Description
Zeiss Victory SF 10x42
Take your observations to the next level with the Zeiss Victory SF 10x42, designed to help you rediscover the joy of birdwatching. These binoculars are built to experience the outdoors and feature a lightweight, yet sturdy design with ergonomic features that enable you to enjoy extended spotting sessions, regardless of the weather.
The Zeiss Victory SF 10x42 binoculars are perfect for nature enthusiasts, featuring a 10x magnification and a 120m/1000m field of view. With a close focusing range of 1.5 metres, you can enjoy large and detailed images of birds and insects from a comfortable viewing distance. Zeiss have constructed a well-balanced design to ensure the Zeiss Victory SF 10x42 have a comfortable grip and steady observations, reducing fatigue and strain.
92% Light Transmission
The Ultra-FL Concept contains several SCHOTT fluoride glasses for absolute colour fidelity, brightness, clarity, and the finest resolution of details, even in harsh conditions and the most challenging environments.
Extremely wide field of view
With birds often hiding in dense cover, it’s essential that you have a wide field of view to allow you to spot any slight movements. The wide field of view of the Zeiss Victory SF 10x42 increases the observable area of interest by up to 20% in comparison with other binoculars. Depending on the model, the field of view is between 120 m and 155 m, giving the user an impressive overview
An exceptional viewing experience
Natural, true-to-life colour rendition, a bright viewing image and finest resolution of details. The UFL concept delivers them all. In the Ultra-FL Concept , several elements made of SCHOTT fluoride glass are combined in a system that delivers absolute color fidelity, brightness, high contrast and the finest resolution of details.
Rapid focusing
The SmartFocus feature is exceptional as it allows you to respond quickly and intuitively due to the improved focusing speed. The focusing wheel on the Zeiss Victory SF 10x42 is positioned in the triple-link bridge to ensure a comfortable and natural hand position. The anti-slip surface makes for easier and more precise operation, allowing for ideal focusing with a maximum of only 1.6 or 1.8 turns (depending on the model).
ZEISS T* Coating
The ZEISS T* coating ensures that you get clear and high-contrast images even in low light conditions or during twilight. However, there is no fixed formula for building up the layers of the coating. Instead, it is a constantly evolving technology that is tailored to suit different glass materials and requirements. As a result, the coating's composition may vary from one lens to another.
ErgoBalance Concept
Thanks to the ErgoBalance Concept, the Zeiss Victory SF 10x42 are ideally balanced in the hands and enable prolonged and steady observation with minimum fatigue by reducing stresses on the muscles of the upper and lower arms.
A clear view, whatever the weather
There are always exciting things to be seen in the world of nature – even in wet weather. This is why ZEISS developed LotuTec®. A coating for the lenses of binoculars and spotting scopes that enables a clear and unhindered view in all weather conditions.
