Clear crisp, focused and easy to use, nice grip, very happy.

Top-notch product!
German quality.

Excellent product. Quality is expensive, but it is worth it. Stable and clear image in any weather situation, both day and night.

I've only had the binoculars for a short time and used them on my last tour of the year.
Clear image, good contrast, easy to grip. Very good light intensity and image sharpness even at dusk and in the evening. A little heavier, but within reason. I think that's also due to the good quality.
I ordered them without a compass because there's more technology in them. According to the motto "keep it simple". I use a bearing compass for that.
The only small criticism is that the bag supplied by Steiner could have one or two additional compartments (inside or outside) (e.g. with a zipper or Velcro). Unfortunately the swimming belt has to be ordered separately... never mind...
A little more expensive to buy, but I haven't regretted it for a moment.
And it's made in Germany

Even experienced sailors think that these are excellent binoculars. Not very sensitive to the correct setting of the eye distance. Compass is well dampened and easy to read. Lens covers are removable and do not get in the way when in use. Stands securely because they are short. It took a moment to understand that the ribs on the eyepiece are also the scale for the diopter setting.

The binoculars are top-notch, as expected. The only drawback is the attachment of the lens caps, which are very easy to loosen and therefore often fall off.

Exactly right for my intended use in various environments (car, coast, rental boat). Price-performance, robustness and ability to be deployed quickly are good.

Even if you wear glasses, you have a sufficient field of vision with them, but this is not a solution for more intensive observation.

What I don't like The round covers for the lens openings are very easy to lose when they are removed. The fastening with a catch on the housing gives the impression that it is stable, but suddenly one is gone. The rubber plugs used for this are much too loose.
