More air-to-glass surfaces and more glass in general mean higher standards when it comes to transmission. We didn't expect the new model might exceed significantly the high 89.4% level, reached by its predecessor. On the other hand, we didn't expect such a distinct worsening of performance either. The level we got, 81.4%, is something we could tollerate in a roof prism priced around 100 Euro, not in the segment the Vortex Viper aspires to.

All air to glass surfaces in the Vortex Viper HD are fully multi-coated with Vortex’s proprietary XR anti-reflective lens coatings, improving light transmission, contrast and resolution. The optical system features phase corrected and dielectric coatings on the prism surfaces that further enhance light transmission across the visible spectrum, and improve contrast, colour fidelity and resolution. At the objective end Vortex have used special High Density (HD) extra low dispersion glass elements to reduce the degrading effect of chromatic aberration (colour fringing).

I used the Vipers extensively in all sorts of conditions, from the soft drizzle that’s endemic to West Cork, to full on horizontal rain driven by a raging south-westerly gales. They came through it admirably unscathed and delivering constantly pristine views. However, since the vortex binocular has a supportive chest harness, this one ounce will not affect you.
