If you're looking for a high-quality spotter, don't bother reading further. This is a "dumpster diving" review of a budget spotter I'm only using for 50yrd pistol matches or 100yrd rifle matches. In this case, size and weight are key factors and the ability to see a .22" bullet hole is the deciding factor.
SVbony is one of the bigger brands in budget-to-midrange astronomy optics, so I wanted to see if any of that telescope expertise made it down to their least expensive spotting scope, the SV28. The optic clarity for a $60 scope, I suppose is actually pretty good. But the image is noticeable chromatic aberrations at high magnification. Personally, if your budget is $60, I’d recommend saving a bit more and buying an Orion or GoSky.
