20-60x60 Bresser spotting scope? (1 Viewer)

[Triturus26]

Any thoughts on this spotting scope. Is it good for beginners? Thank you

Could you post a link to one, so we can be sure of the model you are referring to.

Thanks

approximately £40 on Amazon, it might be O.K. but without looking through one it’s difficult to say.

I haven't used the Bresser, but I do have experience with low end spotting scopes.


I had a Redfield Rampage 20-60x60mm and found it very frustrating to use. I pretty much didn't ever use it and went binos only. Then I tried a high end spotting scope and saw the utility. I ended up buying a Nikon 82ED and I use it frequently.

I have had similar scopes and the image quality is poor.

It is better than nothing.

There will also be a lot of sample variation.

Additionally, sometimes the actual size is less than 60mm.

Perhaps try one and if possible return it if not satisfied.

Regards,
B.

Hi,

I think I bought a used example once for 10€ from the classifieds along with sth else from the same seller... iirc it was awful and I'm not sure if it still exists - may well have been butchered for parts...
