STEINER LAUNCHES WILDLIFE BINOCULAR SERIES TO ENHANCE OUTDOOR DISCOVERY

Steiner’s 8.5x26 and 10.5x28 Wildlife Binoculars Offer Excellent Power/Brightness Combination in Compact Package


Moorestown, NJ., Dec 15, 2003 – Birders, naturalists and hunters who endure long hikes and the elements to see the most precious scenery that nature has to offer, will appreciate the attributes of Steiner’s Wildlife series of compact, extremely bright binoculars. With high-contrast optics in a compact, waterproof and durable rubber-armored shell, the 8.5x26 and 10.5x28 Wildlife deliver crystal-clear viewing from bright sunlight to darker, dusk or dawn conditions.

With fully multi-coated high-grade optics that enhance brightness, color and contrast, the Wildlife heightens the outdoor experience, enabling users to spot the subtle details that differentiate species of plants and animals. Featuring exceptional color fidelity, the Wildlife series depicts colors naturally for easier identification. With a fast center-focus dial, the Wildlife allows users to get close-up views of nature at a moments notice.

At 8.5- and 10.5-power, the Wildlife models provide more power than other models in their class, with no compromise to optical performance or in portability. Ergonomically designed for maximum comfort, these roof-prism models weigh 12 ounces or less and can be conveniently slipped into a pack or pocket, when embarking on any adventure. Exceptionally long eye relief makes them very comfortable, both with and without eyeglasses.

Unique to the Wildlife and several of Steiner’s other outdoor binocular series, these binoculars are wrapped with a rubber armoring which makes them nearly invisible to animals. The armor, made of a matte, earthy brown silicon rubber reflects no light at all, only absorbing it – while protecting the binocular from bumps and jolts and also keeping it stealthy and silent. The Steiner Wildlife is shock and waterproof. Guaranteed to be 100% sealed against dust, dirt and moisture, the Wildlife is a reliable and rugged companion for backpackers, hunters, hikers or campers.

These high-powered tools are designed to observe nature from great distances, but with close-focus range to within 10 feet, the Wildlife binoculars are just as useful when studying nearby subjects. The Wildlife offers 16 mm of eye relief, with wrap-around eyecups that block distracting side light. The eyecups can also be pushed back when wearing eyeglass or sunglasses.
