The angled view LandScout 12-36x60 Spotting Scope from Celestron is a lightweight entry-level zoom optic designed to be easy on the budget and easy to transport. This LandScout spotting scope has a built-in 12-36x eyepiece and includes a table top tripod, providing the observer with a system that is ready to start glassing right out of the box. A 60mm objective lens and fully coated optics transmit adequate brightness and detail to handle a range of tasks, including nature observation and spotting at the rifle range. The integrated tripod mounting collar rotates, providing the observer with alternate viewing orientations to suit their use. This configuration of the LandScout has a generously sized non-slip rubber focus ring and a 33-foot close focusing distance that makes the 12-36x60 spotting scope well-equipped for birding and other outdoor activities.
