With many people going to binos over spotters i am just curious why i don't see the Steiner 20X80 being used more?
Why don't we see more of the Steiner 20X binos being used?

Probably because they are giant. The Vortex Kaibabs are slightly lighter but a smaller package and cheaper. Most people either pick something smaller with less magnification, or just buy a spotter with variable magnification.
As mention in the other thread, most people are choosing binos over spotters because its a smaller, lighter package and they can get good results with 10-15x magnification.

I had some M1050R binos a while back, and the FOV kind of sucked. Tripod mounting solutions were non existent, impossible to use with glasses, etc. Their design is basically a bit outdated ergonomically. I ended up using my Athlon Cronus binos more than my Steiners and ended up selling the M1050R.
