Ideal for viewing whole constellations

Review by M. B. on 08.12.2015 22:23:08

( 5 / 5 )

I purchased a pair of these binoculars about 6 months ago and can recommend them for wide field viewing with the extra light gathered being very helpful for seeing star colours.

At the moment Orion is nicely placed and fits nicely within the field of view wirh at least 30 stars being visible within the boundaries of the main stars of the constellation.

The binoculars are very compact and can also be useful for general daytime use. If your long range eyesight is not as good as it once was then these binoculars are to be recommended.

Excellent wide-angle views of the sky and the constellations

These handy binoculars provide excellent views of whole constellations including star colours and can also be used for terrestrial observing.

Optical and build quality seems very good and the 42mm lenses gather a lot of light allowing good appreciation of star colours and magnitude.

The binoculars are very compact and come in a handy pouch case which is small enough to fit in a pocket together with a neck/wrist strap. The case also has loops for carrying or fastening on a belt.

These binoculars are not for everybody or for general purpose use due to their cost; but if your long range eyesight is not as good as it could be and you wish to get nice clear views of large patches of the sky then these could be for you.

The ordering and delivery service from Astroshop.eu was first class and the total time required from ordering to delivery to the far reaches of southern hemisphere was less than four days. This included processing an emailed amendment to the original order which was intelligently dealt with unlike some of the box-shifting-only sites.
