About the only decent buys that I made my friend. I used to be very seriously into photography and and I must have over £8000.00 worth of digital cameras, both Nikon and Canon, that are not worth the postage if anyone ever bought them for fun. I 'd probably get my money back on the Leicas. Lovely stuff to work with particularly my old M3.Originally Posted by rabbitwrecker

As an aside , Leica have been manufacturing microscopes in china for few years to compete in the bottom end of the market. Quality looks ok on the outside. But not a patch on the old stuff inside.
High end scopes not only have good glass, but also fine build tolerances internally for accurate adjustment.

Exceedingly Good Bloke
I was on the Highland Outdoor stand at the shooting show and couldn't believe how good the Nikko Sterling were.
If they can be that good for a budget then the top drawer stuff should be amazing

You need to look through the scope in poor light or at dusk to assess the quality of the glass.

The lens quality of the scope should be judged while in action under challenging lighting conditions. The other part of the highend scopes is the mechanics that are way better than the cheap China made stuff. Tracking ability of the turrets is another.I was on the Highland Outdoor stand at the shooting show and couldn't believe how good the Nikko Sterling were.
