    Product Description

    The Celestron SkyMaster 25x70mm binocular is the ideal choice for amateur astronomers or anyone who observes at great distances. The 70mm objective lenses have excellent light-gathering capabilities, delivering superior low-light performance, even in the dimmest conditions. Choose SkyMaster for dusk, dawn, and nighttime astronomical viewing. Moreover, the prisms inside the binocular are made of high-quality BaK-4 glass so that more light is reflected off their internal faces and passes through to the eye. The multi-coated lenses and BaK-4 prisms maximize light transmission for remarkably bright, highly detailed images. The binocular's durable exterior housing protects your SkyMaster from damage without weighing you down. Viewing through the SkyMaster binoculars is comfortable for eyeglass and non-eyeglass wearers, thanks to the foldable rubber eyecup. The SkyMaster binocular is tripod-adaptable, so you can use the built-in binocular tripod adapter to mount it on any standard photographic tripod or monopod for extended viewing or digiscoping (photography through the eyepiece). Buy with confidence from the world’s No.1 telescope brand and a leading binocular manufacturer, based in California since 1960. You’ll also receive a Limited Lifetime warranty and unlimited access to technical support from our team of US-based experts.

    Excellent binoculars
    I got this one on sale at $70 and I'm very very happy with it. I find the image quality very crispy and pleasant. The attached photo is just a quick shot from my phone while i hold the binoculars with one hand so it doesn't do the justice. If you find it shaky, just hold the binoculars at the front ends instead of near your face. Note that this is a big binoculars so it's a bit heavy.Overall I love it.

    Reviewed in Mexico on January 31, 2023
    Hace falta decirlo, a mi parecer, una excelente relación calidad/precio, vienen cuidados, limpios, las lentes son de excelente calidad, se sienten robustos y cumplen lo que prometen. Sin embargo hay que aclarar, estos binóculares requieren de un tripié, es posible observar con ellos con solo las manos pero pesan bastante y se vuelve cansado, igualmente es necesario mencionar que el aumento (el cual es increíble para observación de astros, la luna, paisajes etc) deja al límite la posibilidad de tener una imágen estable sin tripié. Hace unos días estuve observando el cielo en busca del cometa C/2022 E3 (ZTF), el famoso cometa verde, a pesar de lo tenúe que era y de estar cerca de una ciudad densa logré vislumbrar el manchón verde del cometa, ver nebulosas como orión o conjuntos estelares como las pleyades es increíble, desde que los tengo observo el cielo cada noche (si el clima se presta claro). Algo más, si quieres estos binóculares es posible que estés pensando también en un teléscopio, la realidad es que comprar estos binóculares es una excelente opción, no solo tienen el alcance y la luminosidad suficiente para competir con un telescopio de bajo costo sino que son mucho más económicos (en perspectiva, se requeriría de un telescopio de cielo profundo de al menos 4 mil a 6 mil pesos), son mucho más comodos de transportar por obvias razones y en general, a menos que quieras dedicarte de lleno a la astronomía, unos binoculares como estos son una alternativa más que excelente. Para teminar, dejé un par de fotos, la primera es como se ve con los binoculares y el adaptador para teléfono, la segunda es una toma con un teleobjetivo 300mm.
