ZEISS SFL 8×40 Binoculars – Lightweight, Compact, SmartFocus Optics
The ZEISS SFL 8×40 binoculars combine lightweight portability, premium optical performance, and SmartFocus technology, making them ideal for birdwatching, wildlife observation, and outdoor adventures. Designed for generations of use, their durable magnesium housing ensures long-lasting reliability without adding unnecessary weight.
Every gram counts: With a compact design measuring just 144mm in length and weighing only 640g, the SFL 8×40 binoculars are up to 30% lighter than comparable models. Zeiss reduced the lens diameter by 2mm and positioned thinner lens elements closer together, providing high-quality optics in a slim, ergonomic package.
Exceptional optical performance: Featuring ZEISS’ Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) concept, these binoculars deliver vivid, true-to-life color reproduction and crisp, detailed images. With a field of view of 140 meters at 1,000 meters and a closest focusing distance of 1.5 meters, you can enjoy a wide overview while capturing fine details.
Designed for all conditions: ZEISS’ LotuTec® coating repels water and dust for a clear view in any environment. With 90% light transmission and ZEISS T multi-coating*, the SFL 8×40 ensures bright, precise observation from dawn to dusk.
Ergonomics and SmartFocus: The focus wheel, perfectly positioned in the DoubleLink Bridge, allows fast and precise focusing with only 1.4 turns from close focus to infinity. Comfortable eyecups, a large exit pupil, and intuitive body design provide effortless, immersive viewing—even with gloves.
