Celestron Spotting scope REGAL M2 16-48x65 ED (44918)

The high-end Regal M2 series spotting scopes are the successors to the Regal F-ED series, offering exceptional image sharpness for both day and night use. These scopes are ideal for birdwatching, nature observation, long-distance viewing, and occasional astronomy.

The Regal M2 series includes premium features typically found in more expensive spotting scopes, such as ED (Extra Low Dispersion) glass for superior image quality. The magnesium alloy housing reduces weight by over 14% compared to previous models, making it lighter and more portable. The improved focusing mechanism features a fine adjustment knob that works twice as fast for precise focusing. These scopes are waterproof and nitrogen-filled to prevent internal fogging and come in a stylish green finish. A soft carrying case is included for easy transport.

In addition to observation, the Regal M2 series is perfect for photography. Attach your DSLR camera using the appropriate T2 ring and the included T2 adapter to transform the spotting scope into a powerful telephoto lens. This makes it an excellent companion for any nature enthusiast.
