Great Gear: Zeiss SFL 40 Compact Binoculars

Zeiss’ newest member of its SF line of binoculars, the SFL 40 comes in two models, SFL 8x40mm and SFL 10x40mm, and thanks to the reduced lens diameter, the use of thinner and more closely spaced lens elements and the rugged and durable magnesium housing are exceptionally lightweight. The model’s new Ultra High Definition (UHD) concept offers exceptional color fidelity and high image resolution, and T* multicoating delivers an impressive image even in twilight conditions. Zeiss’ proprietary FieldFlattener technology provides edge-to-edge clarity, with a wide field of view of up to 420 feet at 1,000 yards on the 8x40mm model and a close focusing distance of 4.9 feet. MSRP: $1,799.99/Both models. Contact: www.zeiss.com
