Questions & Answers
I now have a Leupold Golden Ring 15-30 X50 spotting scope. Will it be an upgrade in sharpness and clarity to buy the Celestron Regal M2 65ED scope? Expert Answer

I believe it will be an upgrade. Bare minimum the Celestron has a larger objective lens and has ED (Extra-low dispersion) glass whereas the Leupold has a smaller objective lens and standard multi-coated glass. The larger lens and ED glass will provide a crisper image with better colors and detail.

I had a chance to critically check two of these against a Nikon ED 50mm and Celestron M2 80mm. Optics of 65mm are nearly equal to Nikon and better than M2 80mm. Focus is precise, snaps into focus and mount is solid enough to resists shake on good t...
