Review: Clear, quality optics, great price. Compare well to others costing far more - I am a beginner birder. Two years ago, I bought a higher-end pair of Monarchs for my wife. When we started comparing these to hers, we were very favorably impressed. These are high quality: great lenses, easy to focus and solid. There are no problems with stability, they are easy to use. Great for birding. The attached lens covers are a plus - otherwise I'm sure I'd lose them. As many have stated in other reviews, these are surprising for their price point and compare well to binoculars costing more than two times as much.
Review: Surprisingly good - These are REALLY good binoculars - even if they cost 2x as much. Clear, easy to focus, good with glasses. I've tried name brands and other non-name brands (aka - cheap) and these are clearly on the higher end.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much is the zoom difference between 10x42 and 12x50?**
A: In a binocular power rating (e.g. 10x42) the first number is magnification. The second number is the diameter of the objective lens (large lenses at the opposite end from the eyepiece lenses), in this case 42 millimeters. Hence, 10x42. The magnification power of a 12x50 is 12 times magnification (12 times larger than normal unaided vision). So the "zoom difference" would be an increase of 20% in the magnification from a 10x42 to a 12x50.The objective lens diameter determines light gathering capability and the size of the field of view. A higher magnification is not necessarily a good thing, as it is more difficult to maintain a stationary image, the light gathering capability is often impaired, and the field of view is reduced. For most uses, a binocular of 7 or 8 power is about right. 10 power is good for people with steady hands, and 12 power often requires a tripod to hold a stable image.

**Q: We are going whale watching, which would be better 8 X 42 or 10 X 42?**
A: I own Celestron 18-40X80MM for the sky view and Canon 12X36 IS III for wild nature. Based on the experience and knowledge I have, using those 2 binoculars, I can tell you that higher a binoculars’ viewing power is, more details but less content on the view you will see, whereas weaker/lower viewing power a binoculars is, less details but more content you will see. Also higher viewing power helps you see things far away whereas lower viewing power helps you see things less far away.

The above said is not all that should be taken into consideration. The other factor is stability that must be well considered because the view through the binoculars does shake/wobbles. With higher viewing power ones, the view is more unstable when held by hands, whereas, with lower/weaker viewing power ones, the view is more stable when held by hands. That’s why my Celestron 18-40X80MM is useless when held by hands because the view shakes and it makes my eyes very uncomfortable. Imagine you hold a level tool in your hands. Your hands shake and you can’t keep it still. You won’t be able to keep your hands steady holding a high-powered viewing binoculars in hands. That’s why I bought a tripod.

Taking these two binoculars into comparison, I’d go with 8 simply because the view would be more stable. Staying on a boat in the water, the stability wouldn’t be ideal.

(Hope it helps assuming you haven’t watched the whales yet.😄)

**Q: they are good to take them to a music concert?**
A: Would be yes. They aren't that heavy.

**Q: Recommended by manufacturer for stargazing binoculars, the Skymaster ED pro 7x50. Is this a good size to put in my luggage to travel?**
A: The Skymaster Pro ED 7x50 is not an outsized instrument and should travel well. The dimensions are 180mm x 198mm x 64mm (7.1" x 7.8" x 2.5") and the binoculars have a nylon carrying case.

These are REALLY good binoculars - even if they cost 2x as much. Clear, easy to focus, good with glasses. I've tried name brands and other non-name brands (aka - cheap) and these are clearly on the higher end.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It would be hard to find a pair of decent binoculars to match these for the price.
*by R***R on December 10, 2014*

I bought these Celestron Outland X 8x42 binoculars for my grandson but tried them out first, comparing them to my Vortex Fury 8x42's, which cost about 4 times more. For the price, the Celestron pair is a good deal. If you are an experienced birder you may not want these as your go-to binoculars, but they would be good as a second pair. The optics seem good, the field of view is good, close focus is good at about 8 feet and eye relief is good at 18mm, allowing eyeglasses to be used without loss of view. They are light and feel well made. The adjustable eye cups work fine. On the negative side, they aren't as bright as more expensive optics, the focus knob is a bit slow to turn and you just don't get that "Wow" feeling the first time you try them on. But like I said, for the money they are worth it. I have seen more expensive binoculars that aren't this good. You certainly won't be disappointed or embarrassed when birding with your buddies if you take these along.
