Hand held birding telescope.

Posted by mudlady (My Page) on

I don't have binocular vision and can't use binoculars with both eyes. Rather than carry around the extra size and weight of binoculars I would like to buy a good telescope. I want something I can hand hold so please don't suggest a spotting scope. I will use the telescope mostly in my house and yard to better view local birds. Any suggestions?

I have none, but you could google telescope reviews and see what you come up with. This is a really small forum with not much traffic-you might be able to come up with an answer from a busier site-then share with us here. I would like to know too and sure there has been questions like it..

If you just want to use in house and yard to better view local birds. i give some suggestions to you. For the magnifiction, 8x is better than other. And the objective lense should be small than 50mm. so that you can easy to carry. I recently got an 8x32 binoculars for travelling. I got it form Eyeskey store, www.eyeskey.com The quality is very good and their service aslo perfect too.
