SteinerSafari UltraSharp 10 x 26 Binoculars, Compact, Large Magnification, Robust, Waterproof, Ideal for Travel, Hiking, Concerts, Sports and Nature Observation

Bought these to replace the identical ones we had for years and left behind on a trip.Very good value, compact, easy to use.

I suppose you could say that I’ve been a “binocular-aholic”; I’ve owned a dozen different types and brands. My goal has been two-fold. First to have them be small enough (and rugged enough) to have them with me most of the time when I’m out. Second, I need them to be strong (and clear enough!) so that I can see the DETAILS of wildlife, or a boat, or a group of people in the distance. I even tried the Leica version once, seeking their high quality optics. But, alas, they had to be sent back: too fragile! On the other hand, these Steiner glasses (for about a hundred bucks), are STRONG, SMALL, and RUGGED! I am very happy with them.

Very clear vision, light weight and perfect for travel. Just back from the Cinque Terre and this model Steiner did the job. While on the ferry going from village to village we could clearly see - in sharp detail the shoreline and the villages. Standing on the ground looking up at the Tower of Pisa...clear as a bell with excellent detail. No prism edging just clear vision. No stabilizer nor auto focus just a simple good pair of light weight 10x26 binoculars. Our goal was to keep the bulk and weight down in our shoulder / tote bag. If you plan to study objects through a pair of binoculars for an extended period of time these are not for you. If you want an inexpensive no frills travel binocular with good optics this model is a good choice. I read many reviews on Amazon before the purchase. We did not notice any of the "Cons" listed in some of the reviews. That said, those reviewers seemed to desire higher end binoculars for advanced viewing. I've used the $1K and up optics and wow those are amazing but to heavy and way too much risk for travel.

I have had a pair of these for over 10 years. I bought this pair for my son. He fell in love with them.

I used Steiner binoculars in the army and loved the quality. These are a super deal for the price and quality.

Light weight, smooth adjustments, great sharp image, great value. And not made in that C word country not to memtion the great warranty. Love these glasses. For bow hunting tho i need an 8x set so guess what, I'll order myself a set of those as well.Love Steiner and i will stay with them. I have a set of Zeiss that are great but the rubber eye cups dry rotted off and its a bear trying to communicate with them. They were suppose to send me some replacements but that never happened. Bye bye Ziess, hello Steiner.

This is just perfect for lightweight travel and I lived this item!!

. . . I’m keeping them myself. Bought myself the Nikon Trail Blazer’s & the Steiner’s for my wife. Needed small ultra lights for an Africa trip next year. I’m a Nikon fan boy & I gotta tell you I sent the Nikons back. These Steiner’s had more precise focus fixed well designed eye cups. The Nikons were the twist out type too loose to hold position. The eye relief on the Steiner’s much better. I may let her use my, er her, new Steiner mini’s.
