Telescope or spotting scope? That's the question..

Do you have a fantastic view from your home that you want to be able to enjoy in more detail? Are you looking for a sports optic that will help you do just that? Well, you're not the only one!

One of our most popular inquiries is from people who live in Wellington, Napier and Nelson and want to enjoy the view from their property. They're after a piece of equipment for getting a good look at boats and wildlife on the harbour, but they're not sure what it is exactly that they need. Many have been told that a telescope will do the trick, but at ScopeUout we always recommend a spotting scope for these land viewing activities as they're designed especially for it.

If you're not sure what equipment will best suit your land viewing needs and help you to enjoy the view from your home, then you need to check out our handy buying guide.
