Spotting Scopes

Primarily used for bird watching & other naturalist activities, for hunting, verifying a marksman's shots, and for any other application at distance that requires more magnification than a pair of binoculars may offer. Spotting scope eyepieces are usually interchangeable to give different magnifications, generally in the region of 60x, with zoom eyepieces also available. The spotting telescope eyepiece mount layout can be straight through (the eyepiece is on the same axis as the body of the scope), or angled (the eyepiece is at an angle of typically 45 degrees to the body of the spotting scope). Popular models include the Celestron Ultima, Hummingbird & Landscout ranges. Other leading brands such as Meade and Vanguard also offer spotting scopes.
