Thread: Bridge Camera vs Spotting Scope

Hi

I’ve done lots of Thar hunting in the 90s and early 2000s. Less lately with kids and work. In the past I had invested in good Swarovski Binos and if I saw a decent bull would climb up for a closer look. These days the last few trips I’ve been on numbers are way up from the past and longer shooting means better trophy evaluation is important to save the legs and avoid taking a smaller bull

So before investing in an expensive spotter is anyone using a superzoom bridge camera. Something like the Panasonic FZ80 is under $500 and pretty good optically plus can do HD video etc. I know it won’t be weatherproof but i still always have my Binos.

Any opinions?
