Superb Quality Scope

I've used this scope for almost a month now. The fit, finish, and optics quality is everything that Meopta claims - superb. The eyepiece rotates very smoothly as does the focusing ring, with just enough friction to maintain control. I bought this scope mostly for birding but have been very much impressed with how well it does double duty as a grab-n-go astronomical scope for larger planets, star clusters and brighter nebulas. This is coming from someone who use TeleVue and Takahashi refractors. I can't say enough good things about this scope, absolutely delighted with its performance.

The Meopta MeoPro 20-60x80 Angled View HD Spotting Scope combines a 20-60x wide angle eyepiece, extra-low dispersion HD glass lenses and a nitrogen-filled housing to create a high-magnification zoom optic designed for low-light and weatherproof performance. An 80mm fluorite objective lens is engineered for maximum light gathering ability and color fidelity. Lens elements are fully multicoated with Meopta's proprietary MeoBright anti-reflective coating, which maximizes the light transmitted throughout the optical path and enhances image contrast. Exposed lens surfaces are also finished with MeoShield scratch-resistant coatings.

Durable construction and user-friendly design match the optical performance of the MeoPro 80 spotting scope. The CentricDrive focus wheel is oversized and textured for non-slip focusing in the rain or when wearing gloves. The objective housing is nitrogen-purged and gasket-sealed to deliver waterproof and fogproof imaging in freezing temperatures and high humidity. For added protection, a magnesium and aluminum chassis provides a shock-resistant foundation for the optical system. The retractable aluminum sunshade, long 18.5mm eye relief and rotating/locking tripod collar make the MeoPro 80 a full-featured spotting scope for a wide range of outdoor observing tasks.
