SkyHawk 4.0 is the name of Steiner’s new range of binoculars. Steiner’s top-class optics deliver crystal clear, pin-sharp images, so you can enjoy viewing your natural history subjects in stunning clarity. Handling is enhanced by the Distance Control System which means minimal movement of the focus control is needed to change from viewing a bird in flight at a far distance to a much closer subject. Four versions are available: 10x42, 8x42, 10x32 and 8x32, priced at £499, £469, £399 and £369 respectively. Each pair comes with a case, rain cover, lens caps and padded neoprene carrying strap.
