First the not so good.As stated in other reviews,it would be better if the eyepiece was smaller or had a thin rubber contoured boot to block light glare.It does have a zoom out eye piece cover, but does nothing for eye to surface seal.The nylon soft case seemed nice at first, as it has access snap flaps for use when mounted on tripod.The second time I put scope in soft case, it split a seam.Maybe my bad!Didn't buy it for that option any way.Does'nt come with user friendly directions,which brings me to the good news.It has a small knob on the side that allows you to turn the off set lens style,360 degrees.It also comes with a slide out front lens shield,great for cutting glare.Clarity at this price was a pleasant surprise!If I was able to shoot a hole in leaf on tree at 500 yards,I would have seen it with this scope.And looking at the moon was to say the least,unforgetable.
Pros: Lens overall clarity and brightness,for a great price.
Cons: Larger than normal O.D. eye piece,loose fitting lens cap
