The Ultima 20-60x80mm features a 45° viewing angle and offers a step up in aperture from the 65mm, offering 50% brighter images. The 80mm refractor features excellent multi-coated optics packed into a portable and durable refractor design and it comes standard with a 20-60x zoom eyepiece.
This series was designed to perform well in a range of viewing situations, making it a great all-around optical instrument. You’ll love it for observing nature and long distance spotting and since it is completely waterproof you can feel comfortable using it in extreme weather. The green rubber optical tube allows for subtle observation in any nature environment. Ultima spotters are a great companion for any nature or outdoor enthusiast. Soft carrying case included.
I would give this a 90/100. The fit, finish, weight and functions are all top notch. The focus does a great job all the way to 60X which is rare. Good for terrestrial as well as astronomical use. One minor ding, and was the same with my 60mm version of this same model. At advanced magnification, it seems that there is some minor spec or something on the mirrors (?) that causes a small section of the image to be not in focus. Anyone know how to rectify this, let me know! But quite pleased over all and appreciated Nicholas, the new proprietor of All-Star.
