SIG Sauer ZULU6 HDX PRO Marine 18x50 Image Stabilised Binoculars – SOZ6WP1850M

The SIG Sauer ZULU6 HDX PRO Marine 18x50 Image Stabilised Binoculars, part number SOZ6WP1850M, are the flagship of the whole SIG SAUER binocular range: 18x magnification on 50mm objectives with OmniScan™ OIS stabilisation, a 3.7-degree actual field of view (approximately 65 m at 1,000 m) and a 66.6-degree apparent field, built for water in high-visibility orange armour with a polarised objective flip-back cover that cuts glare off the sea.

OmniScan™ OIS works from a digital accelerometer, running on two AA alkaline cells for 40 hours and compatible with rechargeable li-ion. The lens system is HDXPRO™ GLASS with LENSARMOR™, LENSHIELD™ and SPECTRACOAT™ coatings through Schmidt-Pechan roof prisms. Twist-up eye cups give 15.3mm of eye relief, close focus is 5.5 m (18.04 ft), and the IPX7 waterproof and fog-proof body measures approximately 203 x 67 x 122 mm (8.00 x 2.63 x 4.79 in) at 963 g (33.97 oz). It ships in a custom Pelican waterproof case with a hi-visibility floating neck strap.

How It Compares

The ZULU6 HDX PRO Marine 18x50 is the flagship of the whole SIG SAUER binocular range and the most heavily equipped. Optically it matches the ZULU6 HDX PRO 18x50 — same 3.7-degree field, 66.6-degree apparent field, 15.3mm eye relief and OmniScan OIS — but it ships in a custom Pelican waterproof case with a hi-visibility floating neck strap, wears orange body armour, and adds a polarised objective flip-back cover that cuts glare off water. The smaller marine models, the Marine 16x42 and Marine 10x30, are lighter and less expensive but do not carry the Pelican case or the polarised cover.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the polarised objective cover do?It flips back over the objective lenses and cuts glare coming off the water, which is the single biggest obstacle to reading detail at sea on a bright day.

Is the optic the same as the land 18x50?Yes — the ZULU6 HDX PRO 18x50 shares the same 3.7-degree field, 66.6-degree apparent field, 15.3mm eye relief, OmniScan OIS and 40-hour runtime. The marine model adds the orange armour, the floating strap, the polarised cover and the Pelican case.

Can I use rechargeable batteries?Yes — it takes two AA alkaline cells and is rechargeable li-ion compatible, with 40 hours of runtime.

Is it waterproof enough for a wet deck?It is IPX7 waterproof and fog-proof rated, and it stows in a custom Pelican waterproof case.

Is there a smaller marine model?Yes — the ZULU6 HDX Marine 16x42 and the compact ZULU6 HDX Marine 10x30.
