Hi
I am new to this forum, and hopped somone out there could help me with finding the best of these 3 scopes:
Kowa 773 with 20-60x:
+ About £400 cheaper than 883
+ 200 grams lighter
+ 2.5 cm shorter
- A bit darker than 883
Kowa 883 with 20-60x:
+ very bright and crisp
- Price, weight, size
I could get the outgoing Swaro ATS 80HD for about the same price as 883 with a 20-60x. But I understand that from reviews like this one: http://www.optics4birding.com/kowa-tsn-773-spotting-scope-review.aspx
the Swaro is not as bright as the Kowa. But it can handle more rough treatment and -20C birding.
Thanks for advise
