La visibilidad es muy nítida y la distancia bastante buena Review: bluffant ! - Ça respire la qualité , livré avec un étui que je trouve très pratique avec en plus une petite dragonne autour du cou et un essuie vitres. Lumineux , propre , large ... la luminosité est pareil qu’avec nos propres yeux on peut distinguer beaucoup de détails Les deux seules défauts constatés sont le poids ( Qui est compréhensible pour que la lunette soit solide ) Et la vue qui n’est pas vraiment stabilisé ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Brand | Vortex | | Eye piece lens description | Monocentric | | Model name | Solo Monocular | | Objective lens diameter | 36 Millimeters | | Optical tube length | 5 Inches | | Telescope mount description | Equatorial Mount | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Vortex - **Eye piece lens description:** Monocentric - **Model name:** Solo Monocular - **Objective lens diameter:** 36 Millimeters - **Optical tube length:** 5 Inches ## Images ![Vortex Optics Solo Monocular 10X36 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71AfIFIxGTL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Should I go for this or for the 8x36 version? I plan to use it at concerts, while hiking and when sailing.** A: Since you mentioned sailing, get the 8x36 version. As power increases, hand shake becomes more noticeable. It's also worth noting the extra eye-relief the 8x has over the 10x: you'll appreciate the eye-relief if you wear corrective lenses and/or sunglasses. **Q: What is the length, circumference & weight of this monocular...? Can it be used 1-handed...?** A: 2" x 5" dk weight needs 2nd hand to focus but can use 1-handed if already focused. wonderful clarity of vision **Q: Is this "Made in U.S.A." product? China?** A: Hello, this is made in China? "Vortex Optics S136 Solo 10x36 Monocular" **Q: Also -- I wear progressive lenses (eyeglasses). Is there a better model to accomodate that?** A: I also wear progressive lenses - Like all monoculars, useing them is like looking thrugh a soda straw - This brand and model is better than the smaller, cheaper brands, but it will take some getting used to - learn to point with your nose, then bring the monocular to your eye - Best wishes ... ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excelente Calidad *by S***O on 8 May 2023* Cumple las expectativas de calidad, se siente rígido y bien fabricado.

My old monocular of 30+ years, having given up the ghost, I was looking for a replacement. This Vortex 10 x 36 is, in my (experienced but not expert) opinion, about as good as it gets. I have seen no sign of chromatic abberation (fringeing) and the viewing field is sharply focused practically right across. (On cheaper models it is often only the centre of the viewing picture that stays in focus) It is not very heavy and is comparitively small, fitting snugly in the hand thanks to the rubber armour. It is actually a very solidly put together optic and although I haven't dropped it yet (!) it looks and feels like it could easily survive occasional rough handling. Unlike others here, I had no problems with the focusing ring being stiff. Perhaps that problem has been fixed? In use, the Vortex offers up a bright, clear image. 10x magnification is about all you would effectively need, since anything more powerful would be almost impossible to use because of the natural movement you encounter with one-handed operation on a narrow field of view. What's critical is the diameter of the objective lens. Most monoculars have objective lenses of around 25mm. But the bigger this number, the more light gets in and the brighter and clearer the image you will see. Of course, the bigger the lens, the bigger the device, so a balance has to be struck. And, for me, Vortex have got it bang on with a 36 mm lens in a compact, rugged and, it has to be said, quite stylish looking device with superb optical performance. If I have to be picky, it's the case it comes with. This is open at the sides which can let dirt in. Also the belt loop is fixed with a press stud. This came undone on my first outing. However a bit of swift needlework has now permanently closed the loop, so problem solved. Lens caps would also be a real advantage. But the sheer optical quality, manufacturing excellence and performance in the field, to say nothing of the lifetime guarantee, are more than enough for me to give 5 stars. If you are looking for a powerful monocular with robust performance that could easily last you a lifetime, I recommend this without hesitation. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vortex Optics Solo Monocular 10x36 - Utility Clip, Adjustable Eyecup, Fully Multi-Coated Lenses, Rubber Armor, Non-Slip Grip, Fogproof, Waterproof - Unlimited, Unconditional Warranty - Mchoi Hard EVA Travel Case for Vortex Optics Solo Monocular 8x36 &10x25 / ROXANT Grip Scope View Monocular(CASE ONLY) - GOSKY Smartphone Adapter Mount Regular Size - Compatible with Binoculars, Monoculars, Spotting Scopes, Telescope, Microscopes Fits almost all Smartphones on the Market Record Nature and The World --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/257591598-vortex-optics-solo-monocular-10x36](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/257591598-vortex-optics-solo-monocular-10x36) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-19*
