Vortex Crossfire HD 10x42 – this binocular for sharp observation

The Vortex Crossfire HD 10x42 is a versatile binocular that helps you bring distant details into sharp focus. Whether you are birdwatching, exploring landscapes, or observing targets during outdoor activities – this binocular combines powerful 10x magnification with the convenience of a compact design.

Our opinion on this binocular

The Shogun team is impressed by the balance between performance and portability. Weighing only 652 grams, this binocular feels surprisingly light during extended use. The green housing with robust rubber coating sits comfortably in the hand and offers a good grip, even when your hands are damp.

Technology and optical performance

At the heart of this binocular are 42 mm objective lenses that provide a bright and clear image. The 10x magnification brings distant objects closer without excessive image shake. With an exit pupil of 4.2 mm, this optic delivers sufficient light for clear observations even at dusk.

The HD optical system with special lens coatings minimises chromatic aberrations and increases contrast. This is especially noticeable when observing fine details such as plumage or leaf structures. The field of view of 108 metres at 1000 metres is wide enough to easily track moving objects.

Mounting and compatibility

As a binocular, this model does not require a mounting rail – you simply use it handheld. The central focusing system allows you to quickly focus on objects from 2 metres to infinity. The rotating eyecups make the binocular suitable for both spectacle wearers and users without glasses.

Vortex supplies this binocular complete with lens caps, a comfortable carrying strap, a protective storage bag, and a rain cover. Everything you need for worry-free use in the field.

Who is this binocular intended for?

This versatile binocular is ideal for nature enthusiasts who value image quality without having to carry a heavy instrument. The robust construction makes it suitable for use with firearms as an observation instrument at the shooting range. Birdwatchers and hikers also appreciate the combination of magnification, brightness, and the wide field of view for spotting wildlife.
