Here is What They Said
"What is truly remarkable is that Athlon is able to bring such a well-appointed spotting scope to the market for the cost of a mid-level binocular. For that outrageous value, the Argos HD wins this year’s Great Buy award."
Argos HD
We designed the Argos family of spotting scopes with good optical quality and ease of use in mind. The Argos spotting scope features our wind band fully multi-coated lenses and porro prisms with phased coating. They bring great clarity and brightness within the reach of all enthusiasts. The light-weight composite chassis protected by rubber armor is fog proof, waterproof, and filled with nitrogen gas to prevent internal fogging and promote better thermal stability. The product comes with a specially designed soft case allowing you to mount the spotting scope on a tripod and use it with the soft case on it all the time.

I bought this new scope based on the scarce reviews and hoping I would not have to return it for a scope costing 2 to 3 times as much. HD glass here, not ED glass. I am happy with the purchase. Nice features and a sharp image. The big focus ring like the ones on Swarovski scopes and the twist up eyepiece are nice. So is having a big 2 1/4 inch eyepiece. Polycarbonate housing is light weight, but seems sturdy enough for moderate use. Many of my photo lenses have poly bodies, too, with no issues. Very clear image in bright light. Low light is where you pay big money to excel. I wish scope manufacturers rated their scopes by how much light they let thru like photo lens makers do. Standardized f-Stop ratings would make buying decisions a lot easier. And make junk scopes harder to sell.Most telephoto lenses let in less light as you zoom, unless you spend LOTS of money. This scope is no exception. In full daylight it matters little. 2 1/2 inch letters on parking signs can be easily read 1/2 mile away if they are in direct sunlight. A license plate in the shade at the same distance is almost possible, but not quite. Jupiters' moons are clearly visible, while with my astigmatism, Jupiter's stripes are difficult to see and barely visible. A neutral density filter may help. ED glass and more expensive coatings might help too,, but those are expensive upgrades. At dusk, colors lose their intensity above 40x zoom. That being said, at dusk trophy bull elk can be told apart from average bulls a mile away in a field visible from my home, even with the bull standing a few feet into the trees. Depth of field is very narrow when zoomed at 60x. A very light touch is required on the focusing ring at 60x. If you are not patient while focusing, I can see why so many reviews claim mid priced scopes are blurry at max magnification. Part of that is a manufacturing price compromise, part may be a little operator error. A Neoprene "view thru" case is not listed but one is included. All in all, a decent "mid priced" scope for those wanting to avoid cheap junk but unable to spend big bucks on premium glass. More than adequate for an average shooter's needs like mine. Specialty needs will require spending specialty prices. I would recommend this to a friend to use as the point of diminishing returns to decide whether to spending a lot more money is worth the expense.

I recently received my Argos HD 20-60x85, and man, it's a game-changer! This thing blew me away, and I couldn't be happier with it.First off, it's built tough. Feels solid and well-made, yet it's surprisingly light and easy to carry around. Plus, the included case and tripod is super handy.In terms of value for money, this spotting scope is a winner. The performance and build quality you get for the price are unbeatable. Athlon Optics has really hit the mark with the Argos HD.As far as optics go, this thing blows my telescope out of the water. The 20-60x85 setup lets you get up close and personal with whatever you're looking at. I pointed it at a tower that’s just under 1,700 yards and the details were crisp and clear. The colors pop, and it stays bright even when it's not-so-sunny outside. These pictures were taken just before sunset.Note: The eye relief is pretty tight and I couldn't get my lens close enough to the eyepiece, so the picture of the tower is not a true representation of the real life picture, just wanted to show the clarity and magnification.Focusing is a piece of cake, and that adjustable eyepiece makes sure you get the perfect view. The focus wheel is smooth and precise, so you can zoom in on your target without any fuss.Another standout feature is the ruggedness of this scope. It's waterproof, fogproof, and seems like it’s built to withstand harsh weather conditions in the field.In a nutshell, the Argos HD 20-60x85 is a winner for me. It's got power, clarity, and toughness at a more than reasonable price. I plan to use it for long-range shooting and based on what I’ve seen so far, this is a perfect fit for me. I couldn't be happier with my purchase, and I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a high-quality spotting scope.

This works great has a very clear view but VERY HEAVY and can’t get any tripod to hold it steady. I’ve even got a bog deathgrip tripod and it can’t even hold it in place.
