Key FeaturesHigh-Density Extra-Low-Dispersion GlassPhase-Corrected and Dielectric CoatedXR Fully Multi-Coated OpticsScratch-Resistant ArmourTek Lens CoatingThis updated 2018 version of the Vortex Viper HD12x50 Binoculars get upgraded with a significantly wider field ofview, angle of view, and inter-pupillary distance adjustment range from theprevious iteration to make views more spacious and viewing through them easierand more comfortable for a wide variety of users.Optically, these binoculars benefit from proprietary XRanti-reflection fully multi-coated optics that maximise light transmissionthrough the light path and improve contrast and colour rendition across theentire visual spectrum. The compact roof prisms are dielectric coated.Phase-corrected coatings limit internal interference, light loss, anddiffraction while maximizing light transmission through the prism system. Thesefeatures work together to produce bright, sharp, and clear high-contrast viewswith accurate colour fidelity and crisp resolution. The powerful magnificationis designed for observing large game at extreme distances such as in thewide-open spaces of the American West. Large 50mm objective lenses draw ingenerous amounts of light to offset the dimming that can happen with high-poweroptics and maintain bright and crisp images even when conditions are less thanideal.Complementing the optical performance are constructiondetails that allow the Viper HD to withstand the rigors of the trail. Theoptical tubes are argon filled and O-ring sealed to be waterproof and resistantto internal fogging if the weather turns or they take an accidental spill in astream or puddle. Protecting the optical components is a polycarbonate chassisthat is lightweight and durable as well as resistant to the expansion andcontraction that metal suffers from and which can lead to fuzzy views overtime. Vortex includes a GlassPak binocular harness case that protects the opticwhen not in use while keeping it close to your body, preventing swinging andswaying as you move or climb over rough and rocky terrain. Objective lens capsand a one-piece ocular rain-guard protect the exterior lens surfaces. To keepthe caps and rain-guard safe during use, they are tethered to the body andstrap, respectively.Optical PerformancePowerful 12x magnification brings subjects in for close observations at extreme distancesLarge 50mm objective lenses help maintain image brightness at long range despite the high power and provide generous light-gathering capability for improved vision in challenging conditionsCompact roof prism light path enhances performance while helping to keep the weight and bulk downPhase-correcting prism coatings eliminate internal interference to improve colour and contrastDielectric prism coatings boost internal prism reflectivity to greater than 99% to maximise light transmission through the prism with minimal loss and diffractionHigh-density (HD), extra-low-dispersion (ED) glass lens elements reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations for increased contrast and improved colour rendition and sharpness without distortion across the entire field of viewProprietary XR anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics increase light transmission for accurate colour fidelity and improved contrast and clarityArmourTek exterior lens coatings resist scratches and abrasions while allowing oil, dirt, and sap to be cleaned off without leaving smudges or residueWide 66 apparent angle of view helps to reduce the appearance of the distracting hand shake that is common when holding high-power optics such as this288-foot field of view at 1000 yardsUse and HandlingClosed bridge configuration provides a solid platform for the internal focusing mechanismLarge slip-resistant centre focus knob is easy to manipulate in cold and wet weather or while wearing glovesLocking right eye dioptric correction lets you compensate for individual eye prescription for tack-sharp views56-75 mm inter-pupillary distance range allows easy viewing by a wide variety of usersTwist-up click-stop rubber eye-cups for comfortable use with or without eye-wearTripod mountable with an optional adapter for hands-free use to reduce vibration and arm fatigue16mm eye relief reduces eye strain to make for more comfortable viewing, especially over extended periods4.1mm exit pupil will completely cover most pupils as they open and dilate in low light to ensure the whole scene remains in view without vignettingConstruction DetailsLightweight and impact-resistant polycarbonate chassisChassis material is temperature resistant, limiting the expansion and contraction that can occur with metal materials and which can cause the optical components to move out of alignment over timeRubber armouring provides protection from bumps and impacts while offering a positive slip-resistant grip in cold and wet weatherArgon-filled and O-ring sealed to be waterproof and resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme changes in temperature or environmental conditionsTethered objective lens caps and one-piece ocular rain-guard protect the lens surface without the fear of losing them when not in useGlassPak binocular harness holds the optic close to your body to keep them safe and secure without swinging or hanging when moving or climbing over rough terrainWhats Included?Vortex 12×50 Viper HD Binoculars (2018 Edition)Vortex GlassPak Binocular Harness (Tan)Neck StrapRain-guard Eyepiece Cover2 x Tethered Objective Lens CoverLimited Lifetime Warranty
