The Athlon Cronus G2 UHD 20-60×86 Spotting Scope (brand part no. 311004) is an angled 45-degree spotter with a single focus wheel. It combines an apochromatic lens system with UHD glass and an ESP dielectric coating for color definition and light transmission. Athlon geared the focus wheel finely so you can lock in the sharpest image at high power. It suits glassing for game, range spotting and long observation sessions from a tripod.

Key Specifications

• Magnification is 20-60x, enough range to scan wide and then pick out detail.
• The objective lens is 86mm, which gathers a lot of light for glassing in low light.
• The eyepiece is a 45-degree angled design, comfortable for sitting at a tripod.
• Field of view is 111 to 60 feet at 1,000 yards, wide at low power and narrower at high power.
• Eye relief is .78 to .7 inch, so eyeglass wearers should expect a close eye position.
• The apochromatic lens system converges color into one focus point for more contrast and sharpness.
• UHD glass keeps chromatic fringe to a minimum for a clean image.
• The ESP dielectric coating reflects over 99 percent of light for a bright, color-accurate view.
