Steiner - 10x32 Merlin Binoculars - 432

If you need high performance for faster discovery, especially of birds on the move, take a close look at the new light weight alloy bodied Steiner Merlin. They are precise, yet amazingly rugged and also fully waterproofed for even the rainiest days.The optics are made with premium optical glass and are coated with our own natural color transmission multi-coating which boosts light transmission much higher than similar binoculars in this price range and yields extraordinary clarity, resolution and color fidelity.Focusing is our unique "Fast-Focus" system which turns from close focus to infinite distance in two full turns of the focus wheel, for razor sharp fine tuning. The focusing is smooth and precise, and it's waterproof.Since birds are skittish by the presence of bright or light colors, Steiner tried the opposite approach with the exterior finish of the Merlin: the almost transparent neutral color on the Merlin is a unique earth tone brown; chosen by Steiner's development staff and birders as a color least noticeable to birds.If you are looking for a powerful and portable binocular, stop the search. The 10 x 32 Merlin is the perfect tool for the birder on the move. Their size and magnification make them a great choice for distance viewing in a variety of conditions. At twenty ounces they weigh the same as the 8 x 32 while providing higher power for spooky or distant birds. Waterproof and shockproof the 10 x 32 Merlin can take years of outdoor use.

The case is very unique feature in itself. It is a thermo-formed PVC that basically adds about another cushioning layer to the outside of the binocular. The attractive sleek design looks good and is perfect for travel. A strap for the case is also included.

All models are tripod mountable and are threaded in the center-hinge assembly in the standard _-20 tripod threading size. Simply unscrew the cover cap and attach a tripod adapter which will attach to tripod or viewing post.
