So I’m about to upgrade from my bins to a first scope. I can only really afford mid range, especially as I want to get a decent tripod and iPhone digiscoping adapter. The three I’m looking at in order of preference are
1. Celestron Regal M2 80
2. Hawke Endurance ED20 85
3. Vanguard Endeavour HD 82A.
Tripod I’m looking at is Vanguard Alta Pro 263AT.
I could potentially go a bit more expensive but I’d really rather not.
Does anyone have experience with these scopes? I’m not an optics expert so please do dumb down technical speak
