Product Information

And next to my much higher quality 8x42 bins, I have to report I see more, and more clearly, with the 8x42s. The magnification factor, also known as "power", is listed as the first number given in a binocular's name, like 7 x 50, 8 x 40, etc.

The Pleiades (Seven Sisters) were also pleasing to look at and the field of view is wide enough to find such celestial objects easily.

Great value for an excellent pair of low-light-friendly binoculars with fantastic specs and a quality design. For a more compact pair of more generalist binoculars, consider the Celestron TrailSeeker 8x42 which we reviewed.

This award-winning optical system reduces visual defects like field curvature and coma, creating an ultra-flat field for pinpoint stars all the way to the edge of today’s largest imaging sensors. Now, Celestron is using that same technology to allow star gazers to connect to the night sky and enhance their experience of the cosmos in fun and unique ways.Unlike traditional telescopes, the RASA design ingeniously places the imaging sensor at the front of the telescope tube, creating an ultra-fast f/2. Most users prefer a wider field of view; it is especially helpful when observing moving objects, like when you're at a football game or riding in a boat or car. They boast high-quality optics with multi-coated lenses and BaK-4 glass prisms to provide clear and bright views.
