Celestron Regal M2.
The Celestron Regal M2 20-60x80ED Angled Spotting Scope, previously known as the Celestron Regal 80 F-ED, is a popular model from the Regal M2 series. The Celestron spotting scope is designed to provide the sharpest images available. The Regal 80 model incorporates ED glass to deliver sharp, crisp images. This is combined with XLT fully multi-coated optics, an improved dual-focus mechanism, and a lightweight magnesium alloy body. This entire Celestron Regal package is also fully waterproof and nitrogen-purged.
The Regal M series also accepts standard 1.25″ telescope eyepieces, which makes this an excellent land telescope option for occasional beginner stargazing, offering performance not typically found in traditional telescopes.
