Champ 10x26 is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 25.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Steiner Lite I bought a pair of Steiner Champ 10X26 binoculars about a month ago. I already own a pair of Steiner Predator Extreme 10X42 binos which I have used for about a year and am immensely pleased with. I wanted a smaller pair of binos for carrying in the field but have had poor luck with other brands. When I saw the Champ, I tried them out in the store and was amazed at the clarity and sharpness of the view, and they are even better outdoors. They are far superior to any of my other "pocket-size" optics. I am looking forward to using them this coming hunting season (and also at the upcoming Shania Twain concert).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect backup The 10x26 Champ has fast and easy focus, and is a great backup for longer treks when I do not want the size and weight of bulkier binos. Steiner just plain delivers on this one, with sharp optics and no noticeable eye strain. I highly recommend these for anyone who needs a compact binocular of very high quality.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nothing but the best! I purchased the Steiner Champ 10X26 for an up coming trip to Peru. They are just the right size for traveling. They are light in the hand and easy to adjust with one hand. Objects are very clear! I look forward to using them in Peru and future ventures. As a merchant marine officer, the name Steiner are known for their quality and durability in the offshore business.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from compact model with great clarity was the goal Received this compact model as a gift. The clarity and sharpness of this models exceeds all others previously tested in local stores. Light weight, folds up small enough to place in a shirt pocket will make it a great piece of equipment for fly-in hunting trips.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good Glass Great performance from a shirt pocket sized lightweight binocular. Build quality is readily apparent. Superior in dim light to a major competitor's version, at much less cost. Not sure how Steiner can achieve this, but i'm not complaining.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Won't Weigh You Down I am a senior female, and for years have used my husband's very heavy Bushnell binoculars. He purchased these Steiner lightweight optics for me, as a Christmas gift. I love to watch nature, and these are perfect.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great deal Bought from amazon at closeout price. Very nice glass. I've used Steiners for 20+ years and like them a lot. These are smaller and have a focus knob. The constant focus on my older pair is easier to work with.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great size - very handy The compact size was a great benefit when we went through the Rockies. The binoculars once showed that it was NOT a bighorn sheep - not Steiner's fault. For general use I would recommend the 7 x 25.

Hi, I'm looking for a pocket sized binocular and am wondering if the 10X26 is my best bet, or if I should consider the 8X22. I could spend up to $300. Other recommendation?

Asked by: Marco
The Tactical (T824) binoculars offer the highest quality in that price range for the ultra-compact form factor.

I have double image vertically.  How can I fix it? It is very annoying. I have the Safari 10x26 which looks just like The Champ

Asked by: Tom B
You'll want to contact the Steiner Service center, as double image means that the binoculars are no longer collimated. steiner-optics.com.repairs 888.550.6255

I have the Steiner Champ 10x26 binoculars.model number is 06 208731 black & silver unusual in the fact they are branded for the 2006 FIFA football World Cup, My question is I can't find any online information about them and if they were a limited edition

Asked by: Mike123
They were just a limited run for FIFA. Otherwise the specs are the same as the standard model that was in production at the time. https://www.steiner-optics.com/legacy-products/champ-10x26?bvstate=pg%3A2/ct%3Aq
