Good for the shooting range.
I bought this to bring to range to see my targets out to 200 yards. It has no problem seeing .22lr holes at 100 yards on white paper. It gets a little hazy at 200 yards, but I can still see .22lr rounds on splash targets at that distance .270 and 7.62x39 holes are clear as day at 200 yards. 25x-50x is the sweet sopt for this scope. As you get closer to 75x the image quaility takes a hit but is still good. It does not have the greatest optics, but it serves its purpose for the distance I need. I think it would be fine out to 300 yards. If you are shooting much past that I would look into a better scope. I did not have any problem focusing as mentioned in some other reviews. The focus nob is easy to turn on mine. I'm an eyeglass wearer (astigmatism) so I need to wear my glasses at lower powers. Folding the rubber cup down on the eyepeice gives me a decent enough field of view with glasses. At around 50x and up my astigmatism doesnt bother me. This scope also accepts standard 1.25" telescope eyepeices, which is a big reason I bought it. I may invest in a higher quality zoom eyepeice with better eye relief for my glasses.The included tripod is the only bad thing about this scope. It is too wobbly to use at longer ranges and high magnification. But I knew that before I bought it and already had a silk photography tripod that the scope is rock solid on.For the price, this scope is a good value for my needs.

25x actually looks dam decent. Can see great out to 100 yards, even focus out to about 400 or 500 yards. I can even see around 1,000 yards pretty well on this setting. But again it’s 25x. It’s kind of funny. It almost allows TOO much light in. Picture is REALLY over exposed. Just imagine if you had your computer or tv screen brightness setting at 100. But I can kind of cheat that with the phone adapter I bought with it by under exposing my phone to make up for it and better the exposure.
At 35X to 75x power it’s essentially useless past 300 yards. 100 yards and closer it’s actually great picture. Clear, well zoomed. But once you look past that range it literally just fogs out. 300 yards is almost usable. 400 and beyond is literally useless at any setting past 25x. It’s like you’re using someone else’s glasses that don’t work for you. You can see what you’re looking at but it’s not crisp nor can you see object details. You can tell what you’re looking at but the edges are blurry and not defined.
The focus ring does work at lower power. Even at high power it works out, due to the limit of the lenses past 300 yards it’s just a blurry mess.
Funniest thing is, the thing everyone hates on this is the tripod. That’s actually what I like about the scope THE MOST. It’s actually decently good, the minute adjustment knobs actually work well. For 90% of us it will work great. But again the scope doesn’t cut it. I pretty much expected this, but really was hoping I’d be surprised.
Update; Ok, so the more I use this in different lighting settings. It’s starting to grow on me. Some days the picture is way more clear than others. But again. Anything past 400-500yds is a stretch. You really start to lose detail and the picture really begins to blur and fog out.
Due to the $200 to $300 options not looking much better as far as quality. I think I may end up just keeping this spotter and use it for 400 and below.
I added an extra star to the review for it growing on my slightly.

I say buy. Not the best scope but for the value it’s actually decent. Limited to about 300yds

No podría estar más en lo cierto, la calidad de imagen es sublime, evidentemente esto depende de la temperatura del día, el viento, la luz, contaminación, etc. Pero al usarlo por las tardes cuando la temperatura del día es menor, la calidad aumenta bastante, la imagen es nítida, el sol con su respectivo filtro solar es increíble, la luna, algunos objetos como las pléyades o la nebulosa de Orión se ven bien.
Con la observación de planetas es otra cosa, no tiene la limpieza de un Newton pero para eso ya necesitas un telescopio de más magnitud.
Además de contar con el adaptador de 1.25" para oculares de telescopio, es una mejora sorprendente, obvio esto depende de la calidad de tus oculares...
En conclusión es un gran producto, muy buena calidad, muy portable, cumple bien su función, recomendado para hacer visual terrestre, visual solar (con su filtro), visual lunar y visual de algún objeto grande del espacio profundo.
