[QUOTE="Nitroman, post: 740292, member: 37986"] The best value under a grand is the Pentax PF80-ED. I used Leica ED spotter for one five month season then bought the Pentax and the mighty PF100-ED to compare them. If the Leica is a perfect 100, then the Pentax comes in around 90. You have to spend another $1500 to get that last nth degree of resolution, but the Leica will give that to you. I found the Pentax is MUCH brighter than the Leica at full magnification due to the 1-inch eyepiece (which is included in the price). Looking across the Kuskokwim River I could see fox and the colors of the animal with the Pentax, but the Leica would let me see the clear delineation of the colors on the animals fur. Get the Pentax.
