Pros: Image quality and clarity, performance, weigh, portability.
Cons: Nikon don't do a stay on case but good one's can now be purchased elsewhere.

Bought this about six months ago as I already have the Nikon ED82 which uses most of the same eye pieces. Now I tend to use it more than the larger scope for magnification up to 27x.

For a 50mm light weight travel scope, this is the best I have come across although it works best at lower magnifications but cannot compete with an ED82mm scope at higher magnifications.

Pros: light to carrry and easy to use with a monopod
Cons: no fine controle knob

I have one and use it to digiscope. It is compact and light. With a light weight monopod it is very transportable. I just bought an Optricon G52 ED and although it is a little heavier and bulkier than the Nikon I prefer it. I also use the Optircon with the CMOS telecam so have not tried digiscoping with it.
