The top of the range and most powerful monoculars from Vortex Optics is the Recon with their powerful magnifications, onboard rangefinders, large 50mm lenses incorporating Vortex’s premium XD glass, and high definition optical system have been designed to offer unparalleled performance to the long range hunter or security surveillance professional.
The heads-up ranging reticle in the display uses MRAD-based subtensions with the inclusion of a silhouette system that helps you to establish the range of an object more quickly as no calculations are necessary. This is achieved by you comparing the size of the viewed subject to the human silhouettes on the reticle in the view that you know the dimensions of. Covered in a tough rubber armor for improved grip and shock protection, the chassis also has O-ring seals making the Recon monoculars fully waterproof as well as eliminating the chance that dust and debris being able to enter the system to spoil the view. The Argon gas filled interior also prevents the internal glass surfaces from fogging during periods of rapid temperature fluctuations. This Vortex Recon monocular has rubber eyecup that is not only very comfortable even when pressed firmly against your face, but the flared side design blocks peripheral light from distracting you as well as preventing glare and reflections on the ocular lens. Note that the flared cup can rotate to accommodate using the left or right eyes. You can also fold down the cup to allow eyeglass wearers the extra space needed to use Vortex Recon Tactical Scopes whilst wearing glasses.
Vortex Recon monoculars have two focus rings, the large ring focuses on the image, whilst the small diopter ring allows you to correctly focus the reticle to your particular eyesight. The Recon RT incorporates Vortex’s ultimate level of optical glass and coatings which includes ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements in the large 50mm lens that reduces colour fringing for a higher definition image. Fully Multi-Coated with Vortex’s proprietary XR™ anti-reflective coatings on all lens surfaces, results in higher light transmission levels for brighter, higher quality views in all light conditions. Exterior surfaces on the lenses are also protected using Vortex’s ArmorTek ® coating. This very hard and durable material is not only scratch resistant but also helps prevent oil and dirt from remaining on the glass surface and thus less frequent and less vigorous cleaning is required. The Schmidt/Pechan Roof prisms have phase correction coatings added to them that eliminate any shifting of the individual wavelengths of light can cause a loss in image resolution and contrast on devices that are untreated.
The Vortex Recon monoculars have a utility carry clip fixed onto the back of the body making it very easy for you to fix the instrument to a belt, webbing or backpack for quick and secure field access. Also included is an ambidextrous hand strap. Similar to the design commonly found on camcorders, it is adjustable to accommodate different hand sizes and provides improved stability when glasses as well as helping to ensure that you never drop the monocular accidentally. The monocular also comes with instructions, lens covers, and a cleaning cloth.
The Recon series of monoculars is protected by the comprehensive Vortex VIP warranty that comes as standard and which means in the event your monocular gets damaged or becomes defective, Vortex Optics will repair or replace it at no charge to you.
