4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Entry Level Scope - Worthless Tripod, July 6, 2009

By

This review is from: Tasco World Class 20-60x80 Zoom Waterproof/Fogproof Spotting Scope w/Tripod (Electronics)

This is about as good as it gets under $150. The 80mm objective is definitely an improvement over a 60mm objective. Brighter image and "larger" image throughout the zoom range. Any scope at any price should have an objective larger than the maximum zoom range. Even a $400 60mm scope will not have a usable magnification beyond about 45x.
If you don't own a good tripod, plan on getting one in the $35-50 price range or greater. The size is tiny. The stability is poor with the incuded scope. Get one rated for at least 7.5 lbs.
Comes with case and soft bag. Great value despite lousy mini tripod.

Amazingly, I managed to break the tripod within the first five minutes! Just forget it and buy a solid one, but the scope is worth the money, with a bright and fairly distortion-free image. The eyepoint is low though, and gets lower with higher magnification, so if you wear glasses you look through a tunnel. And remember that some spotting scopes cost 30 times as much.

For the price, i really like this package deal. i was going to order this same product from [...], but the shipping was almost $80 to hawaii! but on amazon, it was free! i was hesitant to buy it here cause it didnt say it came with a hard case like the one on opticsplanet, but it does, so it really is a good deal. the lens is extremely strong and clear. the tripod it comes with is really short, decently sturdy, but i would recommend getting a taller one. for a hard case, soft case, tripod, and scope; theres no better deal out there for under $150
