Zeiss Conquest HDX 8x56

The Zeiss Conquest HDX 8x56 Binoculars – for hunting from a stand until late evening.Twelve years after the introduction of the Conquest series, Zeiss establishes the next generation of premium binoculars on the market with the Conquest HDX devices. These top-class optical instruments will also excite hunters. The Conquest HDX 8x56 is an all-round binocular that offers great optical performance and mechanical reliability in its class at an excellent price-performance ratio.

The optical system
With a light transmission of 90%, the large 56 mm objective of the Conquest HDX 8x56 delivers bright and true-to-nature images without color fringes and color casts even in low light. This is thanks to the Zeiss T* multi-coating of the lenses and the roof prism. Aspherical lenses and ED glass (Extra-Low-Dispersion) significantly reduce chromatic aberration. The field-flattener technology ensures high edge sharpness with detailed results across the entire field of view. The Conquest HDX 8x56 binoculars have a field of view of 125 m at 1,000 m.

Material and workmanship
The housing of the Conquest HDX 8x56 is made of a magnesium alloy and is 2% lighter than the corresponding model of the HD series. Its full rubber armor provides additional protection; it is waterproof, shockproof, and temperature-resistant. The hydrophobic LouTec coating on the lenses causes moisture to bead off and prevents dirt from sticking. The binoculars are filled with nitrogen to prevent internal fogging. Thus, it remains a reliable instrument in every hunting situation to identify game.

Ergonomics
With prolonged use of binoculars from a stand or while stalking, ergonomics become an important criterion. The Conquest HDX 8x56 is tactilely pleasant and intuitively operable, even in cold weather with gloves. Its armor is grippy, and with the precise and smooth focusing wheel, one can go from the close range of 3.5 m to infinity with just 1.3 turns. The diopter is lockable against accidental adjustment, and the eyecups are interchangeable. The Conquest HDX 8x56 features an interface for mounting it on a tripod.
