Anyone have any experience with Celestron Ultima or Regal spotters? The Ultimas seem to be getting good marks on other forums, but I haven't seen anything on the Regal line. I was wondering if the optics and the rotating mounting ring is worth the price difference.
 
Re: Celestron spotter

I have one of the Ultima 65s and "for the money" it works but I keep the magnification below 30x for clearest picture. I think the Konus in the same price point is a little better glass-wise but the Celestron body seems better made.
 
Re: Celestron spotter

I have a Ultima 80, I think the glass is a little better than the Konus's I have looked thru, but eye relief is much better on the Konus's.

Thanks for the replies. There are almost too many choices, and that's a good thing.
