Looking for quality spotter, any info would be great.
Also looking at the swarovski range finder.

I dont have the 65mm model but do have a couple of the Swarovski ATS 80 HD's and simply love them. I am not concerned with the weight or size so that's why I went with the 80mm. I dont think you can go wrong with either the Zeiss or Swarovski spotters.

As far as the Swarovski Laser Guide RF's, I have a pair of them and while the optical quality is superior the range finding abilities have something to be desired, I find myself using my Leica 1200's alot more when ranging, they are not as good inn the optics department but the ranging is awesome with them.

just some thoughts.........

Swarovski range finder are the only ones I would buy. They work great and they have a great customer service.

If your looking at the Swaroski you need to take a look at the Leica 1200. I have experience it first hand and its has amazing abilities.

I`ve owned the Zeiss diascope 65 and I can tell anyone that is is great glass. I use it while hunting my beloved desert MULE DEER, and even the little coues deer down here in sozona. they are clear, steady, and don`t hurt my eyes after looking through it for hours. would`nt change a thing.
