Review on 🔭 Celestron SkyMaster 25x70 Binoculars - High Powered Large Aperture Binoculars with 70mm Objective Lens - 25x Magnification - Includes Carrying Case by Virot Nimpoonsri ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

I took it for astronomical observations, although many on the forums write that they say it’s better to take 15x70, but for myself I realized that it depends on what to observe, so I don’t agree. For nebulae, binoculars are still not enough, but for observing planets, the larger the magnification, the better. The only thing - be sure to take a tripod, without it it is very difficult to observe from the hands, everything is shaking very much. An adapter for it is included. Compared to the zoom, it has much more visibility, just the pleiades completely "fit", which would not fit on the zoom with a similar magnification. What I have observed: 1) The moon is clearly visible, separate, relatively small craters are very clearly visible. 2) Jupiter - in the form of a small circle, and 4 satellites are clearly distinguishable. 3) The Orion Nebula is visible, but so far the dark sky is not enough. 4) The Pleiades - here unconditionally perfectly visible.

Pros
  • Relatively fast aperture (which is good for astronomical observations), powerful magnification. Tripod adapter included.
Cons
  • Not really a drawback - without a tripod, very strong shaking, due to the strong increase.
