Frequently asked questions
How does Conquest HD compare to Victory SF?
Victory SF is Zeiss's top-tier flagship - better glass, wider field of view (FL flat-field), more ergonomic balance. Conquest HD is 1-2 tiers below the SF but notably more affordable. For most amateur/enthusiast use the Conquest HD delivers outstanding performance at a more realistic price.
What is LotuTec coating?
Zeiss's water-and-dirt-repellent coating on external lens surfaces - modelled on lotus leaves. Rain beads up and runs off rather than smearing, and fingerprints are easier to clean. Useful on frequently-used outdoor binoculars.
