OK, same deal as with the binos. Aussie dollar is strong enough to force my hand into buying some top shelf investment optics.
So, for $3000 US, what 80mm+ spotter with 20-60x would you recommend? To be used primarily for hunting, but also landscape observation, star gazing, and digiscoping with cameras. Am thinking KOWA TSN883 with 20-60x. Recommendations?

If I had $3000 to drop on a spotter, I'd have to look at a Zeiss.

Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

No hesitation at all - Kowa 884/884

What if the hokey pokey really is what it's all about?

Absolutely! The 883/884 are arguably the finest spotters on the planet at the moment. |

The new Leica with the new Aspherical eyepiece is fantastic and is in that price range.
