Product description

Vanguard Endeavor HD 82
Endeavor HD Spotting Scope is the most advanced piece of optical equipment Vanguard has ever produced. The optical system employs extra-low dispersion glass (ED) to ensure accurate color rendition and virtually eliminate color fringing. The lenses are all fully multi-coated to ensure optimum light transmission and feature a phase-coated BAK4 roof prism. Endeavor 82 comes with an 82mm objective lens and eyepiece with 20-60x zoom magnification. It features an extendable rubber covered eyecup and boasts impressive eye relief even at the highest zoom settings. It also provides a very impressive field of view. A built-in sunshield is included to eliminate glare in direct sunlight and it includes a padded raincoat with sling for carry and protection. Endeavor HD is also equipped with fine and coarse focusing wheels for quick and precision fine tuning adjustments. The Endeavor HD mounts directly to Vanguard tripod heads (and others) that are equipped with the universal mounting plate without the use of a quick shoe.

Some remarks

Review by K. K. on 18.05.2022 10:07:11

( 4 / 5 )

I bought this telescope in the winter and now in the spring I have gained some user experience from it. The overall rating is "good" but some problem points can be found in the device.

At low magnifications (20 to 40x) the image is clear and detailed. At higher magnifications (40 to 60 x), focusing on the image becomes a problem. The image cannot be sharpened very easily even in good lighting conditions (sunshine). At absolutely extreme magnification (60x), it even works perfectly.

Another problem is related to focus. The eyepiece is not parfocal, that is, after each zoom setting you have to refocus the image. I would see that there should be no such basic flaws in the price of this that are common on devices under € 200.

Unless you need absolutely extreme magnifications, the telescope is absolutely valid, the picture quality is even excellent at 20x magnification.
