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.
