   Bought the Steiner – “Military/Marine 7X50 Binocular,” less than a month ago and every one on Bridge Watch wants to “Borrow” it. This has made it so that it will be the library- like “Borrowing Unit,” and thus purchased this Steiner -“Navigator Pro 7X50 Binocular,” for exclusive use by this writer. It is superior with enhanced coatings for all circumstances eliminating minor night distortions that the Military/Marine unit has. Hefty, well balanced, and crystal clear- advanced coatings on optics all makes this unit: Outstanding. It is pricey but if marine safety and navigation are salient to keeping Safety At Sea, plus “Intra- Coastal Water Way” use – this unit has no rivals for value and utility. If economy is warranted, stay with the “Military/Marine” unit, which will -in fact- fit the bill, but again everyone will want to “try it out,” andmay never be returned. Update: This binocular is now over two years old and operates just like it didright out of the box, even with hard marine use in all forms of dirty weather and rough water. This speaks well for itself for quality and unsurpassed utility, plus having a life-time-warranty, as long as it is treated as any precision optical instrument, using the neck strap at all times and casing it when not in use.Both the U.S.N. and U.S. Coast Guard use 7X50 Binoculars for General Bridge Watch plus for Look-Outs,as the greater the magnifications yields increased “Magnification Image Movement,” and for light-gathering capabilities for Night Vision and Astronomical Purposes Seven (7) Power is judged the most versatile. Steiner is the choice maker for many navies of NATO nations, with the U.S.M.C. using Steiners,except these are for military purposes and hence carry a very heavy purchase price.Sad to have learned that Steiner of Germany has -in fact- discontinued making this Outstanding Binocular, going from “BAK4 Prisms,” to cheaper and inferior “Schmidt-Pechan Prisms” which have latent defects by having more “Light Bending Characteristics,” and hence less light transmission, especially lacking in Night Vision Requirements both for Navigation and Astronomy. Tomahawk Tactical Supply is offering this now discontinued unit with a 50% Discount and took advantage of purchasing another for gift purposes. The replacement binocular is called the “Navigator,” which has a heavier price and using more plastic in the body to reduce:production costs, size, weight and focal length. The “Schmidt-Pechan Prisms” were -in fact- made for “Roof Prism Binoculars,” which are less bright and less sharper image than binoculars with the “BAK4 Prisms” as the “Steiner Navigator Pro.” If one wants to “Fact Check,” use the intenet and look up “Inferiority Of Schmidt-Pechan Prisms Compared To BAK4 Prisms For Binoculars.”

   Thus model in my opinion is the best value if you’re in the market for a high-end marine binocular. It has the durability, auto focus, and capabilities of a high end binocular, but hits a reasonable price point by eschewing some of the arguably gimmick features and unclear value-adds you see in expensive binos, even in the Steiner line.
