I have a reasonably good quality vixen 8-24 zoom eyepiece (1.25) and was wondering which spotting scopes I could use this on. Hoping to end up with about a 60x zoom. Hoping to keep the cost around $200ish

Thanks!

Hi

Relatively few spotting scopes take telescope eyepieces. Spotting scope versions of conventional telescopes, such as the Celestron C90, C130, 102 Wideview and Refractor 80ED, as well as any Televue are good examples.

In conventional spotting scopes, very few scopes use telescope eyepieces. Try the Pentax PF65ED, PF80ED and PF100ED
