Steiner 8x30 Predator Professional Binoculars

Comments about Steiner 8x30 Predator Professional Binoculars:

I do alot of big game hunting and I have several pairs of binoculars. I wanted a binocular that I could use and not be bothered with the aggravation of having a heavy, clumbsy hunk of metal and glass hanging around my neck and bumping into and tangling with everything in the stand. I wanted clear optics that are easy to focus that provide sharp clear images. These are absolutly my favorite all-time optics. And I don't have to have purchase an insurance policy to recover a major financial loss if i lose them. Get you some!

This was my first foray into better quality binos, and I was shocked at how much better things looked through them than a well known $100 pair of Japanese optics that I owned at the time. The contrast and the way things stood out just blew me away. They work best in the environment they were intended for--the woods. The trees seem to jump out at you, as do whitetail deer! After owning this fine pair for over 10 years, I finally broke down and bought a high grade pair by Minox, as well as Brunton. I had the big showdown and found the newer binos to be substantially better out in the open, or over long distances, and in low light conditions. Keep in mind they were 2 and 4 times as expensive though, with larger and more powerfull lenses. Use these Steiners in the woods and you will never be disappointed!

I was able to spot movement in high grass and identified groundhogs with these binoculars. The problem I had was my scope isn't designed to accentuate browns and reds like the binoculars so I wasn't always able to find them through the scope. I'd go back to the binoculars and find it then back to the scope and nothing.
I wish Steiner would build a scope with these lenses.
