Captain Spotting Scope The Captain Spotting Scope is a larger version of LittleMak. Its optical design (with multi coated optics) is Maksutov Gregorian This design does not require the use of additional lenses, mirrors or prisms to give a fully erect image. Thus, this instrument is more rugged, because there is no erecting system to come out of alignment. Another important feature of this LOMO Spotting Scope is that this instrument uses a mirror to magnify the image not a lens.

The Captain is a very durable, portable, and powerful scope. I like using it better than binoculars, which require more fussing (to bring both sides in focus) than I care to engage in. I love that the design is highly resistant to shock, and I find the size very easy to take along. Because this tiny scope has a tripod mount, it's allowed me to practice a little amateur astronomy ... I could even see Jupiter's four big moons with it! Very clear image. The only downside is that it can be a bit hard to find an image in the eyepiece for my kids (though I manage it easily).
