Remarks:

The “little Commander” looks and feels like a small edition of the famous Steiner marine binocular (see separate post “Steiner Commander 7×50 XP”). It delivers decent performance – not as good as the “big” 7×50 Commander, in particular, stray-light suppression is only satisfactory and edge sharpness is well below that of the 7×50 model, but this 7×30 provides good central sharpness and is very compact and lightweight.
