This Steiner "Safari Ultrasharp 10x42" will double as my first good quality glass (age 67). My previous binos (no idea which brand my wife had) only focused on one side, and got lost.
Very clear picture with these which surprised me- despite the reviews- and it has only One focus knob.
I don't need a 'spotting scope'. Seldom need one at the gun club,
and this will mostly be for general use. This is Far handier on a hike, or espionage errand
, than carrying around a target scope.
A friend from Germany told me that he also bought whichever Steiner model because the Bundeswehr uses them. "If it is good enough for the Bundeswehr, it is good enough for us".
Those small covers on the end remain attached.
In the viewing end there is a single, long, unattached cover. Two Slings are included: for both the bino and the case.
