The powerful 12x magnification is ideal for long-distance observation and will suit hunters and general wildlife enthusiasts operating in wide open areas, like the mountains, a lakeside or at the coast. Whilst they will excel during the day, the large 50mm objective lenses and good quality optics with high transmission levels ensure that despite the high power, the Athlon Argos G2 12x50 will hold their own in low light and will even make a good choice for binocular astronomy. Tripod adaptable, these are easily mounted onto a tripod for a completely shake-free image, however, with steady hands, you should not have a problem achieving a good view.
Consisting of six different roof prism models, spread between three different size categories, the Athlon Argos series can be summarized as a diverse, affordable mid-level range of binoculars with an excellent performance to cost ratio.
Particularly notable at this price point is the high level of optical coatings that are used and which directly contributes to their class leading views.
All Argos binoculars are based around an open-bridge body shape which has become popular on modern roof prism binoculars for a number of reasons. For starters, the gap between barrels provides a more secure grip when glassing but also when carrying the instrument in one hand. As well as secure it makes for a well balanced, comfortable instrument to use. The lightweight polymer composite housing is an economical option commonly found at this price point because it is relatively robust, lightweight and completely resistant to corrosion. It is completely sealed and filled with Argon gas ensuring that the Argos is not only fog and waterproof, but also impervious to dust and other small particles. All models also have a large, easy to reach central focus wheel, comfortable twist-up eyecups with intermediate click stops and a right eye diopter adjustment to calibrate the binocular to match your particular eyesight.
The of quality of optics incorporated into the Argos is very impressive at this price range: The whole system is fully multi-coated with anti-reflective coatings that reduce undesired reflections as well as increase light transmission resulting in brighter, more defined images.
Roof prisms are fashioned from quality BaK-4 glass and are phase corrected. But what is really extraordinary is that these prisms have Dielectric mirror coatings applied to them, wheres most of their direct competitors will use silver. The difference in the amount of light that gets reflected is not trivial and certainly contributes to a brighter, better quality view.
On top of this, the Argos also uses Athlon’s Xtra protective outer lens coatings as found on the top end models.
Athlon Argos binoculars come bundled with a good assortment of accessories. This includes a well padded, comfortable neck strap. A protective carry case, with its own adjustable strap and a Velcro closure. Tethered soft rubber/plastic objective lens covers, a well-fitting rain guard and a good quality lens cleaning cloth.
A lifetime warranty comes as standard with this and indeed all other high-grade Athlon binoculars and shows the high degree of confidence the company has in their products.
