Performance and Price

I use a spotting scope only occasionally for birding, so I saw no reason to spend the big bucks on a Kowa, Leica, Swarovski, etc. This Celestron really does a fine job and the price is remarkable. In one review it was awarded best scope under $1000. It runs out of steam just a bit from 50-60x, but up to that point it's bright and really sharp. Biggest downside? It's heavy. Not the sort of thing you'd enjoy hauling into the bush.

Celestron performance is superb!

I posted an extensive review of this scope[@]. This scope's performs optically at a level three times its current cost. I compared it directly with the Pentax equivalent and was floored by the fact that the Celestron was entirely comparable in every optical category and actually provided better contrast. Impressive!Mechanically I have not had any problems with it and the fine focus/course focus combination is very good as well.The only real negative is that it is a heavy scope.Two big thumbs up!
