The Victory 8x56 T RF* from Carl ZEISS are the first 56mm twilight binoculars to combine a built-in laser rangefinder with the BIS® Ballistic Information System. These high-performance binoculars are a world first, offering hunters precise distance measurement and holdover calculation, whether hunting at night from a stand, stalking during the day, or carrying just a single pair of binoculars. Compact and similar in weight to popular 8x56 and 10x56 models, they extend functionality into darkness with advanced electronics. Accurate range information is crucial for mid- to long-range shooting, particularly in unfamiliar terrain, open landscapes, or mountains, eliminating guesswork. The high-performance optics deliver bright, high-contrast images even in low light, making them perfect for hunting until late at night.
The Victory RF binoculars combine daytime and twilight performance in a single device, offering precise distance measurement and holdover calculation, setting a new standard in hunting optics.
The 56mm four-element, achromatic objective lenses with fluoride elements provide sharp, high-contrast images. Abbe-Koenig prisms and specialized coatings ensure maximum light transmission, allowing detailed game identification even in fading light. The elegant design and ergonomic controls further enhance usability.
The built-in Class 1 laser measures distances from 10–1200 meters (10–1300 yards) in less than a second. A self-illuminating LED display with automatic brightness adjustment shows the four-digit result directly in the field of view. One-touch operation avoids measurement errors from shaky hands or unintended targets, while a scan mode allows fast measurement of moving objects. Units can be switched easily between meters and yards.
The Victory RF models are the first high-performance binoculars to integrate a ballistic computer. After measuring distance, the system displays the exact holdover point based on the selected ballistic curve—e.g., 'H10' means aim 10 cm high. Hunters can choose from six pre-programmed curves or create their own using the ZEISS online cartridge database. The system accommodates different zeroing distances (100m or GEE) and automatically adjusts for variations, providing maximum flexibility.
A rugged magnesium housing with rubber armor protects against impacts. Large, ergonomic controls include a focus wheel, range button, and BIS® Set button. Eyecups lock in four positions and are easily removable for cleaning.
LotuTec® repels water and dirt like a lotus leaf, keeping lenses clear in rain and making cleaning effortless.
The Victory 8x56 T* RF and 10x56 T* RF combine Carl ZEISS’s high-performance optics, a 1200-meter rangefinder, and an innovative ballistic computer in a compact, practical package. With precise holdover guidance, rapid one-touch operation, and exceptional low-light performance, these binoculars set a new benchmark for hunters in Central Europe and beyond.
