Description
The Vortex Razor 10×42 HD Binocular is a versatile optic that is ideal for multiple applications from close to long-distance observation.
The Vortex Razor 10×42 HD Binocular is a versatile optic that is ideal for multiple applications from close to long-distance observation, and is smaller, lighter, brighter, and stronger than ever before.
Its lightweight construction and high optical performance make it an extremely desirable viewing instrument.
The Binocular renders views in high contrast with accurate color through the use of high-density (HD) extra-low dispersion (ED) glass, an apochromatic lens configuration, XR Plus lens coatings, and dielectric and phase-correcting prism coatings, which raise the level of optical excellence for this roof prism binocular.
The benefits include excellence in color sharpness, coating durability, overall performance, increased resolution, color fidelity, clarity, brightness, and greater light transmission.
Additional lens protection from scratches, oil, and dust is provided by the ArmorTek exterior lens coating.
The Razor HD is argon filled and sealed with O-rings to ensure reliable and durable protection against dust, debris, fog, and water. It is rubber armored for non-slip and durable protection, and is equipped with a large focusing knob that is easy to use even while wearing gloves. Naturally contoured to perfectly fit your hands, promoting comfort and eliminating user fatigue, with the Razor HD has once again created a winning combination of features.
With a well-earned reputation for pushing the limits of optical performance, the Razor HD stepped up and out on other binoculars in their class.
Small, light, bright, strong, and packed with the best quality, hand-selected prisms and premium HD extra-low dispersion glass available today.
Nothing else comes close.
