The optical assembly of a typical spotting scopes consists of a small refracting objective lens, an image erecting system that uses either image erecting relay lenses or prisms,[1] and an eyepiece that is usually removable/interchangeable to give different magnifications. Other telescope designs are also used such as Schmidt and Maksutov optical assemblies. They may also feature a ruggedised design, a convenient mounting for attaching to a tripod, and an ergonomically designed and located knob for focus control. Eyepieces are usually interchangeable to give different magnifications, or may consist of a single variable "zoom" eyepiece to give a range of magnifications. Magnifications of less than 20X are unusual, as are magnifications of more than 60X since it can lead to poorer image brightness, a narrow field of view, and show too much image shake, even on a tripod. The eyepiece mount layout can be "straight-through" (the eyepiece is on the same axis as the body of the scope), or "angled" (the eyepiece is at an angle of about 45 degrees to the body of the scope). The light-gathering power and resolution of a spotting scope is determined by the diameter of the objective lens, typically between 50 and 80 mm. The larger the objective, the more massive (and expensive) the telescope, so size is usually fitted to the task being performed. A 100mm spotting scope with a coaxial 30mm finderscope.
