Decent value for little money - Tasco 20-60X60 World Class Spotting Scope 60mm EP 45 with Tripod WC20606045

The spotting scope itself is decent- good quality, a long enough zoom to check targets out to 100 yards, integrated sunshade, and a soft carry bag and a hard case. The tripod, though, is terrible; it's almost impossible to maneuver the scope well at any real amount of zoom. I replaced the included tripod with a $20 tabletop from the local camera shop and couldn't be happier. Aside from that, it goes with me every range trip and does the job of scopes costing two to five times the price, and does it quite well.
Pros: Good optics quality, long zoom
Cons: Terrible tripod
