## Overview

The Vortex Optics Recce Pro HD 8x32 Monocular combines high-definition optics with tactical functionality, featuring an 8x magnification, MRAD reticle for precise ranging, and durable Armortek-coated lenses. Its rugged rubber armor, waterproof and fogproof design, and ergonomic one-handed focus make it ideal for professionals demanding reliable, quick-access observation in any environment.

## Description

The RECCE Pro HD delivers high-end optical performance, extreme durability, and practical functionality, all in a lightweight, compact, easy-to-carry package. Once focused, single hand operation allows for discrete observation and keeps your off-hand free for other tasks. The integrated carry clip attaches to webbing or other flat-edged surfaces for quick access, and the included MOLLE pouch attaches to standard kit. Tethered flip caps won’t get lost and protect exterior optical surfaces. HD optical system, fully multi-coated with XR anti-reflective coatings, delivers tack-sharp views. The winged fold-down eyecup protects against blowing grit and blocks view-degrading side light.

Review: Just bought the recce pro hd and first impressions were great. Totally worth it in my opinion. That being said if you’re reading this you’re probably like me and read the other reviews as well. One of the reviews I read kinda tried to throw this optic under the bus lol. They sounded very opinionated so I had to see for myself about the performance and ergonomics of this monocular. So far so good lol the pouch fits the monocular with ease(I think they were trying to do something a** backwards lol), and you could easily manipulate it with one hand lol the clip is in a fine position unless you’re a (in my nice voice) prissy pants lol it’ll be located under your thumb, so if your having a issue don’t grab it like you’re trying to break it. Alternatively you could wear gloves if your kong fu grip is to serious lol as for the ring tightness, they are a bit stiff but if you’ve owned vortex optics before you should already have a idea of how these feel. The glass is extremely clear and exceeded my expectations. I love the radical and the placement of it. The silhouettes make range guestimation easier. The crosshairs are nice for making corrections on paper. I’m also a fan of the crosshairs being offset. The upper right portion of the monocular gives you a clear and unobstructed view of your target. They also have the look and feel of something that can take a beating. I would recommend this for duty use. All and all I think that these were the best choice for me. Will update if anything changes but I do like the quality to say the least and you can’t beat the Vortex VIP warranty.
Review: 今まで、コンパクト双眼鏡を使ってました。 使用用途は、バス釣りやシーバス、キャンプやオリエンテーリング(本格的な物ではなく、サバイバル能力の自己啓発です※コンパスと地図を使い現在地把握や目的地へ到着できるかの訓練)です。 双眼鏡が必要だったのは、メガネはしたことがありませんが、目が悪くなってきたこともあり、遠くがよく見えなくなったからです。 使用している目的は、遠くの物を正確に認識(スポットの状態把握や何の建造物かの把握等)する必要があるため双眼鏡を使ってました。 不満だったのは、双眼鏡だと仰々しい感じをいつもしていたのと、ある程度、使用スペックを満たすには双眼鏡だと高額になることです。 こちらも、フィールド単眼鏡としては高額ですが、同レベルの双眼鏡の半額で済みます。 買って使ってみると(まだ近所で試しレベルですが)、これは良いです・・・単眼鏡って良いですね・・・ 解像度も色味も文句なしです。 スペック表では、アイレリーフが短い(合わせるのが難しい)と想像していましたが、裸眼なので接眼パットが良い仕事してくれていて全然そんなこと無く瞬間ピタっと合いました。 コンパクトで軽いし、手のひらに自然に収まるし良い買い物しました。 不満があるとすれば、ポーチが小さいことですかね・・・、これは使い物にならないので、ポーチ探しの旅に出ようと思います。 ピント合わせは、無理して片手でやる必要は無いと思っているのと、物が小さいのでそもそも男の手サイズで片手操作は厳しい、なので硬いですが不満はありません。 これお勧めですよ。 サイズ感や質感、デザインや実力、etc 所有感も満たしてくれる良い単眼鏡です。 光軸も真円でズレもありません。 ※注意)光軸の確認は、実視で見たら人によって楕円に見える場合があります(人の目の錯覚)、確認はスマホでも良いので物理レンズ側から白背景を通して画像に撮って見るとよく分かります。 最後に、レティクルは主張しないので気になりませんよ。 ちなみに、レティクルで距離計測するの何気に楽しいですよ・・・これ買ってからカード電卓買って一緒に持ち歩くようになりましたもん(笑 RECCE(偵察)の名に恥じない逸品です。 追記)ポーチにタオルをキツキツに詰めて数日おいておいたら、良い感じに広がってスムーズな抜き差しが出来るようになりました(笑 ポーチを常用するならお試しあれ。

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it float if dropped in water?**
A: It would disappear faster than the titanic. It's very stout and heavy. Well built

**Q: Is the optical performance good? Is the edge of the image circle blurry, distorted? How much of the center of the image is sharp?**
A: There is no perimeter blur and no distortion. I bought this version for the gas filled optics and not necessarily the mil for reticle , although it will be useful.

**Q: Is this HD version any better than the cheaper 8x36 monocular?**
A: Glass is much clearer

**Q: Can you see at night with them**
A: No, it is just a regular scope. No night vision or thermal capabilities

*by P***O on 18 August 2017*

A well built and rugged unit. While it's no Swarovski, at this price point the glass is excellent. There is a slight bias toward the reds - looking at a white surface through the unit vs viewing same surface via naked eye, there is a very slight pinkish tone. Without making the direct comparison, this bias is not noticeable. It's for quick peeks at stuff, not for spending a day bird-watching. :-) Haven't had a chance to check the reticule against a known size object at known distance yet, but I'm sure it fine. Reticule offset to the left so it doesn't interfere with field of view when one is not using the unit for ranging. Focus rings are quite stiff (both reticule and view focus). I suspect this is a by product of the seals. Better to have seals that will not fail vs very easy to move focus with seals that will end up leaking with use. The lens covers are a nice touch. The rubber eyepiece rotates so one that is left eye dominant can use it with the left eye. This unit will live in the console of my truck for viewing stuff at a distance when I feel the need or in the range back for viewing groups. My Swaro binos are both two damn big (and expensive) to toss in my truck for casual peeks at a distant item.
