Anyone compared these two spotters? Anything good or bad. I’m looking for lighter weight and one that doesn’t degrade as much in higher zooms.

I haven’t looked through the Kowa but I would be fairly sure it’s a step up from the Athlon.

The Kowa is superior to the Ares ED, however, it is twice the price and not OMG look that that difference better. The Kowa TSN-55, 77 and 88 series are their incredible units. The other scopes use their TE-9Z eyepiece which is the limiting factor for those spotters
