Vortex Diamondback HD 20-60x85MM Angled Spotting Scope

PERFORMANCE

• Powerful 20-60x zoom eyepiece is optimized for long-range applications and basic astronomy
• Large, oversized 85mm objective lens gathers the light required to ensure views remain bright and sharp when observing subjects on maximum magnification at extreme long range
• Traditional Porro prism light path produces clear and bright views without internal light interference
• High-density (HD), extra-low dispersion (ED) glass lens elements reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations for increased contrast and improved color rendition and sharpness without distortion across the entire field of view
• Anti-reflection fully multicoated optics increase light transmission for accurate color fidelity and improved contrast and clarity
• ArmorTek exterior lens coatings resist scratches and abrasions while allowing oil, dirt, and sap to be cleaned off without leaving smudges or residue
• 108-foot field of view at 1000 yards at 20x; 60-foot field of view at 60x

HANDLING

• Eyepiece set 45° to the body for comfortable viewing when standing, sitting, or lying prone
• Helical focusing mechanism focuses smoothly and quickly for tack-sharp views
• Large slip-resistant focusing collar, instead of the more common knob, is easy to manipulate in cold and wet weather or when wearing gloves, while eliminating the snag hazard that knobs can present
• Twist-up rubber eyecup for comfortable use with or without eyewear
• Standard 1/4"-20 mount with ARCA-style foot is compatible with a wide variety of plates, heads, and photo/video/field tripods
• Rotating tripod collar with positive 45° indents allows user to precisely adjust the eyepiece position relative to tripod head to place it in the most comfortable position
• Exceptional long eye relief at all magnifications improves viewing comfort with reduced eyestrain
• Comfortable 4.25mm exit pupil at 20x will cover most pupils as they open and dilate in low light to keep the whole scene in view without vignetting

CONSTRUCTION

• Protective rubber armor provides a slip-resistant grip for more secure handling during setup and breakdown
• Argon filled and O-ring sealed to be waterproof and resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme changes in temperature and environmental conditions
• Tethered eyepiece and objective caps prevent loss during use
• Retractable sunshade prevents lens flare that can spook game, reduces glare to maintain contrast and clarity in the view, and keeps rain or snow off of the lens for clearer views in inclement weather
• Neoprene carrying case protects the spotting scope during transport and storage
