STEINER Nano-Protection® Imagine the scene: You’ve already spent hours up in the hide; the moon is casting a dim light on the edge of the wood when suddenly you spot a herd of wild boar, you can just make them out. You take aim and the thin beam of light acquires its target... and a shot breaks the silence.

At the same time, and if light is sufficient, it also offers high magnification at long-distance, the highest level of detail recognition for a final sighting and a pin-point accurate shot. After all, why should light conditions prevent you from hunting, when you want to?

To achieve this you need to have a rifle scope that boasts a performance well above the norm. Thanks to the 56 mm lens and the unique Diamond-­ Night-Coating of the HD optics, STEINER has managed to achieve a superb light yield across the entire system of visible light. In order to not only enable the observation and sighting of game with the night binocular 8×56, STEINER has applied its many years of experience to develop the all-round Nighthunter Xtreme 3-15×56. Its bright, contrast-rich imagery and the innovative illuminated reticle enables a straight and true shot in the poorest of light.

5-Power Zoom

As in the highly regarded STEINER binoculars, special attention is given to intuitive operation in the Nighthunter Xtreme rifle scopes. Especially good grip characteristics guarantee secure handling even with gloves. All settings are also easily readable from the firing position.

The 5-Power Zoom factors always offers the correct magnification and a generous field of view. The set magnification can be read off the firing position.

Based on practical experience with hunters from all over the world, STEINER has defined fundamental standards that are featured in all Nighthunter rifle scopes:

Extreme ruggedness Highly resistant materials and precise construction give the rifle scopes extreme shooting stability, even when fitted to the largest calibres.

STEINER Diamond-Night-Coating By developing this completely new type of Diamond-Night-Coating technology, STEINER has developed optics that are fully attuned to hunting and which set new standards. The use and combination of rare fluorides and mineral substances ensure unrivalled light transmission across the entire light spectrum. The images are razor-sharp with the highest level of contrast – right to the edge. Contours are always clearly and distinctly visible and diffused light is reduced to a minimum. These factors guarantee the best possible conditions for observation even in the worst light conditions.

HD

STEINER High-Definition-Optics Optimally suited for regular, professional use. A highly specialised coating provides first-class light transmission. The images are pin sharp and of the highest contrast – right to the edge. Diffused light is reduced to a minimum. Contours are always sharp and distinctly visible, even in poor light or at the onset of dusk.

STEINER Smart Illumination The reticle’s illuminated red dot on the 2nd focal plane is characterised by extreme brightness and also remains easy to recognise in very bright environments. At twilight and at night the illumination can be finely dimmed. An innovative movement sensor deactivates the illumination as soon as the weapon has been put down. As soon as it is taken up again the illuminated red dot activates and the memory function returns it to last setting. The automatic off function after 3 hours without activity ensures long battery life.

STEINER NoNoise The Nighthunter Xtreme concept is optimised for silent operation. Rubber armouring on the protruding operating elements ensure effective sound absorption.

P

STEINER Nitrogen-Pressure-System Fogging or formation of condensation on the inside of the scope is completely eliminated by this high-tech solution from STEINER .

Parallax adjustment (Nighthunter Xtreme 3-15×56) Prevents any long-distance aiming errors outside the parallax view due to astigmatic aberrations. Setting the target distance compensates for astigmatic aberrations and also optimises sharpness.

Water pressure proof

2m

Zubehör The Nighthunter Xtreme rifle scopes come complete with well thought-out accessories. The spare battery for the reticle illumination is located in the lid compartment. The tough neoprene case offers protection for the scope optics, can be removed quickly and quietly and can be used as a base on which to rest the rifle.

Nighthunter rifle scopes resist water pressure up to 2 m. Special sealing techniques make this possible. No dust, no dirt and no moisture can penetrate inside.

Temperature resistant Even temperature variations of -25 °C to +65 °C will not adversely affect the functionality of Nighthunter rifle scopes.

Neoprene protective cover with integrated cleaning cloth

STEINER Nano-Protection®

Made in Germany

The hydrophobic coating gives the lenses a dirt- and water-repellent surface, thereby protecting against external effects and making cleaning easier. Rain, snow and moisture disappear from the field of view.

The rifle scopes in the Nighthunter series are manufactured in Germany and tested under the STE INER quality standard.

Fogging up or the formation of condensation inside the binoculars is totally prevented by this high-tech solution from STEINER.

STEINER ComfortGrip GEL

Laser Range Finder 1,700 Exact determination of range to the observed game or object thanks to laser technology. Distances up to 1,700 m are possible, depending on the surface and the weather conditions.

Fast-Close-Focus Quick focusing when changing distances from close-up to infinity. The focusing wheel with stepless focus permits quick, comfortable and easy focusing. The advantage: rapidly variable, cushioned focusing.

The Steiner ComfortGrip System guarantees uniquely comfortable handling. The Technogel® thumb depressions give a sure, light and pliable grip, which prevents premature fatigue and permits a considerably longer period for observation. You won’t want to let these binoculars out of your hands!

Highest optical perforMance

Perfectly camouflaged and still spotted immediately. Thanks to the unique contrast enhancement feature of STEINER Dynamic-ContrastCoating, animals have no chance to hide. Dynamic-Contrast-Coating helps you spot hidden wildlife by blocking the colors of haze and foliage, enhancing the visibility of other wildlife colors like brown or red. It enhances the contrast of animal bodies to be silhouetted against their surroundings. Game and wildlife pops out of background bushes, trees and shade. With STEINER Cobra binoculars you simply see more!

STEINER High-Contrast-Optics

STEINER ComfortUse

STEINER’s High-Contrast-Optics give outstanding viewing whether for beginners or passionate nature observer! All lenses and prisms are manufactured with precision and are specially coated. You get highcontrast, bright views with natural colour definition.

The STEINER binoculars are particularly intuitive in their use. Their particularly balanced grip adjustment functions make them easy to use even with gloves.

STEINER Dynamic-Contrast-Coating The innovative STEINER Dynamic-Contrast-Coating increases the contrast between game and its natural habitat. Game, despite its camouflage is easier to trace and quicker to locate.

Based on practical experience with hunters from all over the world, STEINER has defined fundamental standards that are featured in all STEINER binoculars:

Extreme ruggedness STEINER binoculars have an extremely compact and tough design and master the most demanding of situations. We have employed the material Makrolon® to make the casing even more impact resistant and thus considerably more rugged.

Ergonomic eyecups Thanks to a practical twist function the eyecups can be easily adjusted for use with or without glasses. The soft and skin-friendly ergonomic eyecup caps provide protection against annoying, incidental light as well as draughts. Two carrying variants are possible: 1. Ergonomic – for ideal conformity to the shape of the face. 2. Folded over – for use with eyeglasses.

STEINER Nitrogen-Pressure-System Fogging up or the formation of condensation inside the binoculars is totally prevented by this high-tech solution from STEINER.

Water pressure proof

XL field of view High-quality accessories

Binoculars from STEINER resist water pressure down to a depth of 3 m. Special sealing technologies make it possible. No dust, no dirt and no humidity can penetrate into the binoculars.

Every binocular is equipped with carrying strap, rain protection cap for eyepieces and objective covers.

Temperature resistant

3m

Above average field of view ensures situational awareness and comfortable observation.

Even temperature variations of -20 °C to +80 °C will not adversely affect the functionality of Nighthunter rifle scopes.

Fast-Close-Focus Quick focusing when changing distances from close-up to infinity. The focusing wheel with stepless focus permits quick, comfortable and easy focusing. The advantage: rapidly variable, cushioned focusing.

NBR-Longlife Rubber Armouring

NBR STEINER ClicLoc Strap Attachment With the carefully thought-out STEINER strap attachment, the binoculars always remain firmly in the strap! The carrying strap, can, however, be released and refastened in one easy move. The comfortable strap and floating strap can be switched quickly and easily.

22

The especially durable NBR -Longlife Rubber Armouring is resistant to the effects of oil, acid or weathering. The surface always stays easy to grasp and slip-proof even in extremely wet conditions, heat or cold.

STEINER NoNoise The STEINER hunting concept is optimised for silent operation. Rubberised armouring of the protruding controls ensures effective sound absorption.
