attached it's. Kind of nicely swing away so you don't have any issues you know they don't get. In your way while you're using them but. I do like detachable eyepieces so then. We have right here is the center focusing ring to focus these the first. Time you use them kind of like for signing a gun you put this you twist it. So that it's in the middle of the range and then you use the diopter to adjust. For your eyes once it's focused then. Then you use this for the fine-tuning focusing or the fine focusing as you go. These here also have to give you proper. Eye relief these eye cups come out. Has these little flaps here for to keep the sun out or you can if you don't like them you can or if you don't need them you can fold them away the picture on. Here is i kind of alluded to earlier for. Me to the steiner optics have the most crystal-clear optics that i have personally ever used i know some people say the source keys are the best some. People's opinion i think the price on these things here. Is outstanding for the quality that you. Get I've caught up to msrp is on it let me check here real quick i believe it's five four or five six hundred like that. Let me check i apologize for not having had information it's not here on a. Website but their price significantly. Significantly less than the Sikorsky. Optics which i think is awesome and i. Will as i go through I'll post a price. On their own in the comments just so you know these. Are nitrogen pressure-filled the lenses. Supposed to help with internal fogging in the case of extreme temperature changes that's really important up here in the north where i hunt it's nice and warm inside when you go outside it can be extremely cold they have rubber armor. Right on them and the bottom here has a place for your thumbs kind of comfortable it's nice in glasses it nice. When you have gloves on it helps with gripping and it is nice texture. Here also and then another feature i. Really like about this it's called the nano protection optics and it's their. Protected against environmental impact and has a high water repellency so even. When it's raining you still see well the. Water is going to beat up really nice on it so i need as i said it's the 8 by 40 2's they weigh twenty-six point five. Ounces excuse me field of view is 369 feet at a thousand. Yards i believe it is 42 millimeters the. Dimensions of these in inches is 6.9. Lengths 2.6 height and 4.9 width so if. You have never tried out steiner optics. I highly encourage you to do so and you can even you know it's so a nice thing about optics unlike guns you. Can't really try them out in the store a nice thing about optics is you can go to. The store and try them out you can compare other optics to them look at the. Contrast if you compare these to any. Other binoculars i guarantee they're going to come out favorable especially for the price of these i think they're a. Great value for german optics so as. Always if you have any questions let me know semper fi. You.

You. Hello again this is just gonna be short. Quick review of a monocular and that i. Carry out in the field because even though i have a really nice pair of binoculars which I'll do a review of as well they're just it's still too bulky. Because if you get it really small like a 25 mil objective they're just tiny and really useless pretty much oricon where. Is this one alright it's just perfect. You know it's its it's got a big enough objective to be you know useful and but. It's not too bulky and it's I've got it. Now for a couple years and it's its. Going really well and it doesn't surprisingly like the one and only metal. But on it which is the belt that has not started to rust so the coating on it is. Really good but anyway what it is it's. The your cedar there's snap shots at the. Start it is the vortex solo 10 by 32. Monocular and the serial number is s 136. So you want to buy it just go online and. Just look up the vortex s1 3 6 and it. Will come up it's what you get with it. You get the unit itself you get this. Really long landed mm suppose it's for. Hanging around the neck duck probably good for good bird watch it but yeah what i think i have that hanging. Around the neck contracts there in the bush bow down you did come up it does. Come with a nice carrying there does speeding pretty much perfectly. Yes so it's a perfect fit so that's. Really nice then it's quite sturdy carry bag it's not really flimsy garbage like. What if the chinese stuff away it's made in china like no where is it made it's a. Made in china there you go but obviously vortex that. Was standard so it's got the actual. Carry case has got elastic sides and. Sort of padded a padded front and back. And body one-piece so that's in a belt. Loop of course so it's yeah it's really. Sturdy it hasn't fallen part stitching hasn't started coming apart so all in. All it's a pretty good uniter than out the specifications are let's see the size. Length and width it's four point nine. Inches by two point six inches its nine point seven ounces see the screen. Showing you a bit so the eye relief is. 15 mil field of view is at one thousand. At 1,000 yards it's 325 feet close focus. Is the closest that you can fire because it is sixteen point four feet yeah. Mm-hmm doesn't really matter because what would you be using a monocular if you're looking at less than 20 feet. On the side what's it has to say it's. Fully multi-coated with anti-reflective. Coatings for brighter views nitrogen gas. Purging delivers fog proof waterproof performance rugged rubber armor provides. A secure non-slip grip yeah it is. Quite and contoured designed for. Comfortable handling and it is. Actually quite yeah it's quite a economic the white shaped just the way. It sits in your palm so it's yeah it's. Really good there's there's nothing like there's not ridiculed or any you have arranged boney. Reticle for a deer forest and we've. Got like seven species of d here in australia so have it and some of them at. Like small too big so they're gonna. Completely muses but anyway just it's. Just straight lines straight clean. Lenses there's really not much more to. Say it's a really good unit as far as price and the belt clip is. Really big long it's an ample belt clip you know thanks dude so with two big. Yeah two good-sized is a this is. Even though it's mounted on a piece of on a plastic looks like a plastic block. The there are actually making ferrell's. Steel ferrell's that the screws going to. So the allen screws I'm not going into plastic so that's its really. Really sturdy you'll have to give gore-tex you know kudos I'm not really. Owned any vortexes but from time to time. I hear people what their eyes just bagging him and then other people say no no they fantastic i don't know but as. Far as this is the one only vortex of it was i don't know episode it's good stuff. Let's see. Yeah it works fine. Um there's really not much more to say. About a price that's frozen in estate price oh I've seen it like the price. Very live look online i think i paid. Like just add 100 bucks for mine at 100. I'm sitting double that so shop around. Because if you're paying more than a hundred bucks for that you're just over 100 for that then i think you're getting ripped off and some people are selling them for twice that price oh yeah damn pain wouldn't home the bucks but all in all i would highly recommend it the vortex so. Low ten to thirty-six with the 36 miller. Did that i think that's optimum bigger than that yeah they get pretty bulky small on that like with it with the 32. Or 25 or something that just too small so finally recommended the solo vortex. So low ten by thirty-six get yourself. One and you won't be disappointed and that's about it and I'll see you like.

hey everybody dan from transient outdoors man i am super pumped today to unbox the vortex fury range-finding. Binocular we have some silica gel by the. Way guys with everything going on these days don't eat these please don't eat. These here's some kind of buckle will. Maybe a neck strap not 100% sure what that is pull it out one thing that's really cool right off the bat is you get a chest rig with these by nose and you. Don't have to buy an aftermarket one this is the one that i used all of last. Year in alaska and montana love this. Think and this one's really neat because the fury is so compact so is the chest. Harness there they are so this has the. Front piece that's removable so that like all other vortex binoculars this is. Easily tripod compatible nice little by. Nose same build quality as all the other ones that I've used great size in here. Is your spot for your cr2 battery which. Comes included that just screws out with a big screwdriver or a quarter or whatever you want to use drop that one battery in there and shatter it up what else is in the box here we have lens. Covers on the ocular side lens caps for. The objective end so anyway a little bit about the fury again one of the really. Cool things about this binocular is its size I've hunted with some bigger range. Finding binoculars in the past and I've sold them because they're so big and so heavy these things aren't light, but they're definitely not nearly what you'll get in some of the other big range finding binoculars and with that said the price points right on these two i don't think. That you're gonna find another pair of range finding binoculars it's this capable at this price point with a maximum range on a reflective surface above 1600 yard these are definitely a formidable. Long-range hunting binocular but it. Really shines for bow hunters too if you've never given any consideration to bow hunting with a range finding binocular it lets you minimize your gear roster you've got your binoculars here at all times there's no fumbling around switching for your rangefinder to your binocular i used to be one of those tree stand hunters that didn't hunt with binoculars because i figured if it was close enough to shoot with a bow it was close enough to positively identify what it was but once you start hunting with a pair of binoculars out of tree stand you won't go back so as i mentioned maximum yardage for the range finding capability on this thing is 1,600 yards and the. Minimum which is just as or more. Important especially for a bow hunter is nine yards so the furies give you a true. Range angle compensated all the way from. Nine to maximum range especially for. Rifle hunters being tripod compatible is a big advantage all you do is thread. This little front piece out set it aside and then thread your gap turn and can. Clip into any tripod or mono pod or what have you a lot of people don't know and this is across all brands of range. Finding binoculars or range finders in general if you take a range finding device and put it on a tripod or put it on a mono pod or even find a way to set it on a rock before hitting the range button you're going to get a much more. Accurate range reading doesn't matter whose rangefinder it is its applicable. To all of them so if and when you can get it on a solid surface that's why i like having tripod compatible binoculars. And range finders so just a little bit about the look and the feel of this everything's really nice and tight your. Focus knob is back here and there's a. Real nice the green armor coating gives you a real good purchase on the optic I'm pretty pumped to get these things in the field this year and actually I'm. Planning on going and breaking in my wife's new rifle this weekend so that's where we'll give them their first try again the fury from vortex if you're. Looking for a range fighting binocular do not pass up the opportunity to check these out you.

Hello and welcome to another short video review from optics straight today we'll. Be talking about the characteristics of vortex fury for example manufacturing all kinds of. Optics since 2002 they make optics for. All price classes vortex offers a huge. Range of products for pretty much every need their products are made in china philippines usa and japan and are known. For great price performance ratio. Another reason for vortex popularity are. The great warranty terms fury our vortex. First ever binoculars with an integrated. Laser rangefinder they display distance. To the observed object by meeting a laser beam which then reflects from the. Observed objects and travels back to the. Internal sensor internal receiver on the. Device the distance is determined based. On the time that has elapsed between emission and reception of the beam let's. Start with the optical appearance of this optical device the eye cups are. Rubberized and can be fixed in four. Positions one two three and four and. They're quite comfortable to use with or. Without glasses the diopter setting is. Located here on the left ocular while. The radicle focus is on the right color the focus button is simple to use simple. To turn these protruding parts allow the. User to get a firm grip and the same. Goes for the settings on both oculars. The battery compartment is located right. Here at the bottom of the device the. Cover here has to be unscrewed to access the battery compartment and well when. Opened the user has to insert a single cr2 battery with the positive side. Facing in the housing is covered with. Rubber to protect the interior from. Potential blows holding the furious. Convenient this protruding lines. Will make your hand stay in place. Vortex chose their conventional color so. Green the dino killers look very nice. What is also interesting is that vortex. Added the possibility to mount this binoculars on a tripod you have to. Unscrew this knob right here to. Access the part two that allows you. To fix the biological errs on a tripod. Adapter this it of course has to be. Bought extra there are two buttons on. The fury both are rubberized they can. Also be used when it's dusk ins outside. Since the menu button is a little bit dented perhaps you can see that it's a. Little bit dented while the measure. Button has four small protruding points. On it this feature is nice since it allows the user to clearly differentiate between the buttons without having to look at. Then once the user gets used them of course the device allows you to enter. Mode selection first you have to power. The binoculars on by pressing the. Measure button then you have to press. And hold the menu button for four seconds which will make the mode selection screen appear in the mode. Selection the user can switch between hc. D and l os modes between yards and. Meters display and set the brightness. Settings let's start with the modes hc d. Is the first mode and hc d stands for. Horizontal component distance and this. Is basically another name for equivalent horizontal range or ehr this mode. Provides angle compensated range. Information which is especially used for bow users rifle users that shoot on. Longer distances and hunters that hunt. In the mountains the second mode is called ello s and this abbreviation. Stands for a line of sight it is to be. Used by those who use ballistic film applications or something similar and. Also meant to be used by those who shoot beyond 500 yards with slopes greater. Than 15 degrees the range number. Displayed in his mode is the actual line of sight range with no ballistic corrections and in this mode the incline. Angle number will be displayed at the. Top of the radical above the distance to. The target this number can be entered in. Ballistic applications so that bullet. Drop can be precisely calculated moving. On laser fury feature a scan mode which. Is great when the target is moving or when you want to know the distance to a very small object in this case you can. Just scan the surroundings and you get to the desired the you will get a desired distance it works in both modes. That i mentioned you activate this mode by holding the measure button down and. Scanning the binoculars ability to. Display distance is influenced by many. Factors such as size shape of objects. And weather conditions the binoculars. Are capable of displaying distances up to 1600 yards such distances can only be. Displayed in ideal conditions of course and when the object is big enough as regards deer and similarly sized animals. The binoculars are capable to display readings up to 1000 meters in perfect. Conditions of course it is as well. Important to note that late laser. Range-finding binoculars are not designed to be extensively used dusk the laser part is integrated into. The optical part and that reduces the. Light transmission rate the image will thus not be as bright as with classic. Binoculars with same specifications in. The package you get this nice cased. Stash of binoculars in with a vortex. Logo you can also see that the lance cloth for the ocular and objective lens. Is provided you get nice carrying straps. Lens colors that are made from rubber. And a neck strap and also the. Instruction manual that I've already shown you also get vortex vip. Warranty which is one of the greatest things with vortex it means that vortex. Will replace your binoculars if they get. Damaged or defective at no charge but. You have to know that this warranty only applies if the product is still in. Production currently only the 10 by 42. Model is available in the market and each retails for around 1,300 euros. These binoculars are very similar as. Regards appearance the external design to Calais haley a rangefinder which is. Also a new product that's currently been. Put on the market we are slowly reaching. The end of this shorter view so it's. Time to enumerate some positive and. Negative points that that regard these. Binoculars if we start with the good. Ones definitely the first one is the. Design these the appearance of this. Binoculars is very good they're nice to. Look at the price is definitely the. Great thing for 1300 euros you get the. Ability to measure distances up to 1500. Meters which is of course great another. Great thing that can be overlooked is a vortex vip world a vortex will replace the defective if. This these binoculars get damaged vortex. Will replace them at no charge while. They're still in production and another great thing is the equivalent horizontal. Range ability that these binoculars. Offer also the scan mode which is also a. Great add-on the bad points the first. Bad point is perhaps that these. Binoculars are made in china they cost. One thousand and three hundred euros and are still manufacturing in china this is. Perhaps a — and they also another — is. These bulbs on the lower side of the binoculars which really don't look that. Great and make the binoculars look. Somewhat funny but anyways these. Binoculars are a sign that in fact in. All of the manufacturers of binoculars will slowly start introducing binoculars. Whether in an integrated rangefinder this is the future of binoculars, and we. Will see what the time brings i would. Like to thank you for watching this. Short review if you found the information in it useful leave a like. And perhaps subscribe to our channel if I've perhaps forgotten to mention something. And you've got any additional questions send us an email or leave a comment in. The comment section down below thank you. Guys for watching and see you next time. You.

All right today we are taking a look at. The vortex optics fury hd laser. Range-finding binoculars 10 by 40 to. Power you get a bunch of straps on. Assuming these are straps that go to hold the harness for the actual by nose. To wear them and some straps for the. Actual juice bag i believe so just kind. Of set those to the side for now. Okay so they've got these little rubber. Eyepiece caps and then the ones on the. The other end are actually built into it. Pretty simple I'm guessing that's a. Battery yeah battery unit because there's your range-finding controls they're pretty. Standard adjustable eyepieces for your. Die out diopters there's an adjustment. There pretty standard those are not and then. We're gonna be able to see this when you. Get up to the work but basically when. You press these buttons here you got a. Measure and a menu button and these have. Been pretty easy all you got to do is hit the button there's a little reticle inside the binocular hit measure and it. Gets you back a measurement the menu. Goes through all the menu options, but they're rubberized pretty light for what. They are the glass is good quality kind. Of hard to show you on a camera here but you gotta take my word for it i guess, but they are i think they retail for. 1500 I've seen em on amazon for about 1200 pretty good so far. They're way 31.8 ounces and at a. A Thousand yards you get three hundred fourteen feet of field of view. So not too bad and they go out to 1600. Yards max so it depends on if that's. Good enough for you i think these are. Good for if you need a buy know and a rangefinder if you just need a rangefinder i still like my sid kilo. 2400 abs model but feeling the. Binoculars and the rangefinder together it's really hard to beat these vortex. Fury hd's.

Hello and welcome to another one of optics trade signature videos today i. Will present to you the vortex diamondback db 203 8 by 32 binoculars. Vortex optics is an american company based in middleton Wisconsin their manufacturing optics for various fields of applications such as hunting bird and. Other wildlife watching all the recreational sports and law enforcement the company has made quite a name for. Itself due to their quality affordable prices the diamondback is vertexes lower. Middle range series which is meant to accommodate masses build quality is good. Nonetheless, the binoculars are designed. With root prisms inside and pulley multi-coated lenses and the electrically coated prisms they are capable of. Projecting bright and sharp images with vivid colors the downside of the lenses. Is the amount of light that they pass through when it comes to environments with load with low light the thirty-two. Millimeter lens does not allow lots of light to pass through but it's still more than the eight by twenty-eight model the db 200 the device in front of. You is the new model of the diamondback. Db 203 it's a very compact size. Binoculars they are like 114 millimeters. In length with the end away like 440. Grams they are green with a. Rubberized body their field of. Application includes outdoors traveling. Hiking amateur bird-watching and other. Like sports when you need a lightweight. Binoculars the build quality is decent. And the build type is like a central bridge standard shape with central focus and right eye speed after they have good. Finger position groups on the under part of the device which you can see here. Perfect to hold them the grip areas as well. Add a little bit of the creation to the device. Now to say something about the optical properties of the device so the. Binoculars have eight times magnification with a thirty-two millimeter lens diameter the prism is a. Schmidt pattern root prism is the. Electric be electrically coded the eye. Relief is fifteen point six millimeters and the field of view is 142 meters per. 1000 meters which is actually quite good the tunnel effect is very minuite these. Binoculars are purged with argon their water waterproof and fault proof the. Device is made in china and the white is. The famous vortex wavy warranty the. Binoculars are in general good and have. Very decent warranty terms now a few. Words about it i cops of the device the. Lenses are protected neatly with this. Protection cups these. Binoculars have twist up i cups in three. Positions first second and third they. Are very firm maybe not as much as. When the previous models but like still. With a bit of pressure you can press it. From third to second position with ease which is not really good but the. Diopter button is better than on the previous model this is the all-new. Diamondback the knob is bigger with. Better grip area so they made an advance. Here put a like a step back with i cut. The i cops are made of rubber. They are fear firm and decent but they. Do pull down with a bit of pressure. Again a nice group area which adds the creation as well that's a few words. About a focusing system the focusing is. Done with a rotating knob in the middle. Of the device it's capable one and a. Half rotation altogether so let's put it. In the starting position so this is the starting position first turn about a. Half of another turn so about a one and. A half turns the dial turn up as i. Mentioned before it's really good you. Can you can feel it like clicking a little bit so know where you are device. Folds and unfolds with not too much. Pressure and let to lessen i would say. It's like pretty good sometimes we get. Devices which are really loose and then you can switch the inter popularity. Since with these which is not the case with this device it holds is it could it holds its shape so in the end let me. Just say a few words about the general appeal of the device so as I've said. Before i really like the rubberized body with all the grip areas you can see here. They really like offer you the optimum. Optimum way to hold binoculars i as well. Like especially compared to the previous. Model the bigger diopter setting up. Which is like superbly done on the other. Hand there's like one setback the eye. Cops are a little bit worse than on the. Previous model with this week all new diamondback has bigger and put less firm. I cut. Other than that the lenses produced. Produce a crisp image very sharp with. Vivid colors the size is also on its. Plus side it's like a boat on the border. Between compact and pocket-sized binoculars also the big plus for. Like all vortex devices is the vortex we. Fe warranty now in the box you will get. Your binoculars of course with the. Protection for the lenses on both sides. Sides you will get a hard case pouch very. Durable in case you might drop your binoculars at some point you will get a. Carrying strap port pouch a carrying strap for the binoculars and of course a. Vortex cleaning cloth well that's all. For me for now and i hope you enjoyed this video and that it was useful for. You so subscribe to our channel and joy. Bye. You.

Hello and welcome back to another review. From optics trade today i have here. Binoculars from vortex these are vortex diamondback 10 by 28. So vortex optics is a young manufacturer. With headquarters in the united states. They are known for do you think many. Optical devices in every price range they are specially known for the great. Price performance ratio and of course. Vip warranty which i will talk about. More later this is a newer model it was. Introduced in 2000 m16 diamondback is an. Old series it is also the best-selling. Vortex series it offers incredibly versatile. Binoculars that are hand friendly. Waterproof fog proof and have incredible optical features the price performance. Ratio with these binoculars is the. Highest with ever seen you can choose. Between eight different models in. Diamondback series these are perfect for. Different outdoor use for hunters bird. Watchers travelers hikers and so on. These binoculars are small pocket. Binoculars they also come in eight power. Magnification we also have 8 and 10 by. 32 binoculars which are compact. Binoculars and also more standard configuration 8 and 10 by 42 and bigger. Models for low-light use and by + 12 by. 15 these binoculars are made in china. They are really small as you can see. They are about 11.5 5 centimeters long. And 12 centimeters wide away 382 grams. So they are really lightweight they have. A classic Schmidt back on roof prism. Design they are also rocked. With green rubber armor we have these. Dots on the side which help with the. Handling because they are so small they. Can easily be stored in your pocket or a small bag that's why they are perfect. For travelers and different adventurers who are looking for small light binoculars but with a satisfying image. The ten power magnification provides you. With more detailed image so that's why. They are also ideal for hunters because. They are so small and light, so they can they are able to make a quit observation. Because of the twenty millimeter lens. You can mostly be used only during. Daytime of course they are waterproof. And filled with argon gas to prevent any. Internal fogging they can also be. Mounted on a tripod with this tripod. Adapter you just unscrew you have to buy. The adapter separately but honestly. Because of the small because they are so. Small they can be held in hand and still. Get a study image the lenses are fully. Multi-coated which contributes to clear. And crisp image the image is also sharp. In the center however it is a bit blurry. On the edges the field of view with. These binoculars is 83 meters at. A Thousand meters which is quite narrow. But this is to be expected because of. The ten power magnification central. Focusing knob with rip-rip surface or. Easier adjustments the turning is hard. Enough so there is no fear of accident. Turning the knob is also quite nicely. Positioned so we can adjust the focus. With one finger there's also a logo and. Series and configuration printed knob. The diopter adjustment wink is located. On the right i piece turning is hard so. It's quite reliable but the only bad. Thing is it that the ring is quiet. Narrow so you really have to did well to. Turn it the i-cubs can be twisted. Twisted up they offer to click positions. So first and second for eyeglass earth. They have to be turned down to secure. The best viewing image because they are. So reliable they can also be stopped at. Any in-between position and they won't. Turn down easily the rubber is quiet. Soft and seems durable binoculars come. In their soft padded case sir binoculars. Can be protected there's also a pocket. Inside it also has a white vortex logo. Printed and of course a belt loop so you. Can easily attach it to your belt you. Also get trap for the bag. Of course strap padded strap for wine. Oculars cleaning cloth rubber eye cup. Covers so you can protect your cup by. Cops. Wherever you go there's also rubber. Objective lens covers with vortex logo. The great thing of this is they can be. Removed from the barrels so if you don't. Like them you can easily remove them or. You can keep them up so there is no fear. Of losing them you also got instructions. And of course the famous vortex vip. Warranty which is unlimited. Unconditional lifetime warranty basically they will repair or replace. The fact if or damaged products for free. To sum up this video these binoculars. Are really small as you can see and. Really light they are easy to store. Anywhere in your pocket bag anywhere the. Image is satisfying it is vivid and. Sharp especially when you consider the. Price the price is only one hundred and. Seventy nine euros these are a great. Option for travelling camping or other nature adventures and of course the. Famous vortex of vip warranty which is. An awesome thing i have to point out. Some bad things field of view could be bigger it is only 83 meters at a thousand. Meters so when comparing these. Configuration to other configurations the field of view is quite narrow these. Binoculars are also more on the heavier. Side heavier side than other binoculars. With this configuration and the close. Focus distance is 2 meters so maybe. These binoculars are not so suitable for. Close observations but when you consider. The lower price these binoculars are. Really a great choice that's everything. For this review if you enjoyed that.

Alright kiddies today's product review. Is about my vortex diamondback ten by. Forty two binoculars when i was getting. Ready to go on my trip i was doing a few. You know trying to find the things that i would really need to take with me on this trip and you know stuff that was gonna be really important for hunting you know planning to hunt and scouting. And doing all of that kind of stuff that goes along with actually going out and putting some meat in your freezer one of. The things that i got talked into was buying these binoculars and i got to. Tell you I'm very very pleased that i got talked into buying these my friend. Joe over sportsman's warehouse there in Robert park he showed me a couple of different ones he showed me the diamondbacks, and he. Also showed me the vipers they didn't. Tell me which ones he was handing me he just had me go through the procedure of. You know getting them balanced on the eyepieces and then about six different. Targets to look at and focus in on and. You know he'd hand me a set of binoculars I'd go through the process and look at these several targets that he told me to point out and it's just super amazed at the quality on. Both of these glasses but when i got. Gone looking through the second pair i handed him back to him and i said you. No i can't tell the difference between the two, and he said that's why you're gonna buy the diamondback as ted of the viper because about $200 more for the vipers you're not really able to see the. Difference you know maybe some of you're gonna disagree but this is my review of this product and i can tell you i looked. Again and i couldn't tell the difference between the two the diamondbacks just really very nice. Binoculars they've got some nice weight. To them they're not too heavy not terribly familiar with a lot of the modern optics that are out there but i know I'm very pleased with the weight of. These they're they're not straining on my neck i don't have a i don't have a chest. Carry case i have the carry case that came with him which i don't have to be able to show you today I'll put a picture at the end of the review about that I've got that carry case at home. But you know let's just go over a few of. The features you know first off obviously you have the ability to. Balance the focus on them you know for. Those of you that are not familiar you close your right eye at least with these. At most of most classes that I've seen the focus for the one eye is always on. The right eye so you close your right eye you get them focused so that your. Left eye is seeing super clear I'm. Gonna turn that in just in case that sunshine in their then you close your left eye and you turn this ring on the. Right eye to get it equally focused now that balances because we don't our eyes. Aren't the same on both sides so that's that's a great feature a lot of binoculars have got that most you know decent quality and better have got that really pleased with how easy it was to. Adjust these one of the things i noticed on the diamondbacks is that that right. Eye focus ring is fairly firm which means it's not going to bounce out of position when you're hiking around and. You know scout and crawl into the brush and stuff now the focus ring the focus. Mechanism on these super easy to turn. Super firm the smallest little. Adjustment just gives you a fantastic. Focus you know i can focus out to. You know a thousand yards i can see fairly decent with them obviously you. Now with these at a thousand yards you're not going to have the same quality that you would have with a spotting scope but that's why you have a spotting scope (separate) than these the. Dust caps that come with this you can see on the output side these dust caps fold. Down they've got their own little elastic band on there so it keeps them. On there you can drop them down out of the way and you know they're they're. Pretty secure and then the eyepiece you've got this dual dust cap that. Goes on there one side is notched so you. Can get that off of their pretty easy and the other side is closed loop so it stays on your neck fan I've used these. In a number of different situations today I'm up scouting for hunt and. Coyote we're up here in the high desert of nevada up above the town of pah rump. And you know I'm easily and. Clearly seeing 600 plus yards away today. Definitely take a look at the vortex. Diamondback i can't say enough about them oh yeah one other thing i didn't show you dust caps back on sorry the. Winds kicking up we're probably gonna affect the audio they also have you can. See this they have these adjusters at. The eyepieces so you can set the distance that the lens is away from your. Eyes it's got three you know it slides. But it's got 3d tents there's all the. Way down there's a midpoint and then. There's all the way out, and they lock in. At that but you can adjust a mid way if you need to i keep mine at midpoint. Having them all the way out seems to. Affect my focus and my visual on. Then and having them all the way in you'll find that you get my eyelashes. Will leave marks on the lenses so i got to clean them all the time so playing with him today at midpoint and seeing how i liken that so far like and it's just fine again vortex optics. Diamondback binoculars ten by forty-two. Super pleased with him definitely would. Buy them again if i is something happen with these alright thanks for watching don't forget hit that subscribe button down there if you haven't done that yet and leave me some comments I'd love to hear comments alright you guys have a great day. Alright so here's the carry case for the vortex binoculars you can see it's uh. It's a nice case it's fairly firm i mean. It is flexible its i wouldn't say yeah. That's probably crush proof if that's. That zippered shut but you know folds opens got these bellows sides so it does. Have a carry strap so if you're carrying. This around your neck like so and you. Put the binoculars in you know the lid doesn't just fall open on you there so you can you could use this as your carry case i know there's a lot of other. Products out there that are a little more functional for something like this but it does have the release clips on. Here that's the carry case.

Thank god this has been with sport optics I'd like to introduce you to my cons 10x range-finding binocular the new. Nikon laser force I've become a big fan. Of rangefinder binoculars because they offer so much to our modern hunter of. Course with a rangefinder binocular you can identify and range targets. Simultaneously giving you the fastest shooting solution possible the nikon laser force essentially has monarch 7. Optical systems this means you're getting nikon's monarch 7 series edr extra low. Dispersion glass this is going to offer you a beautiful bright image with sharp. Edges superior resolution and that wide. Field of view associated with high-end icons the laser force range finder. Begins ranging at 10 yards and goes out. To 1,900 yards making these great for. Bow hunting or for stretching out that rifle the laser force features a very crisp. Illuminated display with an adjustable. Intensity giving it great contrast in any light setting the rangefinder. Measures in both meters and yards and it can be set for both actual or horizontal. Distance the horizontal distance feature is an icons angled compensation feature. You want to use the laser force in the. Horizontal distance mode while you're taking those uphill are down drill shots so you can remain on target. Many range finders have a scan mode but. The fast processing speed or the laser force allows you to get great real time. Distance on a moving target without any delay the laser force is a very. Comfortable binocular with a nice rubber armor texture easy single hand use as. All controls are on the right-hand side the left side tube features a die optic. Adjustment and the right side has the. Display focus to get that target and reticle ultra sharpen the laser force. Comes tripod ready and nikon makes a. Great easy to use adapter. Now about the warranty nikon has so much. Confidence in their laser force binoculars that they come with their lifetime no-fault policy this means. You're covered from end to end. Even for electronics so if you run over. This with your truck as long as you have the pieces to return the nikon they'll fix and replace the binocular for you i. Hope you've enjoyed the video I've really enjoyed using Nikon laser force rangefinder binocular if you're. Looking for the laser force or any nikon product please call us at sport optics comm we're very happy to help you any time.

As some of you who follow the channel. No recently my firearms addiction has. Deepened into the realm of long distance shooting long distance shooting is more enjoyable and addicting than i ever thought it would be It's rather exhilarating when you figure. Out your ballistics correctly you pull the trigger and it takes a few seconds. But it feels like minutes before you see that you got a hit on target then it. Takes a few more seconds but it feels like much longer for the sound of that hit on steel to get back to you it's an. Amazing experience that is hard to convey if you've never done it and the time that passes from the trigger pull to the hit to the audible feedback just. Kind of solidifies the amazing task that you've just accomplished You know I'm always looking for high. Quality optics at affordable prices and nikon has always delivered for me i made my first thousand yard shot with a nikon black scope and have nikon products on. Many of my guns I've always been very happy with the value I've got from nikon they deliver a solid scope for the cost. since i got into long distance shooting i wanted to get a really good pair of range-finding binoculars i want something that i can use to locate targets while at the same time determine the range and even use in a limited role as a spotting scope i love the idea of. Being able to locate targets and get the range at the same time instead of finding the target with the binoculars putting those down then picking up a rangefinder and hitting the target with it to determine the distance being able to. Both find the target and determine the distance with one piece of equipment makes things a lot easier and quicker these will also work great and hunting. For the same reason when i saw that. Nikon had an offering i was immediately interested and ever since the first time i picked up the laser force binoculars I've been extremely impressed with the clarity of the glass the ease-of-use Christmas' of display and the overall build quality of the binoculars when. Buying binoculars i don't know if there's anything much more important than the clarity of glass and the idi. Glass nikon puts in their laser force is extremely clear it's hard to film through binoculars so the footage really doesn't even come close to doing it justice. Edie stands for extra low dispersion glass and according to nikon it corrects. Chromatic abrasion that causes color fringing for high-resolution contrast rich images okay so i pretty much just. Read that off the side of the box, but they're really stunningly crisp and clear the rangefinder also works. Extremely well and is easy to use just turn it on line up the reticle on what. You want to get ranged hit the power button again and the binoculars will give you the range the laser force. Binoculars will range distances from ten yards out to nineteen hundred yards on reflective surfaces hard surfaces like a tree will be out to fourteen hundred yards and targets like a deer out to. Eleven hundred i love the o le d-- display it's simple. Clear and doesn't block your view there's also a constant range mode will. Continue to read distances for eight seconds while you move the binoculars these also shut off automatically after eight seconds to keep that battery life long according to the manual one cr2. Battery should last about four thousand uses and there are four brightness settings the nikon laser force as well. Features incline decline technology that. Will allow the range-finding feature to display the horizontal distance or the actual distance to help with those long-range shots up or down hill. The controls are super simple and intuitive and the buttons are located on the right side so that if you're right-handed you can glass your shot calculate the distance all while your rifle or bow are at the ready in your other hand the nikon laser force have. Ten power magnification which is exactly what i was looking for it's a good power to be able to use handheld yet still. Powerful enough to really see well at great distances if you want a more stable platform they can be mounted to a tripod each ocular lens is individually. Adjustable for focus each eyepiece as well. Has turned and slide rubber eye caps that. Will click and lock at several positions to hold proper eye relief the. Objective lens have these really nice tough soft rubber covers that lock into. Place to keep them protected. The nikon laser force binoculars are. Built like a tank with a metal die cast body that is coated in rubber armoring. This rubber coating not only allows the user to get a firm comfortable grip but. Also keeps the binoculars shockproof from small falls in the field. They are also nitrogen purge keeping. Then waterproof and fog proof even with significant changes in temperature which we've had here in alabama lately if all. That isn't enough the nikon laser force binoculars and electronics are covered. By nikon's no-fault warranty Now these aren't cheap however as with all nikon products i think you get a ton of value for your dollar because not only are you going to. Get an exceptional pair of really clear binoculars but you're also getting a top-notch laser rangefinder and these. Are much cheaper than going out and buying those two pieces of gear separately it's also really nice to have. Essentially two pieces of gear in one so. That you're eliminating something that you're bringing in to the field i just. Want to say one more time that the binoculars actually look much better when you look through them in person the christmas and clarity is breathtaking filming through binoculars with all the different lenses from the camera and the binoculars themselves makes it difficult and the images in the. Video really don't do it justice. If you're in the market for a really. Nice pair of binoculars i would highly recommend taking a look at the nikon laser force and remember with the code. Al arsenal v you can save 5% at. Opticsplanet on the nikon laser force binoculars any other nikon product or.

Hi I'm ben with redstart birding and want to show you a little bit about the zeiss terra idi binoculars so typically. You see that zeiss name the german brand. New sinked herself this appears but I'll consider cost thousands of dollars and certainly his ice makes absolute premium. Top-shelf optics we were thrilled when they came out with a terra idi though which was gonna sell for under $400 the. Idi stands for extra low dispersion glass that's one of the things that's gonna set this binocular apart great color contrast really good low-light performance and really worthy of the. Zeiss name some of the features are pretty typical for what you want in a good mid price butt knocker twist up and down eye cups we're gonna make it easy for high glass wearers to use it's got a closed focus well under 10 feet so really versatile for using in all sorts of habitats and conditions and speaking. Of which its waterproof and submersible so if the weather is out raining outside you don't worry about that keeping you from birding with yours i stare at idi binoculars come to the case neck strap lens covers and zeiss is lifetime warranty it's got a 8 42 10 by 42. There's going to be the really popular sizes for bird-watching and if you want something a little bit smaller and lighter way to take a look at the 8 by 32 it's also going to have a little bit wider field of view compared to the other models so that's going to be it. For the terra idi from zeiss a really a nice entry-level piece from a german manufacturer that has been really one of. Our favorites and he's been price binoculars.

Everyone's ivan q badger comm here to. Bring you another gear view and today we're talking about these which are the zeiss terra idi 10 by 42 binoculars back. In a full disclosure been never impressed with binoculars had a bunch as a kid they were usually pretty cheap had. Then in boy scouts stuff along those lines and what it came down to for me is. What do i want this like 2 pounds of glass in my backpack for I'd rather bring snacks, and they never did anything. For me and then moving forward into the military in the marine corps here's these like five pounds steiner binoculars which we're probably really. Good like 20 years ago when they first got issued out and by the time they got in my hands I'll beat up scratched you. Can't see anything through them so fast-forward now as i start to get more and. More into hunting one i realize the. Intended application where they really shine and to actually get turned on to. What you're paying for with quality as. More and more I've gotten into using. Binoculars especially a good pair of binoculars I've come to realize its kind of along the lines of a trigger in. You ar you have a standard m4 trigger. And you use that for a long time all of a sudden when you drop in really nice guys lee super similar matic enhanced. Trigger in there you're like wow like this is awesome huge quality difference. Right so binoculars you use crap ones. For a long time and then when you use good ones you're like okay this is where the money's going like this is the quality like that's what I'm looking for conversely you hand someone a pair of binoculars, and they look through them. Haven't looked through any other pairs of binoculars and I'm like oh that's cool how much are these and you're like oh this is the price, and they're like are you serious because again there's no. Frame of reference these ice thierry. D-10 by 42 binoculars are great back. Here you have a nice big adjustment knob for your focus really comes in handy. See if it's colder than you have gloves easy to manipulate and it's really smooth doesn't get stuck anything along those lines the 10 by 42 is in reference. To tin power and then up front a 42. Millimeter objective lens i find these. Tin by 42 s to kind of be the sweet spot a couple different respects one as far. As tin, they also make a eighth power i like the tin that extra magnification glassy and hillsides and in addition to. That kind of size and weight about four. And a half inches by five and a half inches weighs a little over 25 ounces. Not super heavy not super big kind of. That perfect size and depending on how you want to carry them it obviously comes with a strap you can go throw l in. There and let these guys rest or what i like to do i don't usually have the strap on there cuz i find it gets in the way and I'll just keep them right in front of my hill people gear kit bag. Really handy right there or if I'm driving around it's a lot easier too not. Have that strap hanging off of them when you're trying to pick them up from the center console something along those lines some other notable information. With these terry ds is water-resistant not waterproof on their site it lists. Then as water resistant to 100 mil bears. No idea what that means looked it up one. Mil bar is basically in reference to. Thirty three point four feet underwater. These will not go that far. 100 millibars is basically pointed one bar. So what it really comes down to is don't. Submerge them, but they're good for weather events rain snow stuff along. Those lines don't dunk them as far as. Temperature operating range good from five degrees Fahrenheit up to 140 should. Be good for most instances maybe you don't take them down an article but overall pretty robust binoculars one. Think i did find interesting is these binoculars have a twilight factor of twenty point five what does that mean so. Twilight factor is actually kind of the antiquated metric for measuring optics. Binoculars as far as how much detail you. Can see in low-light not necessarily how much. Light gathering capability that actually hinges on the coatings of the lenses but. How much detail under low-light you can see the way they come to that is a. Formula it is the magnification multiplied times the objective diameter. Lens 42 millimeters then you get the. Square root of that which is about twenty point five what does this mean basically you can see pretty good detail. Even under low light that isn't in. Respect to how well these gathered light and i will say though they do a really good job and that's where that's where. You really get to appreciate binoculars any type of optic is kind of that wolf. Light before dawn after sunset like. Everything's kind of really dark lights going you can still see because with good. Optics they do a great job of gathering light these definitely do that and I'm really pleased with them investment you get yourself a good pair of binoculars you're gonna be using them for years and. Depending on how you want to carry them it also comes with a pretty cool kind of semi rigid hard case on the one side there's belt loops you can throw it on your belt slide it through webbing on your pack however you want to have it and zipper closure as well as this little magnetic top and when it opens it doesn't flop all the way up and so these things aren't going to tumble out smash themselves on some rocks pretty handy depending on how you want to carry it as far as the price point usually around four hundred dollars you can get them through amazon as well some other places but talk to the guys over at base camp. Site comm spell with a k and they were. Cool enough to offer me a number of discount codes for these so if you want. To pick some up reach out to me first I'll get you a discount code pretty much beat any other price you can probably find them for as always thanks for. Joining us to keep agile calm look forward to seeing you next time.

Hey guys welcome back to the camera view stuff and this week i got a pair of. Binoculars let me show you these bad. Boys all right and they are very cool. Very small and they're very good okay my. Only complaint right my only complaint. Is that got a little dust and between. The eyepiece right where you get to. Adjust it okays so let me go back a. Little because the little eyepiece adjustment part that's a good thing right, but they are not the spoof i guess. They're not dusted proof and i don't know. About water haven't dropped them in water or anything like that but i do use them out in the field you know and. There's a lot of dust so the first thing that i noticed after a week of using it in the field was that some dust got it. Just a little bit but you can feel it right and what I'm talking about. Is this area right here this right here. Now this is nice because you know that your eyes right have different visions. Some of us are lucky, and we have the same vision on both eyes not me right. This one has a different i don't know. What it's called but you know this one i. Have to adjust a little bit more right. And once you do that you do the left and. Then your right you adjusted from here to get it nice and focus then you can. Use the big one to focus in and out right so that's what I'm talking about. But they're nice right i believe there. Are $20 on amazon and I'll have the link. Below very durable very nice i grab them. And throw on my truck and then when i go out in the fields i grab one throw in my backpack they're super compact they're very nice. And i mean i think they're very good. Quality binoculars for $20 go out there. And get you a pair i mean this what it. Says a 360 two feet you know of a view. For every thousand yards so i mean. They're really nice they're ten by twenty-five just in case you're asking but I'll have all that information down below right you guys stay tuned I'm. Gonna have some more products like i said i have about four or five other products that I'm gonna be putting out but i like to test them in the field right and these past other than the fact. That they're little dust you know on the adjustment which i don't have to touch anymore okay you're doing this one time if you're using them but if you hand them off to another person he might have to adjust them right anyways very nice. For twenty bucks plus it comes with a little case as you can see all dirty. Dirty case but you want to keep these king right alright guys thank you for. For joining me don't forget to like and subscribe, and we'll see you next week hopefully sooner. With another product bye.

In 2018 sites combined its world-class. Class with some very modern electronics. Rolling bluetooth technology a rangefinder and a ballistics calculator all into one compact binocular it's the new victory rf line, and we're going to. Walk you through some of the key features to start zeiss uses the highest. Quality glass to give you the best image imaginable with the newly developed ultra fl lens light transmission is a. Staggering 92 percent providing outstanding image quality under the hood. These zeiss bios have a built-in rangefinder which eliminates the need for a separate rangefinder in the field using the zeiss hunting app you can build a custom ballistic profile for up to nine different loads and then load them into the binoculars database via bluetooth zeiss's internal computer. Takes into consideration temperature barometric pressure altitude incline and. Decline with holdovers in inches mils. And moa and even if you don't have a. Victory rf binocular the zeiss hunting app comes in handy as it features a customizable dashboard with weather info hunting diary and compass the victory rf. 10 by 42 s have a price tag of $3,400. Which puts them in the high-end glass category but use them for one season in. The field and you'll never look back You.

Hello and welcome to this video review. On our youtube channel today I'm. Reviewing the new victory rf range-finding binoculars they were introduced in 2018 and eva i hope you. Saw our even report about them they were one of the biggest news on eva especially because we all waited for a. Couple of years now that science will refresh their range-finding series of. Binoculars what was really funny that in. The meantime their main competitors they all did new models because the old. Victory rf was the oldest on the market until this year however it they still. Sold well because they were still well-made and so on however technology goes. Advances every year so they show the new. Model this year in 2018 it's made in. Germany it's a true victory and it comes. In four flavors a 242 10 by 42 8 by 54. And 10 by 54 so you have two models for. How it's a daytime hunting and then you. Have two models for low-light hunting this 10 by 42 which we have here it's. Really special because it has actually. No competition as you know the only. Competition which we could look at would be either from leica or swarovski but uh. First of all sasuke doesn't produce anything above 42 millimeters in their. Range finding series so your range is. Either 10 by 42 or a by 42 and then like. Up they have a couple of geog rids. However all of their geo bits are either. Eight-time mag nif a magnification with. 56 millimeter objective lens or 15 so. The only real competition to this would be the jewett hdb which is only. Available 8 by 56 no 10 by 56 and then. They have the normal jewett r which is. 15 by 56 again not a direct competitor to this model here so if you wish to. Have a 10 time magnification and still a little bit bigger lens for low-light size is your only option and there is. Nothing wrong with it because it is really astonishingly good. I especially admire the ergonomics. Because if you would mask this two buttons here nobody would even notice that this is a range finding binoculars. Just look at them they're small compact. Without any sign that they're range-finding binoculars the only sign. Are those two buttons which is almost. Nothing and this is the first time somebody managed to do range finding binoculars which look like normal binoculars which are even compact because with this 54 millimeter objective lens so i said a really smart. Move because they shaved off about 20%. Of mass and size and with their hd. Lenses and t-star coatings and all the. Technology they have the achieved almost. Equal level of light transmission rate. And equal level of image brightness so. This is really usable in low light even. Though they are only 54 millimeters well the objective lens is only 54 millimeters what is true is that normally if you. Look at the ht victory hd which has a. Bikini prism not schreeten pahang like. Here you do gain some additional a transmission so the rain shining. Binoculars will never be just equally bright as the normal however i think that the loss is still minimal and i personally would trade off that. Low-light performance for the range. Finding possibilities mmm this tank 44 by 54 they have 110 meters. Of field of view which is not the best result ever but still it's more than average and more than good enough as you. Can see they have mali bridge design but. Still, they can be the handlink and then. There anomic sits still great i don't think this is a — they have that they. Don't have the open bridge they come. With all the technology sighs have at the moment so lotta tech. Outer coatings to repel dirt and to repel oil and repel water and so on they. Come with t-star coatings the fl concept. The hd concept with all this fancy name. Which at the end they give you superb. Optical performance and this is what is crucial it is crucial to inform all the. The users and customers about all the. Technologies which are inside with all this fl concept hd concept and so on and hd glass and half hour glass and so on. But i think that the end result the. Optics is so good is the most important they do they are heavy. Binoculars this pair weights roughly 1100 grams of 1.1 kilogram and it's 19. Centimeters long however this is still not really a lot for binoculars with 54. Millimeter objective lens, so they are quite short, and they are not too heavy if you take into the consideration the big objective lens and their low-light. Performance they're very short really. Really great resolution edge to edge. Sharpness is great and i would say from. The size they're almost you handle them as a 50 millimeter binoculars not 54. It's really easy they come with 10 years warranty many germany with a really nice bag for carrying so nicely. Designed and the magnet inside carrying. Strap the another carrying strap for the. Binoculars i don't like this is. Something one of the few things i don't like so the objective lens covers i. Think they could have done better i. Think they could make them better the. Eye the eyepieces covers are nicer they. Are soft made from soft rubber these are really. Nice while this i don't like that much. Apart from all the things that i like on. These binoculars i think this is not a big — but still i have to mention it. They also come with a quick guide. With all the features and a longer. Manual the cleaning cloth and so on they. Measure distances above 2300 meters they. Say even 2500 is possible i would say. For most hunting applications one. Kilometer one kilometer and a half is more than enough and what is really. Really good is that they take into the consideration all the elements the. Pressure the temperature of the air and. Everything but matters so they went into. The direction where like event first and. Then swarovski did with their ds1 second. And not size with this rf so that it. Doesn't take into account only the angle at which you are shooting but also the weather which is important that long. Range you think and when you hunt on this instance bigger than 500 meters. Focusing the design is classical size i. Think they also feature this comfort focused concept i really like it smooth. It's easy precise the focusing is very. Nice and also if you are holding them with one hand you can see that there by normally the focusing knob is at the. Right position and you're able to focus with one finger really nicely mint i. Like the focus sick a lot i also think. It's self lubricating but i didn't find. This in any data so i cannot be a hundred. Percent sure but it works nicely i will probably try that really extreme. Low temperatures to see if it works as well as in other size binoculars where. It works flawlessly what is also very. Important is that the diopter settings. Are separated for each high because this. Binoculars have an internal display. Where you see the distance and all other data so you correct the diopter setting. On both ice-born for the image one for the display and then normally you focus with the central mall the. Eyepieces the eyepieces have three positions one. Two three they work well they are stable. They can really offer support and in. This lowest position they are perfect for those who wear glasses like. Myself so i do have to say i have seen nicer. Eyepieces however in terms of. Functioning they are they're superb nothing can can be said wrong about them. The design itself with the mid-size it's minimalistic and this is something what maybe i miss a little bit with eyepieces. If they would do a little more fancy. Design however they work they offer. Different positions they even offer longer i believe, and they're great for. All the users with glasses now what's. More important i did a separate video about connectivity of this binoculars. With bluetooth over bluetooth with their. Size hunting app i really encourage you. To look at this video i will just show. It again for a little bit what you can. Do so when you have a smartphone install. Size hunting gap it's a perfect app in. My opinion the best hunting app on the market at the moment at least from all. The producers of sport optics i have to be honest and not so familiar if. Producers of rifles and let's ammunition are doing also similar apps but in the. In the field of all those who are. Producing sport optics outside this one is the best at the moment at least in my opinion the main reason for that is because it's only one had all others. Have many different apps one for the. Reticles one for the ballistics one for one type of rifle scopes the other for another type of rifle scopes and so on sighs combined everything in one. Single happen i think this is really great so you put in the ballistic. Programs the hunting diary this is really a great feature i talked about this a little bit more in a separate video then normally connected products at the moment size only offers victory. Rf which can be connected and other products you can insert into. Category my products location the map. Where we are at the moment the compass. And so on so the integration of the. Ballistics and how it works you input. All the ballistic table in this app you. Choose which ballistic curve standard. Ballistic curves fits the best front. Size and then you sync the app with. Binoculars and then binoculars will take. Into account all the elements the weather the temperature and so on and. When you measure the distance they will. Help you to go to help gain the. The Best possible accuracy so this is a really good approach and i really like. How it works i also like that you know we'd like you. Had to took out from the. Binoculars the small sd card where you. Put all the ballistics in and then you program it on your computer then you put this small sd card back to the binoculars and it was a hustle normally. The joy of its hdb are little bit older so at that time this was completely normal but with a rf know this works. Flawlessly with bluetooth i encourage you to look at my other video so that i will stop showing the app if i show. Everything again you will not go to my other video so what to say in the. Summary i think that now the cards get. Mixed a little bit because honestly this victory rf they really have a couple of. Advantages against all others especially. This bluetooth connectivity and a great app made bite-size i also think that. Economically this is the way to go because size achieved to produce the rangefinder universe which i have completely the same shape and the same ergonomics as in normal binoculars i. Extremely like the fact that if you is. You would hide these two buttons you will not able to see that these binoculars. Have a range binding capabilities so i. Like the ergonomics i like the styling even though it's not some flashes actually here he had the eyepieces. However they work they are functioning and the whole style is i would say the. Same in all in all parts of the. Binoculars i also like the image quality. The image quality is when you're looking in daytime it's really good the resolution edge to edge resolution the field of view and so on everything is really good especially considering that range finding binoculars usually don't have optics performance or the same level as normal well these do. They come really close to normal you still lose some light transmission rate but this is normal with range finding the numbers you gain range funny capabilities instead i also think that. This 10 the 45 combination is it's its. A smart move because nobody else produces something similar and i also think it's smart move because if you're a long-range hunter you wish to have a. Little bit higher magnification so 10 times is the way to go however a lot of. Hunters will say with a 10 by 40 to the. No cleaners in low light you really. Lose a lot, so we tend a 44 you have 10. Times magnification and you still have some low-light performance and i especially like from size that they went with 54 millimeter objective lenses not 56. So that the binoculars are not too big i like this compromise i also think now. The competition special between life and. Size will be really fierce because now. They are all in the same level when you look at the range finding performance well similar they're all above 2000. Meters which is more than enough for all users it doesn't really matter if one goes to 2500 the other one goes to 2700 it's not a big difference and. This is something good because. Competition always brings better and better products to the users what i don't like is that the price of. All this rangefinders of the top class really went sky-high the price of these. Binoculars is around three thousand four hundred euros but when you consider what. You get you see that it's maybe not so i. Would say to be when you consider what. You get the optics which is almost on. Equal level like with normal binoculars. Of the highest class and you additionally gain range panic abilities. And then you additionally gain the connectivity over bluetooth and all the ballistics data and so on and ballistic calculator well you see that it's worth. It so i hope i covered all the basics i. Always at the end try to say what could. Have been done better in this case know. About maybe only the last part where. They can still do something better is in life transmission rate department where. We all hope that someday arrange funding been offers will be equally bright like normal apart from that i would say it's. Almost a perfect product so thank you. For watching i hope you liked the video i hope you will also look at my video. Where i explain how you connect this binoculars to the app and what the app can do and if you liked everything. Please subscribe thank you. You.

This is another rangers tabletop review of leopold tactical 10 by 50 binoculars. These just arrived in and yeah we woulda. Liked them there are a couple of things that we don't like which we'll go through later the things we do like are. These 100% waterproof nitrogen-filled and fog proof the eye relief is really. Good when using the form blanc for long periods of time you don't get the i stress this is really nice they just. Twist out like this particular. Variation comes with tactical milling. Reticle emr or mil dot reticle i would. Suggest if you're going for long distance shooting long-range shooting then you're going to want the tmr because it's a finer ekta chol and more. Useful for ranging over long distance what we also like as well is this. Actually turns this dial here the. Reticle now you won't be able to see this but if you want to range anything. That's horizontal or vertical but it's. Not exactly 100% vertical or horizontal then this actually adjusts it also if. The binoculars are being passed between two three people that's really useful. For iced basing things we don't like are. These rubbish lens caps we have to say I've lost these probably three times. Already a bit of a throwaway item on an. Expensive pair of binoculars it's its. Not really the right thing to put on léopold these need to be changed. I would suggest something like the steiner design where you twist some off. Pull them off and they just are held on. The strap underneath the binocular world the binoculars are in use these actually. Are really important items if they're. Not built properly and they're lost and. These get damaged then the very. Expensive pair of binoculars is pretty. Much throw away abul so not very well. Done for their pole for these. These also cheap nasty these areas here. Again needs some attention these would have been better in anodized stainless. Stainless steel or aluminum a nice. Black finish over something that's harder than these little plastic things here they don't get top marks for those. Either overall though these are really. Nice we like them just a little little. Things like that they'd fallen down and unfortunately another plus is this as. Well this pack that comes in its one of. The best packs we've seen on the pair of binoculars here at ranges actually nice. Heavy-duty zipper lots of padding inside. It'll pocket in here so you can put any. Lens dust cloths in here and your the. Pieces of maybe any tools there's a. Little bit of room in there you could fit quite a few things than their if. These are dropped these are going to be protected in this case you like that also we like these male attachments on the back this can be attached to your. Tactical assault packs. You've got molly down the side here and on the front overall a very nice. Package that just the lens caps leopold. Change those and these are gorilla a winning pair of binoculars for the price. Probably one of the better ones on the market.

Hey folks have here some steiner. Binoculars steiner out of germany these are the 8. By 42 predator extremes the colors forth. Green they come in this really nice. Steiner case here's the by no sir. The strap attached strap for. This case and there's a couple little sliders here adjustments for the strap. Now in the spirit of full disclosure i. Am a huge steiner fan and it dates back. To my days in the marine corps where a. Lot of my gear tasting gear companies. Come from we use the steiners there and. I don't remember what model it is it's the wide ones, and they were awesome. I mean they were always crystal-clear and a big thing they were tough and let me tell you any gear that can be used by. The marines it is tough because marines break everything and i do mean everything so for these to stand up and not break they're tough and let me tell you these. Are some tough but i healers and then. Also my I've always wanted a pair of the. Steiner binoculars and when i was just over in germany this last summer i got to see a lot of steiners they're very popular over there of course because they are extremely well-made and from. What i found with the germans they don't. Do anything that they can't be the best as if they can't make a product that's the best. They don't make so I'm a huge fan of. German optics and that's not to say there aren't some other optics that come. From other companies countries that are great at making them i know the austrians make great optics i believe the u.s. makes great optics i. Believe there's a lot of good optics coming out of japan also so there's a. Lot of company countries that make great optics but to me that the german optics. Are my personal favorite and these. Puppies here have quite a few features so bear with me i have come on ipad i. Got the web page up i got the owner's manual i got some other resources here so I'll have to confer I'll try to keep. It shortened as concise as possible so. And the first thing i want to go over with these optics and these optics. Have an updated coating on them it's the predator coating we call it and that's whether predator optics but this coating. They have on them allows for animals to. Kind of pop out at you if you would so. What it does this coating it kind of dampers the greens a little bit subdues. Then and not even to the point where it's that noticeable with the human eye because the greens still look really good on this but it allows for browns. And reds to really contrast well so when. You're looking through these wildlife. Such as deer tend to pop out at you a. Little bit more than with standard. Binoculars now i usually this past. Weekend hunting its my first time and i. Have to admit i didn't see anything any. Deer it was a terrible weekend i didn't see any deer with these. Binoculars but i did see other wildlife i saw some squirrels some coyotes and i. Can tell you they do contrast with their. Background a little bit better than with standard binoculars i thought they popped out pretty well i really like that feature i think it's a nice feature and for hunting i think these are about. To me i think the best optics you can. Buy in my opinion. Some other features i really like about this i like these lens caps they attach so there's nothing to lose some of my other optics the lens cap is removable it comes off, and they get lost. These front side lens caps also are. Attached the side here is a little slot, so they actually completely disappear the side is permanently attached it's. Kind of nicely swing away so you don't have any issues you know they don't get. In your way while you're using them but. I do like detachable eyepieces so then. We have right here is the center focusing ring to focus these the first. Time you use them kind of like for signing a gun you put this you twist it. So that it's in the middle of the range and then you use the diopter to adjust. For your eyes once it's focused then. Then you use this for the fine-tuning focusing or the fine focusing as you go. These here also have to give you proper. Eye relief these eye cups come out. Has these little flaps here for to keep the sun out or you can if you don't like them you can or if you don't need them you can fold them away the picture on. Here is i kind of alluded to earlier for. Me to the steiner optics have the most crystal-clear optics that i have personally ever used i know some people say the source keys are the best some. People's opinion i think the price on these things here. Is outstanding for the quality that you. Get I've caught up to msrp is on it let me check here real quick i believe it's five four or five six hundred like that. Let me check i apologize for not having had information it's not here on a. Website but their price significantly. Significantly less than the Sikorsky. Optics which i think is awesome and i. Will as i go through I'll post a price. On their own in the comments just so you know these. Are nitrogen pressure-filled the lenses. Supposed to help with internal fogging in the case of extreme temperature changes that's really important up here in the north where i hunt it's nice and warm inside when you go outside it can be extremely cold they have rubber armor. Right on them and the bottom here has a place for your thumbs kind of comfortable it's nice in glasses it nice. When you have gloves on it helps with gripping and it is nice texture. Here also and then another feature i. Really like about this it's called the nano protection optics and it's their. Protected against environmental impact and has a high water repellency so even. When it's raining you still see well the. Water is going to beat up really nice on it so i need as i said it's the 8 by 40 2's they weigh twenty-six point five. Ounces excuse me field of view is 369 feet at a thousand. Yards i believe it is 42 millimeters the. Dimensions of these in inches is 6.9. Lengths 2.6 height and 4.9 width so if. You have never tried out steiner optics. I highly encourage you to do so and you can even you know it's so a nice thing about optics unlike guns you. Can't really try them out in the store a nice thing about optics is you can go to. The store and try them out you can compare other optics to them look at the. Contrast if you compare these to any. Other binoculars i guarantee they're going to come out favorable especially for the price of these i think they're a. Great value for german optics so as. Always if you have any questions let me know semper fi. You.
