These bins also performed well tracking and resolving the complex mix of colors in a flock of Bohemian Waxwings.įeel and Build: These binoculars were smaller and lighter than the average for the 8×42 models we tested. Watching a mixed flock of grackles, starlings, and blackbirds, we admired the sharp definition the Argos produced: the crisp white spotting of the starlings, the glowing golden eyes of the grackles, and the hint of yellow peeking out from the black shoulders of a few male Red-winged Blackbirds. Still, these binoculars performed very well in overcast and backlit conditions. When viewing objects in lower light we noted some minor color distortion, with a subtle green/red outline to darker objects. When scanning there was no distortion or fishbowl effect. Testers found that the overall image quality was excellent with a bright, true-color image that was clear virtually to the edges. Viewing Experience: The Athlon Argos G2 HD binoculars delivered a very nice viewing experience in a relatively small and inexpensive package.
