Product Description Celestron's Ultima 80ED spotting scope is a high performance model that features cutting edge optics with extra low dispersion glass (ED). ED glass provides excellent color correction and razor sharp images for serious nature and bird watchers. ED version models are also ideal for virtually eliminating chromatic aberration usually seen during planetary and lunar viewing. Day or night, this scope is optimized to provide the sharpest images available. Model also features charcoal color rubber textured paint for secure grip.

Celestron 52251 Ultima 80ED Spotting Scope October 19, 2007 Ron Turney (Ontario, NY United States) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I bought the Ultima 80ED spotting scope for a trip to Yellowstone this fall. Both my wife and I are glad we had it along. It offered nice crisp views of grizzlies, pronghorn, and bald eagles. This is my first spotting scope so I don't have anything to compare it to but it seemed to perform very well for a medium priced scope. I paid about $400 for it. People that we let take a look though it were also impressed. In fact one comment was "we gotta get one of these". This is not my first Celestron product. I also have one of their 8" SC telescopes. My only beef about the Ultima 80ED is that there is NO eyepiece cover. Come on Celestron, I think you've been at this optics game long enough to know to include a 2-cent piece of plastic on a scope that lists for $870.
