Features

  • PREMIUM ED GLASS FOR CRYSTAL-CLEAR DETAIL Extra-low dispersion (ED) glass delivers exceptional clarity, contrast, and color accuracy across the entire magnification range. Designed to reduce chromatic aberration, the Maven CS.1 spotting scope provides sharp, high-definition images for hunting, wildlife viewing, and long-range target spotting.
  • VERSATILE 15-45X MAGNIFICATION RANGE The 15-45x zoom eyepiece allows quick adjustment from wide-angle scanning to detailed long-distance observation. Ideal for spotting game, evaluating antlers, birdwatching, and identifying distant targets at the range.
  • COMPACT 65MM OBJECTIVE WITH BRIGHT PERFORMANCE The 65mm objective lens strikes the perfect balance between brightness and portability, gathering ample light for clear viewing in early morning and late evening conditions while remaining lightweight enough for backcountry hunts and extended field use.
  • DURABLE, WEATHERPROOF CONSTRUCTION Built for harsh outdoor conditions, the CS.1 spotter features a rugged, waterproof and fogproof housing with a durable rubberized exterior for protection and a secure grip in wet or cold environments.
  • SMOOTH PRECISION FOCUSING SYSTEM A responsive focusing mechanism allows fast, precise adjustments to dial in sharp images quickly. Whether glassing distant ridgelines or spotting impacts on steel targets, the CS.1 delivers reliable performance in the field.
  • FIELD-READY DESIGN FOR HUNTERS & SHOOTERS The angled body design improves viewing comfort when mounted on a tripod and makes long glassing sessions easier. Perfect for big game hunting, birding, wildlife observation, competitive shooting, and long-range target practice.

I currently own a Vortex Viper HD 20-60x85 which is a great spotting scope, but it's heavy, long, and not ideal for backcountry treks. My goal was to find a mid-range spotter (30x realm) with great clarity, light weight, and less than $1,000. Of all the manufacturers and models out there, I was limited to the Athlon Ares and Maven CS.1. Both met my price requirement (both about $800 list price) and specs are near identical (e.g. 2.5 - 3.0 lbs, 15-45 magnification). Both performed very close, so you can't go wrong with either. While I was disappointed the Maven didn't include a neoprene skin and the mag adjust was stiff, it excelled in picture clarity, even on a sign 4 miles away. I would highly recommend this scope. ... show more

    • Great optics, great features
Style: Angled
Great binoculars. Great clarity, especially for the price. Reasonable weight when carrying The spinning mount ring is critically valuable. The one star was taken off because I can’t do the angled viewing. I was frustrated when I spotted something with the binoculars on the tripod, I then had to readjust the tripod and re-require the target due to the angled viewer. I returned the angled Maven and bought the same one in straight view. ... show more

    • Brightest spotting scope for the money
Style: Angled
Great scope and compared to other manufactures I kept the Maven. It was clear, bright and the color on objects 800 yards out to 2 miles was excellent. I love the fact it is lighter and shorter so it fits in my pack for long range elk viewing. No problem seeing 30 caliber bullet holes at 500 yards. Will try it at 750 next time out. Maven is a game changer. ... show more

So already had what I would consider a very good Vortex HD Viper spotting scope, which I can't enough about from an image perspective, the one minus of the Vortex was the weight, its an anchor. When compared side by side to the Maven, the edge to edge clarity and magnification are very close. Color on the Vortex is a tad better but not enough to account for the additional 17 oz in weight especially when hunting. If I'm picking apart a hillside all day long the Maven is definitely up to the task and even if its a good 5-6 miles out, I'll be able to judge game accurately. Beyond that, neither one of these is going to do that but in all honesty, I probably wouldn't make it to that canyon anyway. ... show more
