Cheap spotting scope
« on: December 09, 2013 »

Lidl have these scopes in again for £29.99, 20-60x zoom with a carry case and small tripod. Came in stock today so should still be plenty in stores for a couple of days.

I stopped by around 12 today in derry and there was around 10 or so. They tend to go fairly quick so I wouldn't chance it on waiting if you did want one at your local store.

Also bear in mind while it does come with a carry case and tripod, the case is just flimsy nylon and the tripod only suitable for a desk/table setup. So you are going to need something padded for carrying in and a decent sized tripod for use outdoors.

Did have that problem when I was fiddling with it to test how it was, sat in the carpark with houses over the road probably didn't look the best.......
