I bought the Nikon ED 50 a month ago, with the zoom to 30x and a 40x Wide eyepiece, and a Velbon carbon fiber tripod. I have loved the scope so far and it has gotten a lot of attention - being so small, and portable. I am considering purchasing a 27X Wide eyepiece. Used it to scope the first seen Bare-throated Tiger Heron seen in the US.
