I’ve seen a few fixed power spotting scopes popping up on the classifieds lately. Specifically the 30x eyepiece on the Kowa 663 prominar.
I worry that it would not give me enough zoom to judge a mule deer at long distance. Anyone have experience in the field comparing both a zoom and fixed eyepiece? I have a razor 65 mm. That would be my comparison standard vs a 30x Kowa. . . I find myself not using the highest power zoom on my razor much because it is a pretty darn bad image.
I don’t search much with a spotter. In use binos to-search and spotter to field judge.
