Vortex Crossfire HD 10x42 Overview

From Manufacturer

Powerful enough to observe distant objects and featuring a generous objective lens for a bright image, the 10x42 Crossfire HD Binoculars from Vortex are a solid choice for an all-around optic. Their 6' close-focus distance is ideal for watching nearby birds, animals or insects. They come with a Vortex GlassPak harness for comfortable use during hours of observation.

The Crossfire HD delivers views with minimal chromatic aberration, exceptional color fidelity, edge-to-edge sharpness, and optimal light transmission through the use of high-definition glass, an index-matched lens configuration, an XR Plus anti-reflective coating, and phase-correcting roof prisms. The housing is nitrogen-filled for fog and waterproof performance, and rubber armored for a non-slip grip. The short bridge provides plenty of space for your hands, and the large focusing knob is easy to use, even while wearing gloves. Twist-down eyecups accommodate users who wear glasses. For hands-free use and the steadiest view, the Crossfire HD can be mounted on a tripod using the separately sold tripod adapter.

Vortex Crossfire HD 10x42 Reviews

A Great Investment !

I enjoy spending time in the woods and outdoors. The Vortex binoculars are great so far; I used them to check for the ramps currently emerging, watching a hen turkey on and about her nest, and just gazing fields for game.. They`re light, stay focused to my eyes, and HD, so it`s a fun experience using them. Hope they bring good luck in the hunting season.

Great binoculars for the price!
