More Info

Compact, light and robust. With its fiberglass-reinforced, waterproof casing, the Terra ED 8x32 binocular from Zeiss fulfills the high expectations of the outdoor enthusiast. The Terra ED line is designed to be compact, light and sturdy. This means: the Terra ED is the ideal companion that weighs little, fits easily into every pocket and is almost indestructible. Whether on long journeys, in the open countryside, at racetrack or concerts, on city tours, in the mountains or on the open seas.

Brilliant, razor-sharp images. You don't need the sun to be shining to get out there to do your thing. That's why Terra ED binoculars combine optical precision and hydrophoic multi-coating to deliver stunning optical performance in all conditions. This state-of-the-art coating ensures beautiful, crystal clear images in low light situations or when you're caught in the crosshairs of Mother Nature's latest hissy fit.

Easy-to-use, quick focusing. The large, smooth-running and easy-access focusing wheel of the Terra ED makes focusing especially easy and fast. Pick up a pair of Terra ED binoculars and their advantages are instantly apparent. The index finger automatically positions itself on the focus wheel. You no longer have to think about how best to hold the binoculars if an exciting scene appears right in front of you. Quick as a flash, you are focused on the object of your interest. You can be sure never to miss out on those unforgettable moments. On the contrary, you have a razor-sharp, ringside view of them.

Close-up field observation. Active outdoor lifestyles demand compact, durable and versatile binoculars. The Zeiss Terra ED delivers razor-sharp images of far-away objects. But it can also observe nature up close with great precision. With a generous wide field of view and a close focus distance of just 5.25 feet, the Terra ED is ideal for nature observation, whether the object is far across the field or in the tree just above you.

User level

User level

Beginner Level - Suited for a wide range of uses, these products are simple to operate and set up. Some initial assembly may be required depending on the type of product. Optical instruments with this rating will have very good optical and mechanical quality. Great for families, young people, and folks who don't want to mess with equipment and complexity. Beginning level telescopes will show you countless lunar craters, Saturn's rings and a myriad of star clusters and nebulae! Referring to the manual is recommended.

Intermediate Level - These products offer higher performance and more advanced features than Level 1: Beginner models. They typically take a bit longer to learn and need some set-up or adjustments. But anyone with the slightest technical bent will have no problem getting familiar with these models. Referring to the manual is recommended.

Advanced Level - These products provide the best performance but may require more skill to master and appreciate. Optical instruments with this rating have exceptionally fine optics and mechanics. Some are easy to use but might be on the large or heavy side. Some are intended for specialized uses. These products will appeal to the more technically inclined. Referring to the manual is highly recommended.

Intermediate
Magnification

Magnification

Also commonly referred to as "power", magnification is a measure of how much closer an object appears when viewed through the instrument. For example, a 10x binocular will make an object appear 10-times closer than it would normally appear. An object positioned 100 yards away would appear as if it was just 10 yards away in a binocular with 10x magnification. The human eye is considered 1x magnification.

8x
Optical diameter

Optical diameter

For telescopes, the optical diameter (also known as aperture) is the size of a telescope's main light-collecting lens or primary mirror, measured in millimeters or inches. Telescopes with larger optical diameters collect more light, which leads to an increase in brightness and image resolution compared to smaller instruments.

For binoculars, the optical diameter (also known as objective lens diameter) is the size of each of the front-facing objective lenses of a binocular measured in millimeters. Binoculars with larger objective lenses collect more light, which increases image resolution and brightness. Binoculars with larger objective lenses are recommended for low light situations, and binoculars with at least 50mm or larger objective lenses are recommended for pleasing astronomical observations at night.

32mm
Field of view - angular

Field of view - angular

The field of view expressed as part of a 360-degree circle. Holding your pinky finger out at arms length is approximately 1-deg wide. To convert this to the linear measurement of "feet at a thousand yards", multiply by 52.5. For example, at 1000 yards distance, a 7-deg binocular will see a width of 367.5 feet (7 x 52.5)

7.7°
Field of view - linear

405.0 ft./1000 yd
Apparent field of view

Apparent field of view

The edge-to-edge angular diameter of the image displayed in a binocular as seen by the eyes of the observer. It is an inherent specification for a given binocular design. The "angular diameter" of an object is defined as the angle an object makes (subtends) as seen by an observer.

61.7°
Eye relief

Eye relief

The distance, measured in millimeters, between the observer's eye and the eyepiece lens in which the entire field of view remains visible. Eye relief varies with the optical design but generally increases with decreasing magnification. Long eye relief is advantageous for observers who wear glasses, as they don't have to put their eye directly on the eyepiece to see the entire field of view, nor do they have to remove their eyewear.

16.5mm
Exit pupil

Exit pupil

The diameter of the circle of light exiting the binocular. Exit pupil is calculated by dividing the objective lens diameter by the binocular magnification. For example, a 10x50 binoculars has an exit pupil of 5mm (50/10=5). Knowing the exit pupil of a binocular can help determine the optimal binocular fro your needs. If a binocular exit pupil is larger than the dilation of the user's pupil, resolution is reduced since the maximum amount of light is not entering the eye. Typically under true dark adaptation a healthy human eye will dilate to approximately 7mm. This number can decrease with age and health factors.

4.0mm
Near focus

Near focus

The minimal distance at which a binocular and/or spotting scopes can attain focus. Near focus is an important quality for bird watchers and wildlife devotees who want to get as close as possible to their quarry.

5 ft.
Coatings

Coatings

Binocular lenses and prisms are often coated with anti-reflective material to minimize light loss as light travels through the multiple optical surfaces of a typical binocular. Coatings help maximize the amount of light transmitted through each glass surface of a binocular, so as much light as possible reaches the observer's eyes to provide a bright and sharp image.
Good lenses are at least "fully coated," with a single layer of magnesium fluoride coating applied to each air-to-glass lens surface. Multiple layers of coatings are even more effective; the term "multi-coated" means one or more air-to-glass lens surface has multiple coatings. "Fully multi-coated" optics are even better, meaning all lens surfaces have multiple layers of anti-reflective coatings applied for maximum light transmission and optimal image quality.

Fully multi-coated
Interpupillary distance range

Interpupillary distance range

The distance between the two pupils of an observer's eyes. Binoculars can be adjusted to accommodate variations in a person's interpupilary distance.
