Always finding a way to go off topic...
Hey all, I made a thread previously about scopes, but I have recently found one here ->
And I wanted to ask about what the numbers mean; bearing in mind I have 0 experience with scopes so a few pointers would be appreciated. So am I correct in saying the 20-60 means how far it can zoom so would it be similar to a 600mm lens? And the 80 is how high the magnification can go? This specific scope weighs 1.3kg, so does anyone use any tripods that easily support this weight? Furthermore, has anyone had any experience with this scope model? If so how has it performed?
Cheers,
Ev
