Choosing a spotting scope – understanding the key specifications

If you're new to long-distance observation, you'll likely come across some numbers when searching for the right optics. Model names often feature sequences like 20–60x80, 15–45x50, or 9–27x56. We'll break down what these mean and what other specifications you should consider.

Magnification and zoom

Spotting scopes stand out from binoculars mainly due to their higher magnification, which typically ranges from 10x to 80x. The number before the "x" indicates the level of magnification. If a range is shown, the scope has a zoom function that allows you to smoothly adjust the magnification. If only a single number is listed, the spotting scope has a fixed focal length, meaning the magnification cannot be changed.

TIP: If you're not familiar with magnification, it can be hard to visualise its effect. Here's a simple formula to help: Magnification x 100 = the distance in metres at which an object appears to be 100 metres away.

Objective diameter

What about the second number after the "x"? This figure refers to the objective diameter of the spotting scope in millimetres. The rule of thumb is: the larger the diameter, the more light the optics gather, resulting in a brighter image. However, a larger objective diameter also increases the weight of the scope. If you plan to transport your spotting scope frequently, it's important to find the right balance between size and portability.

Field of view

The field of view specifies the width of the area you can see at 1,000 metres. Higher magnifications usually result in a narrower field of view, which can make tracking moving objects more difficult. Sometimes, the field of view is also expressed as an angle. You can easily convert this to metres by multiplying the angle by 17.45 (angle x 17.45 = field of view in metres).

Relative brightness and twilight factor

Relative brightness indicates how bright the image will be, while the twilight factor shows how well details can be seen in low light. The higher these values, the better the image quality at dusk. However, these figures only provide limited information, as they are based on the objective diameter and magnification, and don't take into account other factors like glass type or coatings. Therefore, these values aren't the best for comparing different optics. However, when all other factors are the same – such as within the same series – relative brightness and twilight factor can help you choose the right spotting scope for your needs.

Spotting scope performance – recognising quality features

Discerning users expect the best from high-end optics. But what features really enhance a spotting scope's performance and make long-distance viewing more enjoyable?

Glass material

Lenses and prisms are crucial components of spotting scopes and should be made from high-quality optical glass. The standard material, Bk-7 (borosilicate glass), used in BRESSER's entry-level optics, offers good image quality. A step up is BaK-4 glass (barium crown glass), which provides brighter and more detailed images. BRESSER's premium models use superior ED glass (Extra-low Dispersion), which delivers exceptionally high-contrast, true-to-colour, and razor-sharp images by minimising chromatic aberration during the manufacturing process.

Lens coatings

The amount of light that reaches your eye through the spotting scope is crucial for image quality. The rule is simple: the more light, the brighter and more contrast-rich the image. To boost light transmission and reduce reflections, lenses and prisms are coated with mineral layers, known as coatings. A fully coated lens can allow up to 60% more light into the optical path compared to an uncoated lens. However, there's always room for improvement, too: from fully multi-coated lenses to BRESSER's advanced UR coatings (Ultimate Reflection) and even dielectric coatings, each offering better light transmission and image quality.
 

Eyepiece for spectacle wearers

For both spotting scopes and binoculars, getting the right distance between your eye and the eyepiece is key to seeing the full field of view. If you wear glasses, it's essential to choose a scope with an appropriate eyepiece. A spotting scope with a twist-up or fold-down rubber eyecup lets you adjust this distance to account for the space between your glasses and your eyes. An eye relief of at least 13.5 mm is recommended for comfortable viewing with glasses

Weather resistance

Outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers know that the weather can be unpredictable, often leaving you caught in the rain during an excursion. That’s why it’s important to choose a spotting scope with a waterproof housing to keep moisture out. Additionally, a protective gas filling, such as nitrogen or argon, can be beneficial. This helps prevent the lenses inside the spotting scope from fogging up during sudden temperature changes.

Spotting scope accessories – everything you need

Tripod

Whether you’re observing the intricate feathers of a rare waterbird or the impressive rock formations in the distance, thanks to their high magnification, spotting scopes offer captivating detail from afar. However, as magnification increases, so does the sensitivity to hand movements like shaking. That’s why a tripod is essential for keeping your view steady. Without one, it would be hard to get a clear image by hand, as the view would be too shaky. Make sure to choose a tripod that suits both your spotting scope and how you plan to use it. Consider the following criteria when you are selecting a tripod:

  • Weight: If you’ll be on the move a lot, opt for a lightweight, portable model.
  • Load capacity: The tripod must securely support your spotting scope. Ensure the scope isn’t too heavy for the tripod you choose.
  • Tripod head: It’s a good idea to test different options before buying, to see if you prefer a pan-tilt or ball head mount.

Digiscoping adapter

With digiscoping, you can quickly turn your spotting scope into a telephoto lens for your camera, allowing you to capture stunning moments in nature. It’s a great way to relive those experiences and share them with others. To get started, you don’t need expensive specialised equipment – just grab your smartphone and a phone mount to position the camera lens over the eyepiece. For those more experienced with digiscoping, a mirrorless or DSLR camera can be connected using the appropriate adapter.

Carrying case

Spotting scopes are delicate optical instruments that need to be stored safely. If you’re regularly taking your scope on outdoor adventures, a suitable carrying case is essential. BRESSER spotting scopes come with a protective case as standard, keeping them safe from dirt and impacts during transport. For convenience, special cases let you quickly remove the eyepiece and objective lens covers, getting you ready to observe in no time. Whether it’s for sport, hunting, astronomy, or nature observation – explore the range in the BRESSER online shop to find the perfect spotting scope for your hobby.


FAQ

Which device is better depends on what you’re using it for. Spotting scopes, with their higher magnification – up to 80x – allow you to see many details from a great distance. However, binoculars offer a wider field of view, making it easier to follow moving objects, and with the advantage of using both eyes, they enable more comfortable viewing.
A good spotting scope should provide sharp, high-contrast, and true-to-colour images over long distances. However, cheaper models often suffer from chromatic aberrations, which can be distracting. High-end spotting scopes use premium glass and advanced coatings to deliver razor-sharp, detailed, and high-contrast images.
Spotting scopes are versatile optics used for long-distance observation by hunters, marksmen, nature lovers, and birdwatchers. They’re also used in astronomy, for example, to observe the Moon’s surface and constellations. Telescopes, on the other hand, are specifically designed for night sky observation, which requires specialised optics like higher magnifications, longer focal lengths, and larger objective lenses or mirrors.
Numbers like 15–45x60 or 20–60x80 refer to the scope’s magnification range and objective diameter. The first range shows the magnification levels, which are usually adjustable. If there’s only a single number, the scope has a fixed magnification, which cannot be changed. The number after the β€œx” indicates the diameter of the objective lens in millimetres.

Spotting scopes are ideal for long-range observations. With their high magnification, typically ranging from 20x to 80x, they reveal many details of a subject even from a great distance.
A spotting scope consists of an objective lens, an eyepiece, and a tripod. Light collected by the objective lens is directed through precisely aligned lens systems inside the scope. The object is then viewed through the eyepiece at the desired magnification, which can be adjusted in many models using a zoom function. A focus wheel allows for precise focusing. Unlike binoculars, spotting scopes are monocular, meaning you look through them with one eye. Models with a 45-degree angled eyepiece offer particularly comfortable viewing.
Yes, taking photos through a spotting scope is known as digiscoping. For quick videos and snapshots, using a smartphone camera with an adapter positioned over the eyepiece works well. For higher-quality images, DSLR and mirrorless cameras can be attached to the spotting scope using the appropriate adapter.
