Hello everyone,
I just wanted to ask that if money and weight for a telescope was no objective then what would be the best scope out there to buy right now?
I think i have narrowed it down to two scopes
a) Swarovski ATX 95mm with the 30-70x eye piece
or
b) Kowa TSN-883 with the 1.6x extender
Really appreciate any advice anyone could pass on with these two scopes and also the best place to purchase one, and even if it might be best to wait until bird fair to have a proper look through them both? So far i have only looked through the Swarovski but was thoroughly impressed but the more i tried to research is online on various blogs and review sites the more i kept on seeing the Kowa scope.
Im currently using the Opticron HR 80 GA ED which has and still is been great but just feel ready for the step up to one of the best scopes out there
Thanks once again for any advice!
Happy Birding!
