With a host of great improvements upon an already-beloved scope (the Fieldscope III ED), the Nikon Fieldscope 65mm EDG is a streamlined, cutting-edge spotting scope for the most demanding of birders, hunters, and nature enthusiasts. It is a scope that can accompany you upon an arduous, all-day hike without weighing you down, and will provide you with incredible images to both observe and/or capture with a digital camera through nearly any lighting conditions.
In creating the 65mm EDG, Nikon employed all of the optical improvements found in the incredible EDG binoculars. As great as the Fieldscope III was, and remains, the EDG is indeed that bit brighter, whiter, and of higher edge contrast when compared directly.
The Fieldscope 65mm EDG is produced in both a straight and an angled viewing version, and which you choose should depend upon your observing tendencies. Most would agree that angled scopes are more comfortable for extended observing sessions, and that using the angled scope is significantly easier when sharing amongst multiple observers of varied heights. They do require more experience to quickly locate subjects, and are also a hair taller, longer, and heavier.
The Nikon Fieldscope EDG arrives to you with a Vue-Thru case with strap, a valuable accessory quite nearly a necessity, as well as a premium 16-48x zoom eyepiece.
