Does this not also hinder holding steady?** A: It's A LOT easier to hold steady a 8X than a 10x...not always you are going to be calm enough to hold steady a 10x...Steadiness it's crucial. **Q: Hi all, I've read many reviews, and the specs...but am still unclear about what the "close focus" is. 1 foot? 10 feet? thanks!** A: Close focus is 25 feet, a little fuzzy at 20 ft. I use mine to spot bullet holes in a target when shooting with iron sights at 50 yards. Works great! **Q: how close is close focus?** A: I am estimating it to be about 15 feet. Didn't find this out until after I bought it and started using it. Would have really liked something that was more like 5 to 6 feet, or closer. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great monocular.

But .... *by E***A on September 11, 2024* I was looking for a small yet powerful and light weight monocular that I can take on hikes, one that is easy to use, good value for the money, and that will survive the rough and tumble.

But ..... using it makes me dizzy, the magnification is too strong for my eyes so I will return. A real bummer that has nothing to do with the product. I am not even sure I would be able to handle a 8x... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Impressive for the investment *by S***. on May 9, 2023* I dont often write reviews but I had to comment on this purchase. Needed to have a mono to take on trips and hikes without having to lug the binoculars (I have high quality 8x40) I tried a low cost Car..on 10x20 and was surprise how bad they were returned them promptly. After speaking to a friend expert in optics he mentioned several high quality (read costly) such as Zeiss and Opticron but I just couldn’t justify the investment for my needs. Once you unpack and hold the optics you feel the quality and ruggedness. The lens is bright and sharp but at 10x I knew I had to have a steady hand or use my other hand to brace myself … the 8x is probably easier in shaky situations. One complaint is the focus ring is a bit stiff but maybe in time it will loosen. My trick is to turn all the way right then a one index finger operation is possible by pushing slowly left and hope you don’t get past focus.. otherwise with 2 hands it is smoother and more accurate. I use the pouch in my backpack but also use the lanyard around my neck and tuck it under shirt to prevent bouncing around and dust. The eye relief is very good and doesn’t take much to get used to it. Overall it is excellent for this price point. I am sure that a 3x to 5x the price an ED glass would provide better optics but for casual observations and distance spotting you can’t go wrong. I don’t hesitate in recommending this Vortex. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vortex Optics Solo Monocular 10x25 - 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 10x25, 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.is/products/1147421-solo-monocular-10x25-adjustable-eyecup-multi-coated-lenses-rubber-armor](https://www.desertcart.is/products/1147421-solo-monocular-10x25-adjustable-eyecup-multi-coated-lenses-rubber-armor) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-08-15*
