Hi,
After reading all about spotting scopes in this group plus lots of
reviews I finally bought one. An Optilon T90ED (including tripod) from
Birds Australia. Bit apprehensive about buying one without trying it
out but it has turned out great. A bit surprised at the packaging. 3
large boxes. One contains the scope in a cardboard box plus the
tripod. The second contained an aluminium suitcase with foam inserts
for transporting the scope. The third contained a scope cover, as well
as a soft bag to carry the tripod and scope!
Bright clear image with very little visible chromatic abberation. Had
it out at the weekend at Alfred Cove on the south bank of the Swan River
(Perth). Not many waders out on the sandbars but what there were gave
great views. Plus fantastic views of a pair of Osprey with juvenile
offspring.
Very pleased with it, and I can thoroughly recommend it. I have heard
the T80ED is just as good.
Cheers
Andrew
