CVLIFE 20-60x80MM Spotting Scope, Spotting Scopes for Target Shooting, BAK4 HD Waterproof Spotter Scope for Birding and Wildlife with Tripod, Phone Adapter and Carrying Bag, Black

Sharp and clear with lots of adjustability. Stand is stable and east to setup. iPhone holder included! Cant wait to take out for some nature photos with my iPhone.

All the bells and whistles type of scope with a nice design. All the features work. Phone adapter is an added bonus. Well designed lens cap that easily clips on. Smaller field of view with yellow fringing along the outer edge. Sharp enough before atmospheric conditions becomes more of a factor, but darker. Darker and blurrier at higher magnifications (limits of physics for a zoomable eyepiece). Tripod works, but not the best. Overall, a good value, beginner's scope. Will make a good gift.

I took the CVLIFE spotting scope to the gun range yesterday, and it definitely proved its worth. I was spotting targets out to 300 yards with no problem. The zoom is powerful, and even at higher magnifications, the image stayed clear enough to call shots accurately. It made a big difference in tracking groupings without walking downrange every few minutes.The optics are bright and sharp. The 80mm lens really brings in light, and the clarity surprised me, especially given the price. The setup was straightforward, and the tripod held steady throughout the session, even on a slightly uneven surface.I also brought it out for bird watching earlier this week, and it handled both close and distant viewing really well. The range of magnification makes it flexible for different uses, from scanning tree lines to focusing in on fine details.One thing that took some effort was getting my phone mounted correctly to the holder. The alignment isn’t super intuitive, and it took a few tries to get the camera centered. But once I had it dialed in, I was able to snap some decent pictures right through the eyepiece.Build quality is solid. The rubber grip feels secure, and it handled some early morning fog at the range without any issues. The sunshade came in handy, too, reducing glare during peak daylight hours.Overall, this is a great spotting scope for the range, nature observation, or even casual stargazing. It’s packed with value, and with a bit of patience setting up the phone holder, it becomes a really fun and functional tool.

I have another brand spotting scope, of another brand, as well. This scope is just as good. The glass is clear and it zooms in well.It has a yellow ring around the very edge of the scope when viewing. I have not seen this in other scopes. That is to say when looking through it, there is a yellow ring around the outside edge of the view. As though a ring is just outside the edge of the glass and is glowing yellow.This does not impede my view. This is only at the very edge.Maybe an impurity in the glass.Either way, 99% of the view is unaffected by this.Just thought I would let you know.I would recommend this. It works well. Comes with a tripod, carry case, and phone mount.

Great scope!!! Perfect vision and size. Can be used for spotting or spying LOL It is a good deal and very well made.Giftable

The quality of the construction of this spotting scope is marvelous. The outer shell is coated in soft touch polymer. The lenses are spotless. The tripod is so-so. You really need to crank down hard on the handle to get enough friction to overcome the weight of the scope.I have absolutely perfect vision. No blur at all what-so-ever. That is not the case with this scope. No matter how carefully I focused, there was no way to get a perfectly crisp image. It is more than adequate for enjoying a magnified image of something, but you aren't going to win a national geographic photo of the year award with this.If you plan to use the phone adapter, you will need to use pro mode on a modern phone. With my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, the phone would switch camera lenses while I was focusing the scope. That means you have to physically relocate the phone to center it on the scope again. Even in pro mode it would switch cameras right at the point I almost had things focused.For the price it is great, assuming your goals isn't to take pictures.
