Their incomparable optics deliver precise, clear and razor-sharp pictures. The Comfort Balance System ensures they always fit into your hand perfectly. The NighthunterXP 8x44 and 10x44 offer up to 25% more exit pupil area than with com-parable, competitive products. A close-focus range of 2 metres means you always have everything under control. The simple handling of the NighthunterXP 8x44 and 10x44 is enhanced by the open, extremely light and stable design. You therefore always have one hand free to respond to unforeseen situations right away.

If you are after greater magnification, we offer the NighthunterXP as a 10x44 model.

The new professional binoculars from STEINER: RangerPro.

Our versatile RangerPro models are a new addition to our hunting range. They set completely new standards in their class. With outstanding optics with a wide field of view, rug-gedness and comfort, these roof-prism binoculars are for the professional huntsman and discerning amateur alike. Compact and powerful they offer a unique close-up range and are also incredibly robust, thanks to a housing made of extremely tough plastic, that was originally designed for space travel.All that at a very affordable price.

The innovative design of our RangerPro series is bound to impress with its smart styling and superlative handling fea-tures such as ergonomic thumb grips and NBR rubber armor-ing. This features a patterned, non slip surface. This ensures these binoculars are especially secure and comfortable to use, even over long periods.

RangerPro 8x56: The special binoculars for hunting at night or in low light.

The RangerPro 8x56 is our special low-cost model for active low light hunting. Its superb optics combined with high lumi-nosity mean that it offers all the features of professional binoculars for difficult light conditions, at a really accessible

8x42

The RangerPro 10x42 is the ideal companion when active hunt-ing is intended. Besides the benefits of the RangerPro models already mentioned, these handy and compact binoculars quickly deliver razor-sharp images, particularly over long distances. This is primarily achieved by their outstanding optics combined with high-quality lens coatings. In addition, the phase-corrected roof prisms ensure bright, clear and high-contrast images with excellent colour reproduction. An unprecedented level of precision for optical adjustment was achieved during development of the RangerPro models through the use of new materials offering much greater rigidity. However much you move, you won‘t lose sight of your target.

The RangerPro 8x42 is especially suited for hunting until twi-light whilst offering all product benefits of its big brother, the 10x42.

Our hunting programme is rounded off by the compact, lightweight stalking binoculars RangerPro 8x32. They have been especially designed for daytime applications and are valued by many hunters as the perfect backup binoculars for spontaneous usage.

NighthunterXP – The Expert hunting binoculars from STEINER. All benefits at a glance.

STEINER High-Definition XP-Optics:

NighthunterXP 8x56, 7x50 and 8x30

These extraordinary lenses have been developed and tested by STEINER during years of research. The result is optics that have been especially optimised for hunting. The combination of rare- earth fluorides and mineral substances used here guarantees unprecedented light transmission. Images will be razor-sharp with maximum contrast – right to the edge. Contours are always clear- cut and plainly visible, with light scatter being cut to a minimum. So guaranteeing first-class results even with extreme weather conditions or as darkness falls.

NighthunterXP 8x44 and 10x44

High-tech phase correction delivers precise and detailed resolution and true colour images. The roof prism system of the NighthunterXP includes a specially developed dielectric mirror which reflects up to 99% of incoming light. This mirror also lengthens the life of the coating, so ruling out any risk of the mirror deteriorating over the years, as happens with conventional binoculars. The above-average objective diameter of 44 mm guarantees bright, detailed and brilliant images.

STEINER Nano-Protection®:

Unmatched clear vision is offered by STEINER‘s tried and tested Nano-Protection®. This provides lenses with a dirt and water repellent finish, so protecting them from the unpredictable elements. Rain, snow and moisture just disappear from view. Clean- ing is far easier, while stubborn dirt becomes a thing of the past. The ultra-fine hydrophobic coating on the objective and ocular lenses is extremely robust and ensures your binoculars will deliver high-contrast, bril-liant images for years to come.

Softgrips 8x44 and 10x44:

STEINER‘s Comfort Handling System guarantees unique comfort when using your binoculars. Our new Softgrips ensure a firm, com- fortable grip without being heavy on the thumbs. This eliminates pressure points, particularly if you are watching game for long periods while also giving the NighthunterXP excellent balance.

STEINER Eyecup Systems:

Twist-up Eyecups NighthunterXP 8x44 and 10x44

The new ergonomic Twist-up Eyecups offer optimum protection from incidental light from the side. They do not just block out troublesome reflections, but also deliver an extremely bright and vivid image. Three eyecup positions are available; the classic cylindrical position, an ergonomic position and a position for people who wear glasses. If the ergonomic eyecups do not fit your eyes properly due to the distance of your eyes, they can be altered as required using the fine adjustment mechanism even after reaching the end position.

ClicLoc Eyecup System:

NighthunterXP 8x56, 7x50 and 8x30

Switching quickly and easily between three options. The new ClicLoc Eyecup System allows you to choose between three options with a single movement: Ergonomic to mini- mise light scatter, cylindrical for everyday usage and adapted for wearers of glasses.

STEINER focusing Systems:

Fast-Close Focus NighthunterXP 8x44 and 10x44

Just touch the central focusing wheel with your finger to immedi- ately see details with absolute sharpness. The NighthunterXP‘s Fast-Close-Focus system means you will no longer waste time fiddling about with the wheel. With a close-focus range of 2 m, the NighthunterXP guarantees maximum comfort with perfect focusing in the shortest possible time.

Sports-Auto-Focus:

NighthunterXP 8x56, 7x50 and 8x30

STEINER‘s Sports-Auto-Focus makes handling especially comfortable. Unless you wear glasses, simply adjust the two setting rings on the eyecups to “0“ for razor-sharp images – from 20 m to infinity.

Nitrogen filling via 2-way-valve technology:

Fogging-up or the formation of condensation inside the binoculars are ruled out with this high-tech solution: Temperature fluctuations between -40° to +80°C will not affect your binoculars. Thanks to our valve technology servicing is possible at any time, even after many years. Your binoculars will be ready for action at any moment, no matter how bad the weather. NBR-Longlife rubber armouring:

This specially developed chemical formula is not only extremely robust, but also ensures a very good grip, whether in heat, cold or rain. The rubber armouring is resistant to oil, acid and salt water and makes your STEINER binoculars even more robust whilst also preventing irritating noises.

Extreme ruggedness:

The NighthunterXP‘s light high-tech housing can be relied on for unparalleled stability. The use of fibre-reinforced polycarbonate Makrolon® that is both temperature-resistant and corrosion-proof plays a key role with models 8x56, 8x30 and 7x50. A high-pressure cast housing from a special magnesium alloy is used for models 8x44 and 10x44. These materials not only guarantee the housing is extremely shockproof, but also minimise the weight of the binoculars while providing a very compact design. This means you and your binoculars from the NighthunterXP series are equipped to deal with even the toughest conditions.

ClicLoc Belt Attachment:

STEINER‘s clever ClicLoc Belt Attachment ensures your binoculars are always firmly secured, yet can be easily detached and reat- tached with a single movement in no time.

Standard accessories:

The ocular rain protection cover that comes with the binoculars is completely waterproof and prevents contamination by rain or dust. It is made of neoprene or plastic depending on the model. The scope of supply also includes lens covers and a high-quality case.

RangerPro – The Professional hunting binoculars from STEINER. All benefits at a glance.

STEINER High-Contrast-Optics:

RangerPro 8x56, 8x42, 10x42 and 8x32:

Fast and more accurate identification of game hiding in its natural environment is guaranteed by our High-Contrast-Optics. The good depth of focus and improved colour contrast offered by the RangerPro series has been achieved by the use of an eco-glass free of heavy metals. The higher light refraction ensures better reflection in the prism, so delivering above-average image quality.

The tried and tested silver surface refinement of the phase-corrected roof prisms results in high-contrast images with excellent colour reproduction. The optical system is thus designed to deliver especially high contrast values for night vision to make targeting game easier in the dark.

Robust construction with high levels of functionality:

The entire series of RangerPro models has been designed using a new, fibre-glass reinforced high-performance plastic material. This offers maximum resistance to mechanical stresses in comparison with commercially available synthetics, so ensuring that the optics of the RangerPro binoculars are especially well protected.

An unprecedented level of precision for optical adjustment has also been achieved here. The innovative high-tech material used for the housing offers much greater rigidity, mak-ing it particularly resistant to outside influences such as impacts or chemicals. When combined with the Nitrogen Pressure System and water pressure proofing up to 3 metres, you can rely on your RangerPro model being especially durable and requiring low maintenance.

NBR-Longlife rubber armouring and thumb grips:

A secure grip and a non-slip surface are essential features if binoculars are to be comfortable while out hunting. Our new NBR rubber armouring featuring a patterned, non slip surface is resist- ant to oil, acid or any weather conditions so you won‘t ever lose your grip. The rubber armouring also ensures that these binocu- lars can be handled without emitting any noise. Even when you are on long trips, the comfortable thumb grips prevent you from feeling tired whatever the situation. With the RangerPro you‘ll always have a firm grip on things whether it is hot, cold or wet outside.

Functional ergonomics:

Twist-up Eyecups:

Even if you wear glasses, the Twist-up Eye- cups fitted to the RangerPro series offer all hunters convenient adjustment in three positions. These eyecups are made of soft silicon that is kind to the skin. Their ergo- nomic design offers protection from irritat- ing incidental light from the side.

Fast-Close-Focus with the best refocusing range of its class:

Fast, reliable focusing even if you are wearing thick gloves? No problem with the RangerPro extra-large focusing ring! Even in cold weather you will be able to focus quickly and reliably. The look of this ring blends in perfectly with the up-to-date design of the RangerPro series, so combining functionality with modern styling.

Superb field of view:

You will enjoy a superb field of view thanks to the sophisticated optical design of the RangerPro series. The RangerPro models offer excellent results when compared with competitive products within the same class. This means you will have a clear view of everything when out hunting.

Nitrogen filling via 2-way-valve technology:

Fogging-up or the formation of condensation inside the binoculars are completely ruled out by this high-tech solution. Even tempera- ture fluctuations over the entire temperature range will not affect your binoculars. Our valve technology allows them to be serviced at any time even after many years. Your RangerPro will be ready for use at any moment, no matter how bad the weather.

ClicLoc Belt Attachment:

STEINER‘s clever ClicLoc Belt Attachment makes sure your bin- oculars are always firmly secured, yet can be easily detached and reattached with a single movement in no time.

Standard accessories:

The standard accessories supplied with the RangerPro models include a case, lens covers (which are inserted under the objectives so preventing them from getting lost), a neoprene rain hood as well as a connection for a tripod. These accessories are rounded off by a padded, non-slip neoprene carrying strap that is kind to the skin.
