[QUOTE="Gixxer, post: 101816, member: 5731"] Hello to all, this is my first post here. I am about to upgrade my spotter for range use, and after looking at several different models from sports optics makers, I thought "What about telescope makers? They only make optics to look at PLANETS, the glass has to be good." So, after doing some research, I had found some spotters made by Celestron and Meade (kinda partial to Celestron, my buddy has this huge cannon looking thing otherwise known as a telescope from them, its badass), and they run from under $600 to the most badass looking ones(think watching the space shuttle launches) just a hair over $600. Some of em are not variable power, you adjust the MAG by using different sized eyepieces. Getting 100x out of em is CAKE. What do you guys think? kinda badass, $200 [url="http://www.celestron.com/prod_pgs/spot/c90_mak_04.htm"]http://www.celestron.com/prod_pgs/spot/c90_mak_04.htm[/url] really badass, $630 [url="http://www.celestron.com/prod_pgs/spot/c5_spotter_04.htm"]http://www.celestron.com/prod_pgs/spot/c5_spotter_04.htm[/url] Your input is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
