Zeiss Conquest 8x42 HD Binocular

A practically flawless pair of binoculars. It features everything you can dream of in this class of parameters and the result in our test confirms it in full. Even the distortion, which was a major complaint in the 10x42 model (and that set still managed to win our big test of binoculars of that...

No doubt the Conquest 8x32 HD is an outstanding equipment for its price. I bought two of them (one for me, one for my son), and unfortunately one of the front lens cap that I received in the original box belongs to a 10x model and do not fit my bin!

A best buy After 3 months of intense research to find a binocular that would be sharp, durable and "prestigious" without breaking the bank, I chose this Zeiss Conquest HD 8x32 Binocular and I am not at all disappointed. It is somewhat heavier, but in all other ways, I feel, it meets my needs.

I own both the Zeiss 8x32 Conquest and the Zeiss 8x32 T FL Victory, and found some interesting points of comparison. If I were a hunter (I am a bird watcher instead) I would find the Conquest BETTER than the Victory, as there is just the smallest amount of higher contrast in the Conquest.

Very sharp view in center of field. Ok for the price elsewhere in the field of view. Has a bit of chromatic aberration but is not problematic.I didn't like the ergonomics, as the eyecups do not adjust smoothly. I mean that it is extremely rough. This is very weird for an expensive product.

Sharp, clear, built well, nice weight too!

This binocular is ideal for bird watching the definition is stunning. With a great field of view it comes into its own in woods where it can be dark the light transmission is very good it is now my choice of binocular plus as a bonus you can slip them into a pocket so they will be taken on my next...

  Durable, Great Features, Lightweight

After seen all the glory review on the Zeiss, I decided to bite the bolt and shell $900 for Binocular.My previous pair binocular got "sticky" after left in the car exposed to the sun.Hopefully, the Zeiss will survive such condition better.

So great!

  Great Features, Great Picture Quality, Lightweight, Simple Controls

These are great do-it-all binos. The image quality is amazing. Size is just right for travel, birding, etc. Compared these to Swaro 8x30 CL Companions. The Zeiss blow them away in every respect but weight.
