With a BaK4 prism and multiple coatings, the Celestron Outland X 8x42mm Roof Binoculars deliver high-resolution images with excellent color fidelity. They are fog proof and waterproof, so you can take them anywhere without worrying. You can use them for casual birding, nature viewing, or even sporting events.
These optics have a built-in strap, so you won’t have difficulty carrying them around. The objective lens covers are also semi-attached, so you won’t have to worry about losing them. Further, the moisture-resistant neoprene carrying case provides additional protection when your gear is not in use.
These Celestron binoculars are designed with ergonomics in mind. They have a large focus knob so you can adjust the focus smoothly. Thanks to twist-up eyecups, you can get the complete picture without straining your eyes too much.
Even though these binoculars only have 8x power, they are pretty heavy. That means they are relatively difficult to hold steady, so following fast-moving animals can be challenging. They do have a tripod port so you could set up these binoculars in your house for checking out any local nature or for beginner astronomy viewing.
