    Does it have little stabilisers to press against your forehead, like one of their binocular models? ( With far less magnification). This scope needs stabilisers, and suction pads and more stabilisers to couple to your head, chin, nose, cheek. Or image stabilization. Has it got that?

    In reply to "So actually you need two scopes... I thought bird watching was a cheap hobby... not anymore, having 3 Swarovski's already" I was saying you don't need 2 scopes, or 3 swarovskis.. that won't make you a better birder. 1 pair of binocs, 1 scope, and you are good to go. As indeed I am.

    1 pair of binoculars, 1 scope and/or 1 camera if you like. I bet if you restricted yourself to that, you wouldn't miss a single animal compared to this weird inventory that is like having a set of golf clubs, but only being able to carry one of each.
