The 15x45 Conquest Binocular is the latest series from Zeiss between the entry-level Diafun and the premium Classic & Victory series of binoculars. Conquests have all of the typical Zeiss accoutrements, including the T* multicoatings and the phase corrected roof prisms. They're lightweight, marvelously handling daylight binoculars with a broader focusing range and improved brightness than the Diafun series.
The 15x45 model of the Conquest range is a particular star, surprisingly easy to handhold for such profound magnification and giving resolution which nearly matches the big guns of their fullsized European brethren at a much lower price. Nonetheless, as a rule it is true that high-powered binoculars are difficult to hold steady by hand; a monopod(and a tripod adapter if not included with the binocular) with an incorporated fluid pan/tilt head or with such a head attached between the monopod and the binocular is highly recommended.

Comments about Zeiss 15x45 B T* Conquest Binocular:
Big game spotting out west requires small binoculars and big spotting scopes. My Zeiss 15x45 B T* binocular sets a medium between the two. The side effects with using poor optics is sore eyes. You will not get sore eyes with these or any other Zeiss products unless you like to point towards the sun too much. Go figure.
