The Steiner M1580 15×80 Binocular provides substantial optical performance for demanding observation tasks. Utilizing 80mm objective lenses, this optic optimizes light transmission, crucial for maintaining clarity in diminished light environments and across extended observation ranges. The fixed 15x magnification facilitates detailed target identification and analysis.
Key Features
Integrated Ranging Reticle
The M1580 integrates a versatile ranging reticle, enabling accurate estimation of target height and distance. This capability is critical for long-range target analysis, complementing precision rifle marksmanship.
Stabilized Compass
A fluid-damped, HD stabilized compass provides precise bearing data, mitigating deviation during dynamic movement. This feature establishes the M1580 as a reliable instrument for navigation, surveillance, and tactical field deployment.
Robust Construction
The Makrolon housing, reinforced with NBR Long Life rubber armoring, forms a rugged, lightweight chassis engineered to withstand impact up to 11 Gs. Steiner’s Floating Prism System employs flexible silicone lens mounts to absorb severe shock without compromising optical alignment or structural integrity.
Advanced Optical System
Multi-coated optics optimize light transmission, yielding bright, high-contrast images with accurate color rendition. The Sports-Auto Focus system permits initial individual eyepiece diopter adjustment, maintaining sharp focus from 20 yards to infinity without subsequent adjustment.
