The Peregrine XP's new lightweight Magnesium housing incorporates Steiner's unique Nitrogen Purging and Pressurization process making moisture invasion a virtual impossibility in any climate. The XP's 44mm objective lenses are nearly 10% larger than a 42mm lenses transmitting more light. The new XP binocular also has an exceptionally large 30 mm ocular lens. These larger lenses combined with XP Lens Technology and the binocular's ergonomic body design with fast focusing system give it rapid handling that makes focusing on close or distant subjects easy and comfortable.
An added benefit is that the new design offers the user an exceptionally high depth of field, uncommon with roof prism binoculars and extremely beneficial in low light wildlife observation. Combined with new, twist-up/down eye cup system that comes standard with flip-shroud eyecups.
The Peregrine XP Binoculars feature an ergonomically shaped rubber covered body in an attractive, dark forest green color. Embedded in the armor, Steiner has used a new gel-filled grip and thumb pad that adds a considerable amount of grip and comfort when holding and viewing with the binoculars.
10x44 Peregrine XP -Higher magnification usually means a narrow field of view. With the 10x44 Peregrine, we've managed to keep the viewing field width very high with an angle of 6.25". The wide field, combined with 10x magnification makes the 10x44 XP the ideal binocular for up-close discovery. The 44mm lenses will deliver more light to your eyes than similar sized 10x40 or 10x42 models.
Nano Protection
The Peregrine XP uses Steiner's revolutionary new lens coating application called "NANO protection" which eliminates rain, snow and moisture from your view. NANO is a permanent hydrophobic coating that is so smooth that it's even smooth at the molecular level. The NANO coating is applied to both the objective and eye-piece lenses.
High Definition Optics
Steiner developed these remarkable optics. The optical formula is our own development using the purest index matched glass, and coatings using rare-earth formulations of titanium, fluorite and other mineral substrates. The result is record brightness and truest color, with optimal contrast.
N2 Pressurization
Like many Steiner models, the Peregrine XP is Mil.Spec (meets mil std 810-E) waterproof and is pressurized at 22 PSI (over pressure 7.25 PSI) with dry nitrogen gas.
Eye Relief
With 30mm wide eyepieces or "oculars", you not only gain a "into the image" feeling, but you also get the highest comfort of any roof prism binocular - making the view very engaging with no light or peripheral interference.
Precision Center Focus
The focus is not too fast, nor too slow - with a silky 1.5 turns, you'll go from the 6.5 foot close focus to infinity. However, you'll be amazed to see that the Peregrine XP offers a much higher depth of field than any similar sized roof prism binocular, so the need for focusing is minimized - making your eyes better, especially in low light or shadows.
Peregrine XP Accoutrements
Some of the simplest external features will be loved by you and copied by our peers. The Clic-Loc strap system makes removal quick, and attachment of your harness a cinch. The form-fitted Neoprene Rain Hood; goes on easy, comes off easy, and stays put when you're carrying your Peregrine XP
Twist-up Eye-cups
With the XP's extensive eye relief, you'll be able to set the desired eye-distance or eye relief for maximum viewing comfort. It's easy to use the XP with or without eyeglasses, or with the convenient glare blocking side flaps, or not.
Gel-pad Thumb Grips
The first thing you'll probably notice is the uniquely "grip-able" surface on the thumb pad area of the Peregrine XP. Soft and confortable - like little pillows for your thumbs. The XP's light weight and comfortable feel in your hands will make you more effective when you're glassing.
