I am using an 85mm objective lens but will buy a 65mm for more mobile hunting.
There are certainly spotters that will do the job for less cash.

Nice bit of kit, very envious but equally happy not to have to carry that up a hill.



Would love to go down that route as like you I find it difficult to spend too long using one eye.

Question for you please @Southcity - what are you using for a tripod?
