ZEISS SFL 40 – The New Compact Binocular for More Lightness in Nature Observation

Equipped with sufficient snacks, tripod, spotting scope and binoculars, the large amount of equipment can become a burden, especially on long nature tours, and every adds up. With the new ZEISS SFL 40, we are introducing the newest member of the ZEISS SF line of binoculars that offers exceptional optical performance combined with a compact design and low weight.

The SFL (SmartFocus & Lightweight) combines the advantages of high-performance binoculars with the compact design of smaller binoculars. Thanks to the reduced lens diameter, the use of thinner and more closely spaced lens elements, and the rugged and durable magnesium housing, the ZEISS SFL 40 is an exceptionally lightweight yet reliable companion.

The new binoculars come in two models, the ZEISS SFL 8×40 and the ZEISS SFL 10×40.

Gender, age, or feather coloration – when identifying a wide variety of birds, sometimes tiny details and characteristics provide information about the species being observed. The Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) Concept ensures that the binoculars deliver the highest level of detail and reproduce colors with natural fidelity thanks to a special coating and an improved optical design. The high degree of light transmission and the T* multicoating deliver an accurate image, even in twilight conditions. With a field of view of up to 140 meters at a distance of 1,000 meters and a closest focusing distance of 1.5 meters, the binoculars deliver a perfect overview both from a distance and at close range. Combining high image resolution and immense detail recognition, the ZEISS SFL allows nature observers to distinguish between even the smallest features in plumage and reliably identify different species. This is complemented by the LotuTec® coating on the lenses, which guarantees a clear view even in rain and mud thanks to its beading effect.

When observing nature, sometimes a few seconds is the different between missing or observing a memorable moment. That’s why it’s so important that users can operate the binoculars intuitively and easily. Thanks to the proven SmartFocus Concept and the ideally positioned focusing wheel, users can focus quickly and precisely, even when wearing gloves. In combination with the improved eyecups and the very large exit pupil in relation to the binoculars’ compact size, the ZEISS SFL delivers a comfortable viewing experience, even in twilight.
