Manufacturer Product Description
Whatever your optical needs might be, Celestron has a binocular that's right for you. The brilliance and sharpness of the image you see through a particular binocular or spotting scope is determined by a number of different factors. Magnification, optical coatings, and lens diameter are just a few of the factors influencing how a binocular performs.

However, the single most important criterion in performance will always be the quality of the optics. Celestron delivers optical excellence through careful consideration of quality in the glass and lens coatings used, precision manufacturing processes, and uncompromising quality control.

Customer Reviews

Great, powerfull and compact binoculars for a nice price
I bough these to replace my older Meade and Exakta binoculars which require collimation now (image from 2 lenses don't overlap anymore so all objects appear double). Celestron Outland provides great images during day observations (landscape, birds) and when looking at night sky (nice view of moon, can see more stars and some nebulas).

Pros:
- impressive optics with great clarity
- compact size for its 10x42 magnification and field of view
- long eye relief, good field of view (315 ft at 1000 yds)
- adjustable 2.25"-3.0" distance between eyes, suitable for many face sizes
- eye caps are attached via straps and don't get loose
- focusing wheel adjusts focus at must faster rate than on other binoculars, so only slight turn in wheel is usually enough to set focus and fine adjustment takes just couple seconds
- I've seen these binoculars in a local store where they underwent months/years of wear-n-tear and abuse by testers and they still have nice overall look and lenses still stay aligned so images for both eyes overlap fine for nice 3D picture.

Other:
- 2 sets of straps - one for carrying case and one for binoculars
- small microfiber cleaning cloth included (removes dust and fingerprint smudged)
- soft neoprene carrying case is think but it's just a soft case so I'd not drop binoculars to the bottom of 10+ lbs backpack along with other stuff.

good product, fast shipping, good price
I got this for my boyfriend for a Christmas present.

He seems to like it and will use it a lot during hunting season.

It is a good value being a 10x42 and the comfort grips are 'comfortable'

Great find, high value binocular, bright clear optics.
Really good quality binocular with features found in very expensive models. The eye caps stay attached, via hinged straps. I wear glasses and like the fact the eye cups rotate out of position and don't just fold over. I am very impressed with the clarity of the optics. I also have a pair of Steiner Marine binoculars for use while we're sailing. These fill the bill for high quality, toss in the suitcase, keep in the car, use everyday binoculars.
No downsides at all.
