Celestron SkyMaster 12x60 Binoculars: High-Powered Viewing for Stargazing and Bird Watching

Bill F.: In my old age with very poor eyesight the old 10 x 50 binoculars were not getting it done. These are a bit large and heavy but once adjusted they work very well for the vision impaired. Very pleased with this purchase, I own other Celestron products and they have all been a quality product.

Poobis: They're good. I'm new to binoculars so I can't really go into detail about things like chromatic aberration and whatnot but I can that they're at least good for amateurs. Focusing is easy and the detail is crisp (in the eye of a beginner). They're quite sturdy and definitely have some weight to them. I recommend a tripod or resting your elbows on a table for stability.

Since these are on the lower price end, I recommend not bumping/hitting them since cheap celestron definitely isn't the sturdiest when it comes to collamination. My pair have taken 2 decent drops but it's probably just luck that they're still collaminated.

Overall, they're good. If they aren't collaminated, just exchange them for another pair.

Michael Matthews: I don't know much about these things, just what I've researched. They seem pretty good for the level of investment I wanted to make. I used them for night sky viewing as well as during the day. The only issue is that when moving my eye around to different parts of the image I would lose part of the image itself, because my eye is close to the edge of the light field, but as long as I look straight ahead it's fine. I haven't had issues with focusing at all. One thing that should be better, however, is the lens caps for the apertures are too lose and they can fall off and the cap for the eyepiece doesn't fit too snug either.

K. R. Yager: excellent for sky watching and bird watching, as long as the birds are not in nearby trees. I noticed that for some reason, the binoculars make the trees look flat , almost like a landscaper trimmed them all. I was looking at trees in a forest and they were thick. So the one in front looked flat, the ones behind that, and so on all looked like props. I noticed if I sort of move my line of vision it somewhat helps to ease that effect, but it was still weird to look at the trees. These are better for distance viewing.

EMANON: I wanted bins I can use when I'm imaging on my telescope and also just general coastal path viewing. These are a great size for me personally, not too heavy to handhold for a few minutes at a time. Or if I want extra stability then I just use a monopod. I really don't find any need for a tripod to keep them steady. Really nice aperture too with the big 60mm lens. No complaints at all, and at the price point of 70 buff, I think they are fairly priced too. Seem good build quality etc also. Well happy, seen a couple of galaxies and nebula already. I wouldn't say they are great for planetary obs, the moon is great to view also.

Kurt H.: Das Celestron Skymaster ist pervekt zum beobachten des Sternenhimmels. Naülich kann man es nicht
gleichsetzen mit einem Reaktor o. einem Reflektorteleskop ! Aber man knn damit sehr gut die Sterne
beobchten.
Das Fernglas eignet sich priema für einsteiger in die Astronomie , oder für all die jenigen die Spass an der
Beobachtung unseres Sternenmimmes haben.

Kushal: Amazing product, good for beginners. It doesn't have variable zoom, which if u think about it, is good for beginners. U only hav to adjust focus. I use it for stargazing and it's good so far. Don't expect this to do the job of a telescope. It's what it is. Definitely buy a tripod as it's heavy. I bought a cheap one and it serves the purpose though a bit irritated sometimes with it.
