Bandwidth is software upgradeable, however I doubt that this makes any sense, for this or any other scope. You're really much better off by buying the bandwidth you need in the foreseeable future now, and when you find you need more then sell the old scope and buy a new one with the better bandwidth.
Again, here you go veering off track with your absolutist statements.
It seems someone is out for trolling again.
Are you aware not everyone has the same use case? How about that fact that in some instances the scope+bandwidth upgrade is no more than, and in some cases less than the scope with higher bandwidth preinstalled?
I guess you're right if your "use case" (a term you don't seem to understand, really) involves spending as much money as possible.
I agree that in some cases it can be cheaper to buy a lower bw scope plus a bw upgrade instead of the higher bw model. But that's because when bought together with the scope the bw upgrades are normally much cheaper than bought later.
But that doesn't change the fact that buying a lower bw scope now and planing to bw upgrade say one or two years down the line is rarely economical, as the upgrade will very likely be much more than the difference between the amount you'd get for selling your old scope and buying the higher bw model instead. Of course you might get lucky and the bw upgrade will be dirt cheap, but everyone who knows T&M companies knows that this is unlikely.
Of course you're absolutely free to ignore my advice and gamble on the upgrade being cheaper down the line, and frankly, I can't care less if you do. It's your choice.
Everyone is not you, and it's notable that you give strident and arrogant advice, without ever asking what the scope will be used for.
Yeah, whatever.
If you don't like what I write or my advice then ignore me, simple as that. A five year old would be capable of that but obviously not you as you're clearly out to troll. Of course you could try to counter my points if you can argue why my advice is wrong (that's called a "discussion" btw) but I can clearly see that's beyond you. It's clear you can't even get the basics right
On the other side I have to say I somehow feel honored having attracted my personal troll, even though you're pretty much below the minimum intellectual standard I expect from my trolls. That means because of sloppy work like not checking basic facts before attacking you only get a
Good luck next time!
