Not a great scope

 

Bought scope for use on holiday to spot wildlife from a country cottage, so casual use only. Quality of lens poor, and focusing only good at low to mid magnification. Anything past 45 x zoom poor, even in good light.

Simple Controls

I have purchased one of these and I got really very well impressed with the overall image quality. I bought one but I end up returning and changing to a 52247 model. This spotting scope is somehow bigger than it appears in the picture. I had an idea...

Great scope for the money

 

Great scope for the money

This is a pretty impressive scope for the money. It is well made by a respectable company. The 80mm objective makes it brighter than the typical 65mm scope, and the optics are very clear at 20X. By the time you zoom it to 60X, the view is much dimmer...
