I’m after some opinions with comparing some 15 power high end binoculars, spotting scope or a camera like a p900, fz80,sx70 or rx 10iv camera to spot sambar while backpack hunting.
I currently have a pair of Leica trinovids 8x42 that I use for my day to day stalking.
For those that glass a lot with a mate/group with different equipment or have tried different gear over the years what would you say spots the most deer? 8x binos, 15x binos or a spotter/high zoom camera while out in the alpine country.
Are spotting scopes more for 1km+? And are they mainly used to scan around the deer you find out in the open, hoping to find the stag near by?
Just wondering if the 8x binos can be the main tool and the occasional scan with the 60x optical zoom camera, to save battery
Cheers
