Many STEINER marine binoculars feature a precision reticle that helps users to determine the distance to objects. If you know the height or length of what you are glassing it's easy to determine the range. Two examples demonstrate how fast and easy it functions Example: While boating, another boat is crossing your course. How far away is it? If you estimate the mast height of that boat to be 50 feet and the vertical scale read ...

Not only did STEINER invent the compass binocular, our Commander XP models are the most advanced marine binoculars in the world.

Your compass is pre-set for the magnetic field in the northern hemisphere (zone 2). To read a bearing line up the ...

One of the most important parameters of a high- performance binocular is its light transmission, which means the amount of light that ultimately reaches the human eye. In low light conditions such as in rain, dusk or dawn a higher light transmission can make a decisive difference. However, light transmission does not always equal bright- ness. Each binocular has many different values for light transmission, depending upon the wavele ...

With our new XP Technology - the result of many years of research - STEINER solved the puzzle. It allows for the first time to bring all key optical performance parameters to maximum levens at the same time, without compromise. To produce these complex optical coating systems our engineers have developed a new production processes and developed a unique high-vacuum, broad band coating chamber. The end result is a true optica ...
