SIG Sauer ZULU6 HDX Marine 10x30 Image Stabilised Binoculars – SOZ6WP10OR

The SIG Sauer ZULU6 HDX Marine 10x30 Image Stabilised Binoculars, part number SOZ6WP10OR, are the compact ZULU6 HDX rebuilt for use over water: 10x magnification on 30mm objectives with OIS™ Optical Image Stabilization, a 5.2-degree field of view (approximately 91 m at 1,000 m), high-visibility orange body armour and a floating neck strap — for wildfowling on the foreshore, estuary birding and reading detail from a moving deck.

Stabilisation uses SIG's OmniScan™ OIS system with user-selectable Scan and Target modes, Target Mode increasing stabilisation by up to 50%, on a single CR2 cell for 20 hours. HDX™ GLASS with LENSARMOR™, LENSHIELD™ and SPECTRACOAT™ coatings works through Schmidt-Pechan roof prisms and is specified to cut through glare off water. Twist-up eye cups give 15mm of eye relief, close focus is 3.5 m (11.48 ft), and the IPX7 fully waterproof and fog-proof body measures approximately 150 x 50 x 120 mm (5.90 x 1.96 x 4.72 in) at 544 g (19.20 oz); it is tripod mount capable, and a foam carrying case and hi-visibility floating neck strap are supplied.

How It Compares

The ZULU6 HDX Marine 10x30 is optically the same instrument as the ZULU6 HDX 10x30 — same 5.2-degree field, same 15mm eye relief, same CR2 cell and 20-hour runtime — rebuilt for use over water. The body armour is high-visibility orange so it can be found again if it goes over the side, and the supplied neck strap floats. If you want the same treatment with more reach, the ZULU6 HDX Marine 16x42 steps up to 16x42, and the ZULU6 HDX PRO Marine 18x50 adds a Pelican case and a polarised objective cover. For land use in Flat Dark Earth, the standard 10x30 is the same money.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the binocular itself float?The supplied hi-visibility floating neck strap is what floats. The binocular is IPX7 waterproof and fog-proof rated, and the orange body armour is there so it can be seen in the water.

Is the optic different from the standard 10x30?No — the ZULU6 HDX 10x30 shares the same 5.2-degree field, 15mm eye relief, CR2 cell and 20-hour runtime. What differs is the orange armour, the floating strap and the marine specification of the HDX lens system against glare off water.

Why does stabilisation matter on a boat?Because a deck never stops moving. Scan Mode steadies the image while you sweep, and Target Mode increases stabilisation by up to 50% once you have found what you are looking at.

What battery does it take?A single CR2 cell, giving 20 hours of runtime.

Is there a larger marine model?Yes — the ZULU6 HDX Marine 16x42, and the ZULU6 HDX PRO Marine 18x50 at the top of the range.

Where can I see the rest of the range?The full SIG Sauer line-up sits in our binoculars collection.
