Rigel Quikfinder on Kowa TSN 661 (1 Viewer)

I have affixed the Rigel Quikfinder to my Kowa TSN-661. The height of this finder makes it easy to find objects on an angled spotting scope. Enables me to quickly find objects (e.g., planets in the night sky, nest in a tree).

I will be adding the Kowa TSN-663M Prominar XD to my optics. Will probably use the older TSN-661 for simple night sky observing, and the Kowa TSN-663M for daytime nature observing.

I love the Kowa 660 series. Nothing could be easier.
 
Hi,

Sounds great - I'm a big fan of reflex sights, too!

Here are some pictures of my setup, using a compact air gun sight on a Kowa TSN-883:

If you have photos of your mounting, I'd love to see them!

Regards,

Henning
