Glass

The lenses on the ALPEN OPTICS Apex Steady 16x30 HD binoculars are made from outstanding high-definition glass, allowing you to view animals and landscapes in high resolution and fascinating detail. Thanks to the high light transmission, images appear bright and clear even in adverse light and weather conditions.

Coating

The Apex Steady binoculars also come with first-class coatings for an optimal viewing experience. ALPEN's exclusive UBX multi-layer coating significantly increases the light transmission, while the premium PXA phase coating delivers outstanding contrasts and a crystal-clear image. Another highlight is ALPEN's premium LPE (Lotus Pearl Effect) lens coating, which ensures that water droplets drip off the lenses and wash away dirt during rainy weather.

Sturdy, weatherproof and user-friendly

The Apex Steady binoculars have a sturdy design and are perfect for use on hunting trips and outdoor adventures. They feature a comfortable rubber armouring for an optimal grip. The premium binoculars are also splashproof and therefore suitable for use in rainy weather or foggy conditions. In addition, the lenses are protected against fogging up from the inside during abrupt changes in temperature.

Also suitable for glasses wearers

The ALPEN OPTICS Apex Steady 16x30 HD binoculars are also ideal for people who wear glasses. Simply fold down the twist-up eyecups to look through the binoculars with your glasses on. The LE eyepieces have a long eye relief so that you can comfortably see the entire field of view. And thanks to the dioptre compensation, you can quickly adjust for differences in vision between your eyes.

Crystal-clear images with premium quality optics

Unlike the standard BK-7, the optics are made from BaK-4 glass (barium crown glass) that produces even sharper and brighter images. The high-quality BaK-4 glass optics are used in all ALPEN Optics products sold in Europe.

Special coating for more clarity and contrast

Thanks to the first-class PXA phase coating, these binoculars allow you to take in every detail in crystal-clear, high-contrast images.

Detailed, high-resolution images

Ideal for hiking, hunting and trekking – the high-definition optics produce an outstanding image in all types of conditions. The surroundings are rendered in high resolution and stunning detail. In addition, the high-performance HD glass has a very high light transmission, and produces bright images even in adverse weather and light conditions.

Brighter observations

The super high-resolution coating on the prism produces stunning images. It transmits the light better to your eye, allowing you to view mesmerising up-close images of animals and nature.

Weatherproof design

The binoculars are filled with nitrogen, which prevents the inside of the lenses from fogging up and obstructing your view during abrupt changes in temperature.

Waterproof design

The housing features a splashproof design, which protects the optics during rain and adverse weather.

Tripod connection thread

Thanks to the tripod connection thread, the optics can be quickly mounted on a tripod so that you can enjoy shake-free images of animals or nature.

Easily adjustable for glasses wearers

Thanks to the twist-up eyecups, the design is also suitable for people who wear glasses. The distance between your eyes and the lenses can be easily adjusted to allow you to see the complete field of view.

Water-repellent coating for unobstructed view

Thanks to the exclusive ALPEN LPE water-repellent lens coating, water drips off the lenses just like a lotus flower! This ensures that dirt is washed away during rainy weather to give you an unobstructed field of view.
