I had these and lucky for me they were stolen out of my truck. When I went to buy replacements the Diamondbacks were on sale so I pulled the trigger on those. When I first got the Crossfire I was honestly expecting to be wowed by the image just based on how everyone talked them up... I wasn't, I was honestly disappointed. The Diamondbacks were the opposite. This is what I was expecting of solid hunting binos.Then my son left those on the bumper of my truck on our first hunt this year. I'm going to miss him almost as much as I miss my binos.
No kidding they are like 180 and he’s trying to compare them to a pair that ranges 900 to a 1000 how the hell is a 150 dollar pair gonna compare to a 1k pair I love my little “ 150 dollar pair”
Honestly these guys channel is always like this. They act like the normal guy out there but they buy stuff I can barely afford. 1k might be worth it for binoculars but I spent 250 and I still felt I'd never do it again lol and loved what I got.
Im going to have to stick with my Crossfires , not willing to throw down 1K for a better Bino.... I would put my money into something I could really use thats a better investment like a new gun scope . Thanks for the video.
As someone who hunts regularly these binos are garbage, I tried them out for a weekend after reading a lot of great reviews from people that clearly don't know how to hunt or simply hunt over bait. If you are planning to spot and stalk you might as well not bring binoculars with you if these are your only option. The distortion makes it impossible to tell branches apart from antlers and I found myself constantly double checking spots with my rifle scope because the binos just weren't doing it for me. Step up to at least the diamondback HDs if you plan to spot and stalk but if you're still hunting in areas with short visibility ranges of like 50 to 100 yards the crossfires may be good enough for you but otherwise i'd say to not waste your money. Most of us prefer to run binos and a spotting scope but i'd say skip the spotting scope and just get a good pair of binos if you're on a budget.
I’m shopping for my first pair now, was looking for something relatively inexpensive. Just something to accompany me while fishing/kayaking. So far I have the vortex triumph, picked out for 100, and the vortex crossfire for 150. Have them both pulled up on the vortex website and can’t find the difference. Is there any difference in image quality whatsoever? Thanks!

Are you talking about the diamondbacks or the diamondbacks HD?
You just jumped from$150 bins to1k? I think that is a bit of a stretch to contrast $150 binos vs 1k binos. Just sayin'.

With all due respect if a good option for a budget guy, If you have 1k to blow on binos then your aren't the norm your th exception
I didn't scroll down to see your replay and basically posted a similar comment.

He got some for his 9th birthday? I just turned 26 and I'm happy!
I compared these to diamondbacks today and I couldn’t really tell the difference

Really helpful review in terms of helping me to make a buying decision. Buy once, cry once. Thanks!
At what range are they effective too, that ridge looks like it could be pretty far? I’m not glassing animals at 3 to 400 yards
Nice, I just picked me up a pair for $50 from OfferUp!

If you getting inexpensive vortex get the triumph ones instead of the crossfires. Or get the diamondbacks HD for a few dollars more.
I hunt and dont hunt enough to care or pay for expensive lens. I dont use them when driving lol
Literally 💯 my pops and uncles all spend my weekly checks on glass every season
Why are they spending your money on glasses?
People who pay 1000 or even 500 need help 😂
Is there a tripod that you can get to mount those binoculars on?
Almost any tripod
What binds do you recommend?
Why the hell are you comparing these to $1,000 models?
