Steiner Offers Powerful Tool for Law Enforcement
with 7X50 and 10X50 Police Binoculars


Police Models are Designed Specifically as Surveillance Aid

MOORESTOWN, N.J. Dec. 1, 2001 – It’s already raining. Now it’s getting dark and a few dim lights illuminate the street. Fortunately, your surveillance isn’t hampered by the elements, as the suspect you’re observing comes into clear view about 150 yards away.

Law enforcement and public safety officers have a professional tool for their efforts. Steiner is introducing the 7x50 and 10x50 Police binoculars with large objective lenses and multi-coated optics on all air-to-glass surfaces to provide a bright clear view in almost any surveillance situation. Unlike other binoculars, the Police models are built based on a rugged, military design concept.

Waterproof, fog-proof and shockproof, and housed in a black, rubber-armored shell, the Steiner Police binoculars perform admirably under the harshest circumstances. Outside, in rain and snow, or indoors, with little to no available light, the Police binoculars help officers detect the slightest movement or activity at long ranges in difficult conditions.

The unit’s ergonomic, contoured shape -- similar to models that Steiner manufactures exclusively for the U.S. Army and U.S. Navy SEALs -- is designed for maximum comfort during extended use, and the rugged rubber armoring ensures a firm grip. At only about 2 lbs., officers on an extended stakeout can glass for hours without arm fatigue.

BAK 4 prisms ensure optimal brightness and clarity in all light conditions, and the Porro prism binoculars are in instant focus once adjusted for the user’s eyes. No additional adjustment is necessary when scanning a landscape from 20 yards to infinity. The Police binoculars feature handsome black color rubber armoring with bold "POLICE" lettering giving them an official look that sets them apart from Steiner’s military and civilian models.

"Steiner’s Police binoculars are designed to last 5- to 10-times longer than comparable models from other manufacturers," said Sven Harms, vice president, sales and marketing for Pioneer Research, U.S. distributor for Steiner Optics. "Their durability and affordable price make them a virtual bargain for agencies that require top-end optics."

They will be sold exclusively to law enforcement and public safety agencies and their distributors.
