A really nice little scope. Very well finished and performs wonderfully. The close focus is a little long at about 25 feet, but hard to find much else to fault. The 520mm FL is very handy as it allows a little more power than some of its competitors without needing short focal length eyepieces. Seems to be very well color corrected for the price. It is so compact, especially for a 500mm+ FL, and yet so accomplished. Highly recommended.
