ZEISS Introduces New Conquest HDX Binoculars — 8X, 10X, 15X
ZEISS has introduced an advanced new line of binoculars, the Conquest HDX series. These have ED glass — “ED” stands for Extra-low Dispersion for vastly reduced chromatic aberration. The new Conquest HDX binoculars also have a robust, weatherproof design. They are available with three objective lens diameters (32mm, 42mm, and 56mm) with 8X or 10X magnification options. Plus the biggest 56mm model is also available with 15X magnification.
Here is a comparison of the size and weight of the 8X versions. NOTE: These are ALL also offered in 10X, and the biggest 56mm variant is offered in high magnification 15X. These Conquest HDX binoculars start at $979.99 retail price for the 8x32mm model.
ZEISS Conquest HDX binoculars offer great optical quality with 90% light transmission. ZEISS FieldFlattener Technology provides high resolution over the entire field of view and the T* lens coating helps provide high contrast images even in adverse light conditions.
ZEISS Conquest HDX binoculars boast a lightweight magnesium housing plus full rubber external armoring for durability and weather protection. These binoculars also have a hydrophobic ZEISS LotuTec® lens coating. ZEISS states that: “Whether in extreme temperatures, in wet conditions or in direct sunlight — the Conquest HDX is durable, waterproof, fog-proof, and shockproof[.] The Conquest HDX combines premium optical performance, durability, and ergonomics.”
The Conquest HDX focuses quickly and precisely, even when wearing gloves. The eyecups adjust to four different positions, and there is a lockable diopter. The Conquest HDX also has a handy tripod adapter. That will work well for the 15X version when used for long-range spotting. CLICK HERE for ZEISS Conquest HDX detailed product information.
