User questions & answers

Question:	So these note extremely compact and yet the product dimensions show 8.5 x 5.6 x 2.9 inches, but 8.5 isn't compact, so ]what is the actual folded size
Answer:	Width of the area you can see is 341 yards, at 1000 yards.
Question:	Do these binoculars come with the following accessories (rainguard, tethered objective lens covers, neck strap, case
Answer:	C1 - Made in Philipines
Question:	Where/which country are these Terra's 8x25 made
Answer:	Both will have benefits and disadvantages. 10x50s will get you closer and might have better detail with less light but the 8x42s will help you track birds that are moving around a lot and they are smaller and lighter so you’ll more than likely want to carry them around a lot. I personally think 8x42 are an awesome balance of zoom, brightness size and weight.
Question:	What's the max pupil distance
Answer:	B series have better glass, are made of metal and made in the USA. Biggest differences you’d see would be sharper focus and brighter in low light hours. I have the B.2 and would say to someone who uses the binos during hunting season or every now and again, you should save the $600. If you will spend hundreds of hours behind the glass spend the excess and save your eye’s. The B series are also heavier.

Question:	The zeiss binoculares come with a strap, but there is already a strap that holds the eye covers on. Do you attach the eye cover to neck strap
Answer:	We took the connectors off the eye covers and connected them to the neck strap and just place the eye covers on loose for storage without connectors. We think they connected them for shipping purposes but it makes it complicated to figure out what to do with the strap.
Question:	Where does it made Germany
Answer:	Designed by Zeiss, made in China.

Question:	Made where
Answer:	Germany
Question:	Is the subject Zeiss model the Victory FL T* verson? The T* designation is left out of the description which describes a special lense coating.Thanks
Answer:	Zeiss web site states: "All VICTORY models have a T* multi-layer coating on every surface that is subjected to air. A technology, which enables high light transmittance. In contrast to the older models, the "T*" is not part of the product name anymore." Ergo, all Victory FL models have the T* coating, though it is explicitly included in the product name for the newest version.
