Summary: Great for beginners in star glazing
Comment: I'm new to star glazing and I always thought that I should get a telescope in order to see anything up there. But I was wrong. BTW, I also wanted to introduce my 3 yr old kid to this hobby... After doing some research, I decided to buy Celestron SkyMaster 15x70 instead. I was amazed by so many stars I could see through this binocular. The place I live has lots of light pollution, but I can see hundreds more already. I also like the tripod mount a lot. I was able to set up a simple station in my room, point to some interesting places and let my 3 yr old daughter see something. It only took me 10 minutes to setup, with lots of "help" from my daughter. I'm glad that both she and I could use this binocular and explore the great sky.

Summary: sweet deal
Comment: I'v been loking at thies binoculars for some time and this is by far the best deal i'v seen. Orion telescop sell them for over 120$ amazon had them for 74$, I curently use a 8inch dob telescope and sometimes its hard to find the things im looking for but w/ the binoculars it make it easy w/ the big field of view. Andromida is a breez to find. I would recomend this product to any one in to astromony, just keep em in the car for a quick view. thank you so much amazon..... jonathan in ohio

Summary: Amazing clarity - Best bet for amateur astronomer
Comment: I will def. recommend this product. It's been only 4 days, but I really like this thing, it has amazing clarity and not that bulky but for sure you will feel the weight within 10 seconds and thats the only issue.
Still, much better if you will compare to telescope. And again you need to compare the price with bulky telescopes as well. So by all means good enough for amateur astronomer like me.....

Summary: 5 Star Value
Comment: I am very happy with this purchase. The binocs are comfortable to use and adjust and I did not have any collimination issues. The tripod adaptor works well - the cap screws off and the instructions do not tell you this so I have pry scatches on it from failed attempts. There is a lot of light coming into these things but the 15X (as reviewed by others) is hard to stabilize. The tripod does not allow you to really get your eyes up tight to the binocs without shaking. I found that you can hold the binocs while on the tripod and this gives good stability. You do need a tripod about 1' taller than you to look at most overhead objects. Very good for watching elk at dusk, as well.

Summary: fair price
Comment: This binoculars has a fair range, the view is crisp clear, I also have a Bushnell 15x60 that I bouhg at tatget for $59.00 plus tax that are cheaper but @ long range focus is not as good as Celestron 15x70 which has
more room for focus adjustment, a little bulky but I rahter use my Celestron than my Bushnell,for astronomical view are not as good as it should, moon is to bright that I was worry about eye damage, Orion's belt too far and not clear,that's why I gave it 4 stars, I'll use it for short time terrestrial view .
