Hi guys, I’m looking at taking my first foray into spotting scopes and the Nikon EDG range has caught my eye, problem is I really cannot find that many reviews about them. From what I can tell, they seem to be being phased out in favour of the monarch range?
I guess my questions are, is the EDG 85 any good? It’s getting old now so I wonder how it compares to newer scopes, like the monarch range and others.
Do you know if Nikon plan to upgrade/re-release the EDG series?
The top end of my budget is around £2k but i’d like to get away for less, can you recommend any other scopes that are better in the price range?
I’ll mostly be using the scope from my apartment/balcony for viewing birds, boats and marine life.
Many thanks in advance!
