The B.1.2 is an updated version of our popular flagship B.1 Binocular. We took the best features of a classic and improved upon our original binocular design with a wider field of view, improved coatings, a larger, wider Schmidt-Pechan prism, and packaged it in a lighter, more compact build that boasts excellent light transmission. This binocular is our recommended go-to for an all-purpose optic for hunting, birding, and general-purpose wildlife viewing. Made to handle most situations, the B.1.2 features superior low-light performance, tack-sharp edge-to-edge clarity, generous depth of field, and a silky focus mechanism.

Maven: Crafted for the Outdoors
Mountain Town Roots
Maven started in a mountain town, driven by folks who'd rather be out hunting or hiking than chasing corporate profits. Their optics are made for people like you: hunters, birdwatchers, anyone who trusts their gear to make every moment in the wild count. It's honest craftsmanship from a team that shares your passion for the outdoors.
Top Quality Craftsmanship
Maven skips the retail middleman and those 15-30% markups that jack up prices in stores. By selling direct, they focus on what matters: top-grade Japanese glass and materials built to handle the toughest conditions, not cheapened to fit a retailer's price tag. You get optics designed to perform, shipped right from their workshop to your door.
Your Australian Connection
As Maven's Australian supplier, The Modern Hunter is right here, living the same outdoor life you do. Call us up, and you'll talk to a real person who knows Maven's gear and Australia's rugged terrain inside out. We're ready to help you pick the perfect optics for your next adventure, with the kind of service you'd expect from a mate.
