Editorial Reviews:

The Ultima 80mm offers a step up in aperture from the 65mm, offering 50% brighter images. The 80mm refractor features excellent multi-coated optics packed into a portable and durable refractor design and it comes standard with a 20-60x zoom eyepiece. This series was designed to perform well in a range of viewing situations, making it a great all-around optical instrument. You'll love it for observing nature and long distance spotting. The green metal optical tube allows for subtle observation in any nature environment. Ultima spotters are a great companion for any nature or outdoor enthusiast.

Summary: Good value
Comment: Overall, I'm very happy with this scope. I primarily use it for bird watching in my yard.
The image is sharp at 20X, however becomes a little blurry while zooming to 60X, but still not bad for the price.
Overall, decent optics, waterproof, lifetime warranty, a good value for the price.

Summary: Celestron 52250 80mm zoom spotting scope
Comment: I purchase this spotting scope for my wife, a former all-american & olympic team qualifier archer, who has recently returned to the sport. Upon arrival, the scope was easily assembled and mounted on my slik U-212 tripod for use at our home range. For 18 meters indoors it is more than adequate. For F.I.T.A. rounds outdoors to 70 meters (women) and 90 meters (men) it will also do the trick. If the majority of your rounds are shot at the longer distances, you might want to consider the Ultima 100 ed 100mm (480mm to 540mm telephoto); but for most practical purposes it should do the trick for you.
If you use the scope for outdoor shooting and/or nature watching, I might suggest that you use the slik 700dx amt tripod for a weighty balance. It will help alot in windy conditions but is a little bit on the heavy side, but it has the capability of holding most heavy view cameras plus digital slr's with very long lenses. Overall the celestron is a very good choice for the price and the warranty from a U.S. company (lifetime) cannot be beat. I own the 45 degree model plus the straight sight and they both work great.

Summary: Very good for the price
Comment: I love this cheap spotting scope ! For that price it's an excellent choice. Waterproof (well, never let it fall into the water...) and very light it's easy to carry around. Bright. It only shows some blueish aura around object with high magnification, but nothing to kill you, specially not for that price.
I have compared it to Svarowskis, and there're big differences, but I wouldn't pay 10x more ...so I'm happy with it

Summary: you do get what you pay for
Comment: Based on all the rave reviews on Amazon I purchased a Celestron 52250. I already have a Bushnell and was looking to step up. The Celestron at 20X has good image quality but once you go to the higher magnifications the image deteriorates dramatically. My advice, if you want a good scope, is spend a little more and get a Kowa.
