All scopes have the same general parts being an eyepiece, objective lens and focussing wheel.

How the eyepiece fits to the scope body gives rise to their description as either straight or angled scopes. The straight eyepiece variety are common and often easier to use because the eyepiece is in line with the body of the scope and pointing in the direction that you are looking. Straight scopes are best suited to observing birds that are at or below eye level. The angled eyepieces are fitted at 45° to the body. Angled scopes are best suited for observing birds that are high up, for example in trees or in flight. Because of the magnifications you will be using you will need to mount your scope on aa tripod or find some other means of keeping it steady.

The clarity of the image is dependent on the size of the objective lens. The bigger the lens, the more light is gathered and the better the image, but also the heavier and bulkier the scope.

The eyepiece sets the magnification. As with binoculars, a high magnification is not necessarily the best, because high magnification decreases the field of view, which makes targeting more difficult, decreases image brightness, decreases steadiness, and heat haze can become a problem. Common magnifications are 25x to 32x. Scopes also come with zoom eyepieces. other extras allow for digiscoping by allowing you to connect your camera onto the eyepiece so you can photograph what you see.
