]]>Another unique feature of Zeiss binoculars is their use of special coatings on the lenses. Zeiss uses a proprietary coating called T* (pronounced "T-star") that helps to reduce glare and improve light transmission, resulting in brighter and more detailed images. This coating also helps to repel dirt, water, and other substances, making the binoculars more durable and much easier to maintain. T* Coatings are found on the SFL models.
Zeiss FL & SFL - Peak Performance
The ZEISS SFL binoculars are designed to be as lightweight and compact as possible, making them a perfect addition to the SF family. The new Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) Concept ensures true-to-life colour reproduction and a high level of detail, allowing you to experience special moments with ease. The SmartFocus Concept makes the focus wheel perfectly positioned for fast and precise focusing, even with gloves on. The optimised ergonomics and large exit pupil provide a relaxed and undisturbed viewing experience.
With a field of view of up to 140 metres at a distance of 1,000 metres and a closest focusing distance of 1.5 metres, the SFL 8x40 binoculars provide a perfect overview combined with precise detail recognition. The lens diameter has been reduced by 2 mm, enabling the use of thinner lens elements at closer spacing and reducing the binoculars' weight by up to 20% and their volume by up to 13% compared to the ZEISS Victory SF models. As a result, the SFL binoculars are up to 30% lighter than comparable products from competitors.
