The Hawke Endurance 12-36×50 spotting scope is a great example, as with many of the latest spotting scopes, you do not need a large aperture to get a bright image. Fully multi-coated optics with Dielectric BaK-4 prism gives outstanding performance across the range.
This was confirmed with this delightful little spotter getting the best compact travel scope award in the 2016 best binocular awards.
