The details
Vortex Viper HD binoculars 50mm
It takes a lot to improve the very popular and award-winning Vortex Viper HD binoculars but we have made small but effective improvements where it matters.
HD (High Density) extra-low dispersion glass is still used for outstanding edge-to-edge clarity coupled with low-light-conquering XR™ anti-reflective coatings and now a wider field of view making this new range of binoculars even better than before.
From a size and weight perspective, the Viper HD binoculars are one of the lightest, most compact, full-size premium quality binoculars on the market.
They come complete with a Vortex Glasspak Binocular Harness (GlassPak™) so can be comfortably carried for long periods of time in their own protective case from which you should have no trouble reaching them at a moment's notice.
Optical Features
HD Lens Elements: HD (High Density) extra-low dispersion glass delivers impressive resolution and colour fidelity, resulting in High Definition images.
XR Lens Coatings: Vortex proprietary XR anti-reflective coatings, fully multi-coated on all air-to-glass lens surfaces, increase light transmission for maximum brightness.
Phase Correction: Used on roof prism models, coating enhances resolution and contrast.
Construction Features
Roof Prisms: Valued for greater durability and a more compact size.
Waterproof: Optics are sealed with O-rings to prevent moisture, dust, and debris from getting inside the binocular.
Fogproof: Argon gas purging guarantees superior fogproof and waterproof performance.
Rubber Armour: Provides a secure, non-slip grip, and durable external protection.
ArmorTek: Exterior lenses are protected by ArmorTek — an ultrahard, scratch-resistant compound that repels oil, dirt and the corrosive salts of fingerprints.
Convenience Features
Twist Eyecups: Twist up and down to precise, intermediate settings to maximize custom fit for comfortable viewing with or without spectacles.
Locking Diopter: Adjusts for differences in a user's eyes. Located on the right eyepiece.
Tripod Adaptable: Compatible with a tripod adapter, allowing use on a tripod or car window mount.

Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
