[QUOTE="Hotmail, post: 2973878, member: 128098"] Sure sounds like you want a 15-45x55 spotting scope. The 15x or 18x binoculars are going to cost way more money if you actually want some clear ones and probably weigh just as much or heavier. Kowa 553 or 554:if your budget is under $2000 which is what the good quality 15x or 18x binoculars would cost anyways. They're ridiculously clear and super light and B&H was selling them for $1499 maybe call them see if they give a better price over the phone or call Doug at Cameraland for price quote last price for them IIRC was $1399 at Cameraland few months ago. It's the ultimate in lightweight only 28.5 ounces top of the line spotter with the best glass that money can possibly buy. It's a one and done spotter. No need to ever upgrade if you already bought the best on the first try. If you don't mind lugging a heavy 50 ounce15-45x65 Chinese Athlon Ares UHD Gen 2 for around $450 it's rated best in class in the $500 price point. Call around for the best prices maybe you can get one for closer to $400 shipped. I'd say man up and go for the best on the first try with the Kowa 553 or 554 lightest possible top of the line spotter you can ever buy only 28.5 ounces. [/QUOTE]
