I need binoculars for my little boat. I have been told the Steiner
Commander V model is excellent, and it costs about 700 eurobucks. For
example it would have these features:


My recommendation: try both binoculars, at best at twilight. It is not
only a question of facts, but also of the subjective preference.
I decided to buy a Commander III a couple of years ago, but I also
thought about buying a Fujinon. After testing both, I decided to take
the Steiner (which was much more expensive). However, it is a lifetime
investment.

The quality of Steiner is excellent. But I also know people who are
very happy with the quality of Fujinon and made very good experiences
with them.
