Good morning,
I'm after some assistance with choosing between these three scopes:
Viking 50mm ED Pro + 12-36x eyepiece
Hawke Endurance ED 12-36×50
Kowa TSN 501
I'm after a small scope for long walks in Scottish Highlands and as I'm relatively new to bird watching i like to grab a quick digiscoped photo to help me with my IDs.
They are all about the same price with deals on at the moment. Does the ED glass of the Hawke/ Viking make a significant difference? The digiscoping accessories for the Kowa are better though, so i'm having a difficult time deciding. I have a Kowa 773 and know the quality will be significantly lower, but unfortunately I don't live near somewhere i can try them out.
Any first hand reviews/advice from people who have used these, would be really useful.
Cheers
Pete
