Outstanding Binoculars
I bought these about 3 weeks ago and I am very happy I did!
The built quality is excellent. After fine tuning the eye relief and diopter/focus setting to my eyes; the optics are bright and clear over the entire field of view. Image quality is exceptional. I tested them in low light conditions where I could not see objects within 100 yards, these binoculars made it possible to see and identify those objects, just amazing! The focusing ring is smooth and fast with perfect clarity. The depth of view is also exceptional. They are very comfortable in the hands. These T1042 binoculars perform exactly as described and what I was expecting from Steiner.

Steiner Quality
Excellent optics in a more compact size. I bought these to compliment my Steiner 1050r binoculars that I also recently purchased. I knew about Steiner quality from previous experience but was not aware of their extensive line of optics until I visited the website. That's what helped me make my selection. Took them out on a hike and the view was excellent.

Another High-Quality Product from Steiner
I’ve only had my new T1042 binoculars for a few days, but they appear to be what I expected from Steiner. I have an older pair of 8x30 Steiners that i’ve used mostly for air shows. We’re going on a walking safari next summer, needed a second pair, and it was recommended to get 10 power. I chose the Tactical over the Safari model and I’m pleased with the clarity at long distances.

Best binoculars ever
These are the best binoculars I have ever owned. I expect a lifetime of use hunting, shooting, hiking and whatever comes our way. The clarity is phenomenal. They are excellent under low light conditions. There are a dozen coyotes in coyote heaven that can attest to their quality.

I'm am torn between the safari ultra sharp 10x42 or the tactical 10x42 for birdwatching and general nature wildlife. Can I get some input here please.
The Ultrasharps would be ideal for birdwatching.

I am stuck between the T1042 and the T10422r. They seem to have near the same specs, any help on choosing would be appreciated.
The two are identical in every way save for one - The T1042*r* includes the SUMR (Steiner Universal Milling Reticle) for rangefinding, and a right-side eyepiece adjustment for focusing that reticle.

Greetings, I'm looking at 3 models of 10x42. 10x42 Tactical, Blue Horizon, Safari UltraSharp. These will be used for Elk, Deer, Antelope hunting. Which model has the best glass and which model is best suited for the above hunting? Thank You!
The Safari Ultrasharp's would be the best choice for hunting due to the glass they use, and the lens coatings.
