ZEISS CONQUEST HD 8×32 T
Zeiss Conquest HD 8×32 T – Binocular. The new CONQUEST HD 8×32 is a lightweight model that is ideal as lightweight binoculars for hiking, traveling and animal observations. Its compact size makes it a convenient companion in difficult terrain. The 8x magnification provides a good overview and shake-free images.
The near setting of just 1.5 meters allows you to experience crisp images and clear colours up close. This is particularly beneficial when watching butterflies or other insects. The CONQUEST HD 8×32 satisfies all ergonomic requirements: the focusing wheel is so conveniently placed that it can always be quickly and easily used.
HD lens system
Observe animals and birds in high definition. The new HD lens system provides exceptionally true and neutral colour fidelity. A visual experience that sets new standards in its class. The tried and tested Carl Zeiss T* multi-layer coating ensures that the ZEISS Conquest HD 8 x 32 T offers light transmission of up to more than 90% – optimum requirements for impressive observation in twilight conditions.
Optimal ergonomics
Comfortable observation is not just a matter of lenses. Ergonomics plays a major role, too – and this is where the modern design of the CONQUEST HD comes into its own. When you reach quickly for your binoculars your index finger sits almost automatically on the large focussing wheel while the remaining fingers rest on the specially moulded grip.
The eyecups round off its ergonomic perfection. Slightly slanted, they are carefully aligned to aid observational comfort. Light and secure handling is combined with superb comfort for your observation of the natural world.

Widest field of view
You can quickly pick out individual animals from large groups and seek out hidden birds in clumps of bushes. The CONQUEST HD 10 x 42, with the widest field of view in its class, is the perfect option in this instance.
As well as having an extremely wide field of view it also boasts very high 10 x magnification. You can enjoy effortless observation and a particularly steady image with the CONQUEST HD 8 x 42. Whichever model you choose, these binoculars promise detailed insights at long range.
Innovative lens coating
Water simply rolls off the lens as it does from a lotus leaf or off a duck’s back. The LotuTec® coating on the lens and eyepiece ensures that water or snow simply roll off the surface of the glass. Since neither water nor dirt can collect on the surface of the CONQUEST HD you can spend less time cleaning and more time watching nature.
Precision at close quarters
When observing at close quarters you can rely on the highest precision. Even close up the new CONQUEST HD shows its strengths. Whether you are watching birds, insects or butterflies at close quarters, with the CONQUEST HD you will be able to identify every detail with an impressively clear and neutral colour reproduction.

Combining high-definition optics and their proprietary lens coatings, the 8×32 Conquest HD Binoculars feature the optical technologies and build qualities one would expect from an optic that was made in Germany by ZEISS Sports Optics. Performance begins with high-definition glass elements that transmit crisp and clear images across the entire wide field of view with minimal distortion.
ZEISS’ T* coatings reduce reflection to improve light transmission, colour fidelity, and overall image contrast to further improve image quality and brightness. Complementing the T* are LotuTec coatings, which are applied to exterior lens surfaces. LotuTec is a hydrophobic coating that makes water bead and run off the lens and makes oils and sap easy to clean off, so the lenses keep clean even in inclement weather.
Built to withstand a life on the trail, the chassis is made of a lightweight and durable aluminum alloy with a protective slip-resistant rubber armour on the exterior. The optical tubes are nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed to be water and fog proof, capable of withstanding up to 400mbar of pressure.
A wide operating temperature range allows them to be used in even the most extreme conditions with ease. Their small form factor and 22-ounce weight make them easy to handle and even easier to stow in a pack, pocket, or bag.
