The Orion Giant View 15x70 Astronomy Binoculars provides bright, high magnification views. Fully multi-coated optics provide exceptional light gathering for stargazing. Also good for long-distance terrestrial viewing with stunning resolution.
This binocular is easily the best I have ever owned! When I received them, I was very happily surprised with the small briefcase it comes in, very sturdy build. Upon examination, I was immediately impressed with the construction of the binocular as it has absolutely no play or torsion in the bridge or tubes. I couldn't wait to take it outside and look up, but the weather wouldn't cooperate for a while. Last night, the sky finally cleared, and I went out to the darkest place I could find (kind of hard to do around here). After letting the binocular adjust to the cooler temperature, I picked out Mars and decided to have a look. All I have to say is WOW. I have never seen Mars that clearly and with no distortion with any binocular! I immediately tracked west and found the Beehive Cluster, spectacular even with the waxing gibbous Moon high in the sky. This binocular is excellent for cluster-hunting, and I was even able to track several satellites with ease during my two-hour jaunt. Perhaps on a darker night I'll be able to spot some galaxies or some of the brighter nebulae! Thanks Orion!
