    Theron Saker 15-45x60mm ED spotter compared to the Nikon > 20-45x60mm Non ED Fieldsco

    Hi Mannukiddo, Here is a link about someone that had problems with this scope. I don't wear glasses when using optics . The eyepiece in the Saker is similar to the Nikon variable zoom eyepieces as far as eye relief is concerned. ER gets short at higher powers...

    Theron Saker 15-45x60mm ED spotter compared to the Nikon > 20-45x60mm Non ED Fieldsco

    Hi Rick, I never tried the Celestron 20-60x80mm scope. The lack of or low level of CA in the Theron Saker 60mm ED scope is worth more to me than a chance you might get a good sample Celestron 80mm spotter. A good sample 80mm spotter will have a chance of higher resolution than a 60mm, but the C...

    With the stay on case, I just used the case ends while using the scope. I would just put up the end covers to protect while not using for a while. I would of tried black electrical tape on the caps if the scope was mine.

    "I know there are some target shooters on BF, so I set out a box to 100 yds. I had shot some .223 and BBs into." Someone teased me about the BB gun shots, this was done at about 30 ft. for both of these, all I wanted to do was make some holes and then set the target out further .;) I...

    I am sorry, I did not have any ED models on hand at that time. I do have a 80ED and 100ED astro scope, but did not compare it to those. I did not think it was fair, but I do know what ED scopes are supposed to not show. I no longer have this scope at my place.

    The other day I was looking at a small Verizon "sub station" and this is 210 yds. from my place. I found I could read the REA electric meter with both scopes, I will say I could read it a little better in the Nikon Fieldscope, the better resolution made a difference here, there was CA in the...

    Hi Steve, I love that small tractor, just wish I didn't get R2 tires and used chains in the winter instead. Turf tires would be smoother mowing. I don't know if it is removable. I will ask Pat.

    Theron Saker 15-45x60mm ED spotter compared to the Nikon > 20-45x60mm Non ED Fieldsco I was following the Theron Zen Ray and Kowa Spotters thread on Birdforum.http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=189659 I was kind of bummed out that no one had tried out the Theron 15-45x60mm ED spotter...
