The <strong>ultra-high-definition (UHD) concept <\/strong>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 to identify even the smallest features and to target the game confidently. This is complemented by the LotuTec\u00ae coating on the lenses, which guarantees a clear view even in rain and mud thanks to its beading effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"834\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/uhd-hunting_EN.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"5869\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/uhd-hunting_EN.png\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/?attachment_id=5869\" class=\"wp-image-5869\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/uhd-hunting_EN.png 1000w, https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/uhd-hunting_EN-600x500.png 600w, https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/uhd-hunting_EN-768x641.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/uhd-hunting_EN-640x534.png 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 98vw, (max-width: 1199px) 64vw, 770px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/Zeiss_Sydney_2111_6443-klein.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"5870\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/Zeiss_Sydney_2111_6443-klein.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/?attachment_id=5870\" class=\"wp-image-5870 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/Zeiss_Sydney_2111_6443-klein.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/Zeiss_Sydney_2111_6443-klein-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/Zeiss_Sydney_2111_6443-klein-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.zeiss.com\/sports-optics\/hunting\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/Zeiss_Sydney_2111_6443-klein-640x427.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 98vw, (max-width: 1199px) 64vw, 770px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>When observing during the hunt, sometimes even a few seconds can be crucial in order not to miss the perfect moment for a responsible shot That\u2019s why it\u2019s so important that users can operate the binoculars intuitively and easily.
