Athlon Argos 20-60x85 HD Straight Product description

  1. HD Glass System: The Athlon Argos 20-60x85 HD Straight incorporates an High Definition (HD) glass system that significantly reduces chromatic aberration, delivering images with outstanding clarity, sharpness, and true-to-life color reproduction. This ensures precise observation, whether for birding, hunting, or target shooting.

  2. Advanced Fully Multi-Coated Lenses: Every lens surface is meticulously treated with advanced fully multi-coatings. This maximizes light transmission across the entire visible light spectrum, enhancing brightness and contrast to provide clear, detailed views even in challenging low-light conditions at dawn or dusk.

  3. XPL Protective Coating: Featuring Athlon's proprietary XPL Coating (Extra Protective Layer), the exterior lenses are fortified against the elements. This robust coating actively repels dirt, oil, and prevents scratches, maintaining optimum optical performance and ensuring the longevity of your spotting scope's pristine view.

  4. Argon Purged and Waterproof: Built for rugged outdoor use, this spotting scope is argon purged and O-ring sealed, making it fully waterproof and fogproof. This construction prevents moisture from entering the optics and eliminates internal fogging caused by rapid temperature changes, guaranteeing reliable performance in any weather.

ABOUT THE ATHLON ARGOS 20-60X85 HD STRAIGHT

The Athlon Argos 20-60x85 HD Straight spotting scope delivers a compelling blend of performance and value, setting it apart in its class. Unlike angled models, its straight viewing design is ideal for quick target acquisition and observation from a consistent height, though multiple users may need to adjust tripod height. Central to its optical prowess is the HD Glass System, which works to minimize chromatic aberration, ensuring images are crisp, vibrant, and true to life. Coupled with Advanced Fully Multi-Coated Lenses, this spotting scope maximizes light transmission, providing bright and clear views, even when conditions are less than ideal. Its construction features a durable chassis encased in protective rubber armoring, making it highly robust. The innovative XPL Protective Coating on exterior lenses defends against environmental wear, extending the life of the optics. This model is engineered for hunters, birdwatchers, and target shooters who demand reliable magnification without breaking the bank, offering a 20-60x zoom range and a large 85mm objective for excellent light gathering.
