When there are long distances to scan a high magnification ocular is just right.

The zoom 7-15x35 Nikon's can identify what is it however they are somewhat bulky.

Leupold's 7/12x32 switch powers are excellent however expensive.

The Hensoldt 8x56 Nacht Dialyt's I got over half a century ago are big, heavy and best in some ways.

Each person should look through all of the optics available and pick what's best for their eyes and search.
