Review: Very good binoculars for such a low price - First of all, people need to understand: When ordering binoculars online, especially ones in this range, you are taking the chance you will get a bad pair. Between the factory and the shipping to your door, there's a chance the pair you get WILL BE OUT OF COLLIMATION. This means you will see double and never get a merged focused image. In other words, they'll be useless. If you read through reviews that's the main complaint people have and they conclude the binoculars "just suck". However, it seems the number of bad are outweighed by the number of good ones people received. And desertcart is really good at returns and exchanges, so you really just stand to lose time and convenience having to make the return if they are out of collimation. Having said that... Since my main use is for stargazing I already had gotten the 15x70 SkyMaster, which is also an excellent pair for the price. But because of their size, for hand-held use they can be difficult to use. I can manage pretty well, but my wife definitely had a harder time, so I took a chance with these. Having taken the collimation gamble with the SkyMasters and being a pessimist, I wasn't expecting my luck to be good twice in a row. But these also arrived in collimation and focused just fine. After the relief of that, the second thing I noticed was how much easier they were to hold, and therefore, how much better and stable the image was. Using them at night was just as easy. Between their size and lower magnification I was able to focus in on objects a lot easier than with the SkyMasters. My wife also found them MUCH easier to use. The image is not as close or as bright, but for hand held use the stability of the smaller one wins. However, even though I could see Jupiter and it's moons 'good' with these 10x50's for a longer time, I still switched to the 15x70's for a 'better' but shorter view. That wouldn't be an issue with a good sturdy tripod though and the bigger one would win ~hands down~ (see what I did there?). Like the Skymasters, these came with a thin flimsy soft case, a cheap neckstrap, lens caps, and a tiny microfiber cloth. Unlike the Skymasters, it didn't come with a tripod adapter, which isn't a big deal since most will use them hand-held and the tripod adapter the Skymaster did come with really sucks anyway. It appears to be a well-built pair of binoculars, but that's not saying anything if a good enough bump knocks them out of collimation. Taking that into account, I ditched the flimsy carrying bags for both pairs of binoculars and put them in "Plano Protector Four Pistol" cases. Overkill maybe, but made me feel better. Overall, for $20-30 binoculars, these are really good.
Review: Great binoculars for the price! Cheap in price, but good in quality! - These are very good binoculars that are low in cost, but not low in quality. I've bought many celestron products in the past and celestron provided high quality views in telescopes and binoculars. They are of course manufacturered in china but most mass produced products are. They have great quality! There is only 1 issue I can think of and it's that the alignment knobb tends to get unaligned so it needs to be adjusted often. It's a little con but not much to deter my rating. As long as you don't move that knobb it should be ok. The glass on these binoculars are good they have bak 7 glass. Which means you will see some purple fringes but not much to make it super cheap. I also used the celestron Calvary series and those have bak 4 prisms. Those have higher quality than these, but at a more expense price of 80$ and up! So these are just as good! There great for putting in your car and taking it on the road for trips and sightseeing of birds, or whale watching at the sea, or even in high mountain areas! Overall they provide great celestron quality!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can u see clearly at night, the sky, stars etc**
A: Probably the moon, but the skymaster are more suited for night.

**Q: what does porro mean and what does it do to make these binos better  ?**
A: How Binoculars WorkThere are two basic types of binoculars: porro prisms and roof prisms.1. Porro-prism binocularsPorro-prism binoculars have a right-angled bend between the objective lens and the eyepiece, which makes them form an M shape when standing on their objective lenses. Porros rely on an external focus mechanism, which causes the eyepieces to slide forward or backward along an external tube. This design provides precise focusing and sharp images of close-proximity subjects as near as six to 10 feet.Reasons to buy:Brighter images due to greater transmission of lightFast focusingClose focusingWide field of viewThings to consider:Increased weight from large prismsThe bulky design can make porros harder to hold for those with small handsThe external focusing mechanism is more easily jarred out of alignment2. Roof-prism binocularsRoof-prism binoculars are typically straight with the objective lens in line with the eyepiece. They take on an H shape when stood upright. Most of the focusing hardware is housed inside the binocular, with an external focusing knob or wheel. Recent design advances have enabled roof-prism binoculars to focus as close as, if not closer than, their porro counterparts. Roof-prism binoculars have grown in popularity in the past few decades, primarily because many leading optics manufacturers are producing high-quality roof-prism optics. At the mid- to high-price range, roof-prism binoculars dominate the optics market.Reasons to buy:Ease of handlingClose focusing in advanced modelsIncreased durability from fewer external moving partsBetter power-to-weight ratio-a 10x roof-prism binocular weighs less than a 10x porroThings to consider:More expensive because of the need for special prism coatings to increase image brightness

**Q: How good is the stability of these when hand-held?  I've not used anything over 10x handheld and it seems like it could be pretty shakey...**
A: It's not that good, over time I developed some skills to hold it steady, but it's hard.

**Q: I want to focus on small items 25' away. Things I used to be able to see with my eyes.   Can these focus at 25' away?**
A: Most certainly! You should have absolutely NO issues in viewing objects in that range.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for the price
*by P***N on December 26, 2014*

These are not high end binoculars. The strap and case are cheesy, the front caps fall off and the rear caps are hard to put on. The first time I replaced the rear lens caps I was surprised when the eyepieces moved. The arm that supports them is plastic. The eye relief is not all that great, so when wearing glasses you can't quite see the full field of view even with the eye cups folded down. However, for my purpose they are fine. I have a nice pair of 7x35 binoculars, but I wanted something with larger objective lenses for star gazing. These are great for that. Collimation of mine is spot on and the image is sharp and clear. There is a noticeable improvement in brightness and detail over my other pair. The rubbery covering feels good, and they don't weigh much more than my 7x35. Focusing is nice and smooth. Instead of the case and caps, I keep them in a plastic bag on a shelf. Not fancy, but functional. The strap I can live with. With care, I believe they will last a long time. And, if I drop them, it's not the end of the world. That's nice when you're fumbling around in the dark. I can see why some folks receive damaged binoculars. The manufacturer's box is not designed for shipping. There is just a thin strip of foam in the bottom. Amazon puts it in a larger box with some air bladders to fill up the space. There is no padding around the inner box. So, if it gets tossed around, like many packages do, the binoculars take the full brunt of it. Delicate optical instruments should have foam cushion all around.
