Designed as the perfect "fast binocular," the Steiner 7x30 Navigator Pro with Compass is ideal for people who need a high-performance binocular with a navigational compass for locating fishing hotspots, racing, or general navigation.

The binocular includes a compass with a built-in vertical and horizontal mil reticle.

The Navigator Pro measures 6.8 by 2.2 by 4.6 inches (W x H x D) and weighs only 20 ounces, making it the world's smallest fully featured marine binocular. To help you track moving objects, the Navigator Pro incorporates Steiner's auto-focus system. Once set for your eyes, the binocular keeps all objects in focus at distances from roughly 20 yards to infinity. Because of the greater depth of field in the binocular's porro prism, you can scan the entire seascape without having to readjust the focus.

It's the built-in compass that really stands out, however. The right-side compass is illuminated electronically, allowing you to find a bearing instantly in the dark. Also equipped with a range-finding horizontal and vertical mil reticle, the compass helps you quickly locate navigational marks, hazards, harbor entrances, boats, and other manmade objects. Other features include anti-haze CAT optics that block glare without sacrificing brightness, 7x magnification with a wide field of view; and an attractive navy blue armor. The Navigator Pro with Compass carries a 10-year manufacturer's limited warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Marine Binoculars, June 17, 2010

After having used inferior products for years, I decided to step up to a pairof Steiners. I was dead set on a pair of 7x50s, but was fortunate to use a friends 7x30s a few weeks ago. The 7x50s are great for low light and to remain shipboard. However, in my opinion they are a little too heavy for extended use for taking bearings and hanging around one's neck. A hand-bearing compass is certainly light, but can often be of little use when the bearing is to a distant or small mark. The 7x30 Pro C (with compass) solve all these problems. And are light and small enough to pack in your carry-on when you are flying to the Caribbean or Mediterranean.

I bought mine from B&H Photo (perhaps the best store in NY) and they came with lens covers, rain guard, strap and carrying case.

The Steiner Navigator Pro binoculars are excellent. Great performance in a small package. I am disappointed that, unlike previous Steiner binoculars I have owned, these did not include the protective lens covers.
