ZEISS SFL 12x50
50 mm bright. 42 mm light.
The ZEISS SFL 50 binoculars offer premium optics in an exceptionally lightweight and compact design, rivaling traditional 42mm models. Combining outstanding optical performance with portability, they are the perfect choice for those seeking optical excellence and convenience.
With its 12x magnification, the SFL 12x50 excels in long-distance observation, enabling birdwatchers to spot and identify distant species with remarkable clarity and detail.
Experience nature in all its splendor
The Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) concept features a special coating and an improved optical design that ensures the binoculars deliver the highest level of detail and reproduce colors with natural fidelity. This makes it possible to precisely identify the smallest features in the plumage and reliably distinguish between species.
SmartFocus Concept for an intuitive and precise handling
The SmartFocus concept makes it possible to focus quickly and precisely – without having to spread your fingers. The focusing wheel, perfectly positioned in the DoubleLink Bridge, offers the highest level of operating ergonomics, requiring only 1.4 turns from close focus to infinity and capable of being rotated precisely even with gloves on.
A clear view, whatever the weather
There are always exciting things to be seen in the world of nature – even in wet weather. This is why ZEISS developed LotuTec®. A coating for the lenses of binoculars and spotting scopes that enables a clear and unhindered view in all weather conditions.
