First, I have a GoSky 20-60 at 60mm it feels cheap and lightweight. It also is very dark. It is crisp and not soft. The Vortex is crisp thru the entire magnifying band. The light from the 85mm is the huge difference. I expected it to soften up in the higher magnification but that it not noticeable. What is noticeable is the chromatic aberration. It's HUGE in this glass. I am a professional photographer and I did not buy this for photography. I bought it for hunting and sighting in my scope. The color difference does not bother me. I will post a video where you can see this. I am happy with the build and quality. For under $500 it's exceptional. My wife and I use vortex products while eagle watching and we're adding this to our tools. The focus ring and the magnification dial are not hard to turn. I have no need for the padded sleeve it came with. I use a tripod always. You'll need a strong tripod as the weight will sag your lightweight tripod. After you get it, you'll want to carry it with you always. I have a work vehicle where I can do that. It's an excellent man toy and would make an excellent gift. Look for the purple spot in the middle of the glass on the video. Review: Nice scope - It's a nice scope and Vortex is the best optics company out there, but you can save a bit of money and drop down to the Crossfire line as the quality, brightness and clarity were just not that much better to justify the price jump to my eyes. ## Features - The redesigned Diamondback HD spotting scope has all the optical horsepower the western hunter needs, and excels in low light. It features a streamlined exterior for a sleeker profile and a built-in helical focus wheel for fast and fine adjustments. - HD optical system delivers exceptional resolution, cuts chromatic aberration and provides outstanding color fidelity, edge-to-edge sharpness and light transmission.

I am your average Joe who always had middle of the road binoculars (like Nikon Monarch 7, three of them in different configurations). I am not expert, bur guess what : I have eyes !!!! i ALSO HAVE A GOOD VISION. And I know what to look for. I got me this Vortex Diamonback HD 20-60X85 and I am pleasantly surprised what a great quality optics this is. First of all it's super clear. It is shoulder to shoulder with my Nikon Monarch 7 witch has ED glass. View is very clear with plenty of light even on the cloudy day. I have NO distortion whatsoever even at the high end Zoom. The build quality of this thing is phenomenal. It's built like a tank. Please don't listen to these optics snobs here that are picky about this scope. They clearly have no clue what they are talking about. How come ? Very simple : You DO NOT compare Honda with Mercedes S Class, do you ? And this is what every one of them does. This scope is a Honda. It will get you there, it will last long time, and it will give you good service. Mercedes will do that too, and more, but at what price ? If you are on the fence, go for it and don't look back. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vortex Optics Diamondback HD Spotting Scopes - Vortex Optics High Country II Tripod Kit - Vortex Optics Car Window Mount | Use with Binoculars & Spotting Scopes --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/219573377-optics-diamondback-hd-spotting-scopes](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/219573377-optics-diamondback-hd-spotting-scopes) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
