If you're the guy who spends 90% of your time behind your binos and then switches to a spotter to get a closer look then this is the one for you. It's really quite mind blowing how light and compact this little scope is. The ultra fine focus makes it incredibly easy to focus on even the smallest of details, letting you know if it's worth making that long trek for your sought after game. The glass quality is quite literally unmatched. Side by side with a swaro 65mm and this little scope's clarity clearly wins. It's only in the brightness that the swaro can edge it out. But at more than double the weight and 10mm more objective lens that's to be expected. Still the difference is hardly noticeable. There is no question whatsoever that this is the absolute best compact spotter money can buy. Magnification range, clarity, size, and weight are quite literally unmatched in the compact arena. Yes it's expensive, but you definitely won't regret it, when it comes to glass you absolutely get what you pay for and this is the best there is.
