The Athlon Cronus ATS Pro 50L-640 thermal scope (Athlon part no. 210137) adds a built-in laser rangefinder and ballistic calculator to the Cronus ATS platform. A 640×480 sensor behind a 50 mm F1.0 lens delivers a detailed image with an 8.8 by 6.6 degree field of view, and a 1440×1080 OLED display shows it with seven selectable color palettes. Wi-Fi and the Athlon thermal app let you record video and capture stills, and recoil-activated Auto-Shot saves the moments around each shot. It is a capable night-hunting and predator-control optic from Athlon.

Key Specifications

• The sensor resolution is 640×480 at 12 microns, a fine pixel pitch that produces a sharper thermal image.
• The lens system is 50 mm F1.0, a fast lens that gathers the thermal signature efficiently.
• Magnification runs 2.95 to 23.6x, so you can scan wide and then zoom in to identify a target.
• The field of view is 8.8 by 6.6 degrees, wide enough to scan terrain without losing the picture.
• The display is 1440×1080 OLED, which gives a high-contrast, high-resolution view of the thermal image.
• Sensitivity is rated at 25 mK NETD or better, which helps the sensor separate small temperature differences.
• A built-in laser rangefinder measures the distance to your subject without a separate device.
• A ballistic calculator in the Athlon app handles common calibers and cartridges as well as custom loads.
• The scope weighs 35.3 ounces and is 14.7 inches long, with a 30 mm tube diameter.
