Tasco 20-60x80 Spotting Scope (Angled Viewing)

The Tasco 20-60x80 Spotting Scope is designed to be a powerful observation tool that can be your constant companion in the field, on your porch, or at the range to view game, wildlife, and even the moon and stars.

Its exceptional zoom range allows you to scan the landscape for something interesting to look at, with the ability to dial up the magnification to make detailed observations. A large zoom ring and slip-resistant focus knob bring the scene into tack-sharp clarity at any magnification you choose. The combination of BK7 Porro prism and anti-reflection fully-coated lenses presents bright and clear high-contrast views with accurate color representation. Employing a large objective ensures views are bright and clear, especially when viewing subjects at extreme long range with the magnification dialed up to 20x.

The eyepiece is set at a 45° angle to the objective lens, and the whole body can rotate side to side when mounted on a support system so you can precisely place the eyepiece in the most comfortable viewing position possible—whether you are viewing standing, sitting, or lying prone. The extra-long eye relief and twist-up eyecup make viewing through the eyepiece easy and comfortable—even during long glassing sessions. The spotter is outfitted with a standard 1/4"-20 tripod mount to make it compatible with a wide variety of tripods, heads, and quick release plates on the market. Tasco provides a simple tabletop tripod and pan/tilt head to get you started out of the box and a soft carrying case for added protection and convenience when you're storing or transporting it.

• constellations, and satellites, and for comet hunting
• BK7 Porro prism light path has zero internal interference so views are crisp and contrast-rich
• Anti-reflection fully coated lenses maximize light transmission to produce bright and accurate colors
