About Steiner
Karl Steiner established Steiner Optik GmbH in 1947, turning it from a one-man factory to a 50-plus employee company within six years. Offering products ranging from small cameras to binoculars and special lenses, Steiner soon turned his attention to professional high-quality binoculars. From the beginning Steiner Optiks has focused on creating new optics technologies, including such innovations as rubber armoring, the first binocular with an integrated compass, the first binocular with an optical coating to protect against harmful UV radiation, the pocket-size binocular, and the Predator lens coating to increase animal contrast against wooded backgrounds. Today, Steiner manufactures binoculars for the military, marine, hunting, outdoor, birding, and leisure industries.

Sports reviews of Steiner 8x30 Military/Marine Binocular

Customer Review: Real Bargain for the Price
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Steiner has been making outstanding optics for years and the 8x30 M/M is another fine example. They are tough as a tank and crystal clear. Whether you are spotting deer at 400 yards or watching your kids soccer game the picture is always crisp, clear and requires no adjustment with Steiner's "sport auto-focus" system. This may sound like an advertisement for Steiner, but I am just a another COMPLETELY SATISFIED CUSTOMER. Sure, you can buy better optics.....but at 2,3,4+ times the price. Why?

Customer Review: Shop the rest, buy the best, Steiner can't be beat.
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I spent weeks looking for the best set of binoculars for hunting and work. I have found that some have a better warranty such as Nikon but, I could not pass on the Steiners. I have used Steiners at work for years and they hold up well to abuse and will probably last a life time if handled under normal conditions. I hunt year round and love the fact once the eye pieces are set I don't have to change them. I can see from 20 feet to infinity without adjustment.

Customer Review: a little bit expensive but worth every penny!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

these binoculars are crisp and clear,they have a good feel in the hand and are lightweight.

Customer Review: Extremely rugged and an overall good value...
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars

This binocular is seems extremely well constructed and rugged. The image quality is good (though not great). The sport focus system does not really work from 20 yards out (as advertised). It's fairly sharp from 70 yards or so out, but I've found I have to re-focus for the 20-70 yard range. The focus mechanism is fairly stiff, so it does stay put once focused. Despite the minor shortcomings, this binocular was exactly what I was looking for - lightweight, rugged, decent image, reasonable price.

Customer Review: Stiener Binoculars 8 X 30 Marine
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars

I was very disapppointed by the poor quality optics of these binoculars. Steiner has a supberb reputation but eidently they are producing a low quality product at this level to get to a low price point. Typically steiner sells at twice this price so the old adage "you get what you pay for" is true in this case. The optics on the Bushnell or Nikkon at half the price are as good or better. Don't be fooled by the Steiner name on this model.
