The Steiner Optics 10x42 Predator Binoculars are built to provide superior performance in all weather conditions. The combination of magnification and objective lens diameter presents a wide field of view with a bright, high-definition image that makes finding and identifying game through dense stands or across wide fields easy.
Optical Performance
- 10x magnification brings distant subjects in close for detailed observation and identification
- 42mm objective lenses keep the overall form factor small while offering the low-light performance required for hunting, birding, and observing wildlife when many animals are most active
- Compact roof prism optical path ensures the optical tubes are thin for easier handling
- Extra low-dispersion HD glass reduces the appearance of chromatic and spherical aberration to improve color rendition and reduce distortion at the edge of the view
- Predator Diamond coating improves light transmission and contrast for high-definition views
- Wide 60° apparent angle of view presents an immersive observational experience with edge-to-edge clarity and reduced appearance of distracting hand-shake
- 324-foot field of view at 1000 yards
Use and Handling
- Closed-bridge configuration provides a solid and stable platform for the internal center focusing mechanism
- Fast-Close-Focus wheel requires minimal rotation for quick transition from close-up to infinity with tack-sharp clarity
- Left-eye dioptric correction enables users to customize the focus to correct for their individual eye strength and prescription
- 4.2mm exit pupil will cover pupils as they open and dilate in low light to ensure the entire scene stays in view without vignetting
