Spotting Scope for Brid Watching 25-75x85, BAK4 Prism, FMC Spotter Scope with Tripod, Phone Adapter, Carrying Case, for Hiking, Travel, Outdoors

The optics are very strong, the images are clear and bright, and I can easily observe birds at a distance. I went to a forest park a few days ago and spent a long time in a bird habitat with this spotting scope. Even in slightly dimmed light, the lens still provides a clear view with rich details. I especially like its portability, which is not as bulky as traditional telescopes, and is suitable for long backpacking trips. Whether observing small birds jumping between branches or raptors flying in the distance, it can be easily captured.

Overall a pretty good scope, gave it a two-stars mainly due to the focusing mechanism. I did not find the dual-focusing action intuitive. I.e., I did not know what the larger focus knob was doing nor the smaller focus knob. The result is I could never get a 100% clear image ever.One of the reviews of this (or a previous model) mentioned that it seems like something is rotating in the image as you turn the knobs and I agree. When you turn either of the knobs, a portion of the image gets blurry or in focus, while other portions get thrown off. It is really hard to tell what the focus knobs are accomplishing.Lastly, I intended to use this scope mainly for birding, which means the ability to focus quickly is important. I tried it for a birding session, and once a bird is sighted in the scope, it takes some extra time to focus, and by that time the bird is gone.So maybe if you are using this scope in a fixed setting (like at a shooting range), then this scope could work for you.It is worth noting that I was drawn to this brand because I bought a pair of their gray binoculars, which work really, really well, and are some of my top go-to binoculars. They did a great job on those binoculars, but this product is not up to the same standard compared to those.I ended up settling for a different scope, with a single-knob focus, which is suiting me well at the moment.

I wanted a rifle target spotting scope and found this is so perfect that I was even able to use this to visualize objects in high quality at 1-2 miles away. Amazing quality for the price!

I had to buy a larger tripod for this for comfortable use but that’s just me. Good product

I'm impressed with the image clarity of this spotting scope. It makes it easy to observe distant wildlife. The tripod helps keep the scope steady, and the phone mount is great for capturing photos. It's light and easy to pack, so I can take it on all my nature outings without any trouble. Definitely a practical tool for birdwatching.

The clarity of this spotting scope is excellent, making it easy to spot birds even from a distance. The included tripod is sturdy, and the phone mount is a nice touch for capturing images of what I see. It’s lightweight and portable, which makes it easy to bring along on outdoor excursions. A solid choice for birdwatching!

Bought to use for target range. 75x seems more like 40x. Debating keeping.

This spotting scope offers a clear and detailed view, which is perfect for birdwatching. The tripod is stable, and I appreciate the phone holder for taking pictures of the birds I spot. It’s also compact enough to carry around without any hassle. Very pleased with this purchase.
