Nikon spotting scope by Jimbo, November 22, 2014
Great spotting scope. Nikon has very good optics. Easy to see the grouping at 300 yards. This is my first spotting scope and I could not have asked for a better scope. It meant all my expectations. I would rate the product a clear 5

Helpful Negative Review
This scope has a very short eye relief. Your eye has to almost touch the lens. It is very shaky and difficult to focus. Made of plastic and in China. Very dissapointed.
