Style: 52306 Regal M2 100ED
Configuration: Spotting Scope
When I received the scope, I mounted it on my tripod right away, attached the body of my Nikon digital D7500 SLR on it, and started taking pictures. The images were sharp even at maximum zoom. However, I soon started noticing some fringing around the edge of objects in the pictures. I thought it was because of focusing problems with my camera, and went to make some manual adjustments. That was when I noticed some wiggling of the camera, even though it felt solidly attached when I first put it on. I was letting go of the camera when suddenly, the eyepiece detached from the scope body and fell with my attached camera into my hand! After my nerves had settled down, I looked to see what happened. The problem was with the BASEPLATE that is permanently mounted on the scope body, and to which the eyepiece itself screws onto. This baseplate had come loose from the scope body, where it was supposed to be held in place with a screw mount and glue from the inside of the scope. The bottom line is that it was not something that I could easily fix. Thank goodness I bought the scope from Amazon, and was able to return it with a minimum of fuss. However, despite being able to get my money back, I am quite unnerved about what could have happened, and feel obliged to let other people know about this potentially disastrous defect with the scope. I shudder to think what could have happened to my $1700 camera if my hand was not underneath! Celestron should NOT be making a scope where such a calamitous failure can occur. If they can fix this flaw, they will have an excellent scope where you get a lot of bang for the buck. Until then, anyone wishing to buy this scope for use with a camera would be better off looking elsewhere.

Unable to clearly focus beyond minimum maginification. I tested by taping a dollar bill at 100 ft. Unable to read the serial number. My cheapo Bushnell was crystal clear at 60x. I expected better because my CELESTRON GRANITE binoculars are sharp and clear.

Configuration: Spotting Scope
Purchased for spotting rifle targets up to 300 meters and limited digiscoping. Fit and finish are excellent. All controls work smoothly and positively. No chromatic aberration seen during day, desert conditions. Lens cover and eyepiece cover feel robust and attach firmly to the scope to protect the glass. Can see individual leaves on trees over 400 yards away at 60x with no apparent image degradation. Some folks reported problems with the nylon storage bag; however, mine fits perfectly. My only minor gripe is that the zoom function on the eyepiece twists counterclockwise (left relative to the user) to increase, which is counter-intuitive to me. All my other zoom riflescopes and binos twist right/clockwise to increase magnification. Not enough to remove a star, it just threw me the first time I tried to zoom and wondered why the ring wouldn't turn. Still need to try it in overcast, twilight and night conditions, and run a star test to fully evaluate the scope. However, I'm happy with it and confident it will more than meet my needs for a spotting scope.

I bought this for birding, especially to identify ducks at a distance, and it works great for that purpose. I compared it to a much smaller scope, the Vortex Viper HD 65 mm, and the Vortex had a slightly crisper image that was just as bright as that of the larger Celestron, so I kept the Vortex and returned this one. I also prefer the single-stage focus with a large ring on the Vortex, compared to a small two-stage focus knob on the Celestron.

This 65mm scope is good value for the money. I got this mainly so I could have an angled scope when I take groups birding. My straight scope needs too much adjusting with a group. It has ED glass which is a good start. The zoom eye piece is good to 30-35X. I have a Pentax ED scope that does better at 45x. Since they can both use a 1.25 inch astronomy eye piece, I put a Vixen zoom on them, and the Pentax was quite similar in view at 45x to the Celestron. With the Celestron eye piece, the view was breaking up a bit at 45x. (I put the Celestron eye piece on my Pentax as well and it was good to 30x). Look for the Vixen eye piece here, it runs about 200 dollars. I bought one so I have it on both scopes now. Also, the Celestron is rear heavy, so it tips back on the tripod. With the Vixen eye piece it does less of that,

I bought this as an upgrade to a spotting scope I bought several years ago. At the same aperture size the old one would have been about half the price, but it focuses sharper. It's particularly noticeable at full magnification. I just can't get sharp focus with this spotting scope as I increase magnification. I have read varying reviews, so I suspect that quality varies from example to example. Pay more and get less? I decided to return it. Maybe a replacement would have been fine and I have been happy with other products from Celestron.

Great scope! The best part is that you can use your own eye pieces. Doesn't come with a tripod which is a problem. You have to buy a very sturdy one. It has ED glass which makes looking at planets very pleasing. It's an APO telescope but only one single lens so it wont out perform the real expensive triplets or 4 lens ED telescopes however I have been in the Astronomy hobby for 40 plus years and this scope is definitely worth every penny. I use this more than any other of my 15 telescopes ranging from a 10 reflector to my 11 inch SCT.

I could not be happier with this spotting scope. Especially after finding an adapter for my android that allows me to take pictures. I also purchased a celestron regal tripod and it seems like a perfect fit for this scope. I had no previous experience using a spotting scope and am not very knowledgeable in optics. I was relieved at how easy setup and transport of this spotting scope is. The viewing and photo images are great. I have used it primarily for wildlife, ocean viewing, the moon, planets and spotting aircraft that have been working the wildfires in California. One beginner tip...be careful not to adjust tripod on a slope than move to flat area without readjusting legs (just sayin). The images are of the sun and moon on some of the smokier wildfire days.
