[QUOTE="4th_point, post: 385354, member: 13585"] I just bought an ED50 and have carried it on a couple of short hunts. I really like how compact it is. I paid $400 for a refurb with 16x digiscoping eyepiece, then got a 13-30x zoom eyepiece for $50. I'm using a Slik Sprint Pro with it. Before the ED50, I had a Stokes Sandpiper 15-45x65, but never packed this scope. The Sandpiper had a great image for the price, and was lightweight for a 65mm but was too bulky for me. I have also used the Leupold 10-20x40. Nice and compact, but I wasn't impressed by the image quality. I also thought about the 50mm Leupold, but the ED50 seems to be the #1 compact scope with many people. Its really a nice image with excellent depth of field. [/QUOTE]
