Some Useful Facts About Spotting Scopes
1. A spotting scope is a small telescope created mainly for long-distance terrestrial viewing. They come in several varieties, and typically have magnifications of 20x to 60x.
2. If you frequently move from place to place when you hunt, hike, or watch birds, you may want to consider a collapsible scope. They are very portable, and relatively easy to store.
3. For birdwatching, the recommended magnification is 20x to 30x, as it provides a bright, crisp image without compromising your field of view.
4. Angled scopes are the most versatile. They can be used by people of varied heights, and are the best spotting scope option for stargazing.
5. Straight scopes are best for use from a vehicle, window, or balcony.
6. Although designed for daylight observation, spotting scopes can definitely be used for stargazing. Spotting scope accessories like telescopic lenses can be used for a clearer nighttime view.
