Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Celestron SkyMaster 20x80 Binoculars
Customer Review: Clarity is wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars
Believe what you hear about these being heavy. After picking these things up I regretted not budgeting in some more play money so that I could buy the stand. Don't let the name of the account throw you off, it's my wife's account. I go to the gym regularly, have 17 1/2 inch biceps and still start shaking a bit after holding these gigantic things for a couple of minutes. But you know how it goes, if you want quality it should be heavy. It's nice that you can focus the right and left eye separately to get the clarity you desire. On a bad night where there were only a few stars out I decided to take a look at them anyways. The sky exploded with stars! I couldn't even recognize where the Little Dipper began and where it ended because of all the stars that were surrounding it. Will you see the rings of Saturn? No, but these will give you an experience that is unachievable with the naked eye. Regarding the Moon. I could see all of the craters, the shadows inside the craters, the small mountains. It's a very pleasant experience using these. I live in Orlando, not the darkest of places to live. Day time use is good too. I like to watch planes. Where as they would look like a speck most of the time, you can actually see the passenger windows. No passengers though, they don't get that close. ;) I'm sure if you want to drain the bank account there is better stuff out there. But for someone who just wants to get a closer look at outer space, I highly recommend buying these. They are affordable, durable, and a lot of fun to use, minus the weight of course.
Description of Celestron SkyMaster 20x80 Binoculars
The Celestron® SkyMaster? large-aperture binoculars are ideal for astronomical viewing or for terrestrial (land) use, especially over long distances. They feature high-quality BAK-4 prisms and multi-coated optics for enhanced contrast.

Featuring high quality BAK-4 prisms, multi-coated optics for enhanced contrast, a diopter adjustment for fine focusing, and large apertures, these binoculars offer phenomenal performance.
The Celestron 71018 features a 20x magnification and an objective lens diameter of 80 millimeters, giving it a 4-millimeter exit pupil. (The exit pupil size -- the diameter of the objective lens divided by the magnification -- determines the amount of light available to your eye. The larger the exit pupil, the brighter the image obtained will be. A three-millimeter exit pupil is generally sufficient for daytime use, five-millimeters is suitable for daytime and twilight, and seven-millimeters is generally necessary for maximum nighttime or astronomy use.) The Celestron 71018 also includes an integrated tripod adapter rod, a deluxe padded soft carrying case, and Celestron's No Fault Limited Lifetime Warranty.
