Value Priced Without Being Cheap
The Crossfire HD range is where Vortex put proper glass into a binocular most people can actually justify. Fully multi coated HD optics, nitrogen purged and sealed against moisture, and rubber armoured against the inevitable knock. It is rugged performance at a price that does not need a special occasion to justify.
Why 10×42
More reach than the 8×42, at the cost of a narrower field of view and more visible shake. The right choice if you are identifying things at distance rather than scanning.
The Harness Is Included
The GlassPak harness comes with them rather than being sold separately, and it changes how you use a binocular. Round your neck they swing, bang against your chest and end up in a pocket. In a harness they sit still, stay protected, and come to your eyes in one movement. Most people who try one stops using a neck strap.
Nitrogen Purging, In Plain English
The air inside has been replaced with dry nitrogen and the housing sealed. That means no internal moisture, so they cannot fog up on the inside when you go from a cold morning into a warm car. External condensation still happens, but that wipes off. It is the difference between a binocular that works in British weather and one that does not. More in our optics range.
