The 12x magnification is great for achieving greater detail or for viewing objects at further distances, whilst the large 50mm lenses ensure that even with this high power you get a reasonably bright image in low light.
So if you are prepared to wield a slightly larger, heavier binocular, then these make a great choice for general wildlife observation, but in particular hunters and long-range bird-watchers. For those lucky enough to have an ocean view or of the mountains and wish to set up their binocular on their balcony with a tripod these also make an excellent choice as they are tripod adaptable. Hunters or birders who operate from a hide will also benefit from this.
The large lenses and high level of light transmittance also make these 12x50 binoculars a good choice for astronomy.
An entry-level series, the Neos is the least expensive offering within the Athlon Optics stable. It encompasses a wide variety of models and thus is sure to accommodate users shopping on a tight budget.
There are four roof prism models, with either the standard sized 8x42 or 10x42 models or the more compact and travel-friendly 8x32 and 10x32 options to choose from.
Available in either 10x or 12x magnifications, the two larger 50mm Neos binoculars use porro prisms and thus have the more iconic binocular shape with the objective lenses sitting further apart than the eye-pieces. Whilst this design is not as compact as the roof prism one, it is very comfortable to hold and produces a better stereoscopic image.
All Neos binoculars have a composite shell with a durable rubber armour coating on the exterior which as well as protection, also adds grip and is a more camouflaged, less reflective surface.
The housing is o-ring sealed and is internally filled with Nitrogen gas to ensure that the device is both 100% water and fog proof. These seals also prevent dust and other particles from entry and the dry, oxygen-free interior prevents any fungal or mold growth that you sometimes find on unprotected binoculars.
Focusing is achieved via a large centrally positioned wheel and all models come with a diopter adjuster and multi-positional twist-up eyecups to ensure that they can be customised to meet your particular requirements.
These binoculars are also easily fixed to a tripod using a common adapter which attaches to the screw thread on the front hinge. This ensures a completely steady image and is especially welcomed on the heavier, more powerful models or for those with very shaky hands.
All models within the Neos series use prisms made from BaK-4 glass and whilst the two 50mm porro prism options are fully multi-coated, the four roof prism versions are only multi-coated.
Added to this, if you also consider that porro prisms do not require special coatings to achieve total light transmission and that the roof prism models use silver and not the dielectric coatings as on Athlon’s more expensive ranges then there is no doubt that the 10x50 and 12x50 Neos will not only capture more light but transmit a higher percentage of it to your eyes than the roof prism versions.
Athlon Optics supply these Neos binoculars with a soft carry case, neck strap, both objective and ocular lens covers and a cleaning cloth.
As with all their binoculars, these Neos binoculars are covered by the Athlon Optics lifetime warranty. So should your binoculars get damaged through normal use, they will either repair or replace your instrument. Full details are contained within the box.
