Great Nocks!
Great Nocks! Crater's on the Moon are very vivid! Glad I treat myself...

Light and portable, great for astronomy especially as a beginners
Bought for use in astronomy. I wanted something portable that I can easily carry around with me. I’m really happy about the field of view they offer. Great if you’re a beginner, or if you just want an easy transportable point and go set-up. I had a lovely view of Venus in Pleiades in April, and you can see Jupiter’s moons. Our moon also looks beautiful. It really depends what you are looking for. If you want to zoom in and see details such as banding on planets, a telescope would be a better purchase. If you just want to see some lovely views of celestial objects, or find your way round the constellations, they are really perfect. Even in light polluted London, there are so many stars to see that you miss with the naked eye. They are really well made and sturdy, and I’m super happy. Just bought a tripod to go with them for added adventures!

I love them for a beginner and also can be used ...
I m a newbie into astronomy and I wanted to start observing the sky and get to know basic constellations and areas to look. I love them for a beginner and also can be used for bird watching and pretty match anything else you like. They are good quality and lightweight.

Great for spotting objects like the Orion nebula, the Pleiades, and even Jupiter's moons.
I've had other benoculars in the past but I find these to bring a great combination of low power, good field of view, and good aperture for the size. They work really well for spotting objects like the Pleiades and Orion's nebula. I was even able to resolve two of Jupiter's moons. Very hard to beat for the price. An excellent tool for getting started with amateur astronomy.

Fantastic
Took them on a walk and saw lots of birds, still trying to get to grips with them at night, though... maybe I'm a better bird watcher than star gazer!

Value for money within limitations
They work well enough, if you are lucky and don't get a pair that need aligning, but they don't focus beyond infinity so short sighted people still need glasses, this is made clear in the guide. Ok for stargazing though, but to be honest you get what you pay for. I obtained better quality though an old pair of 8x30 Carl Zeiss Jena from the 80's than these. If you can afford it go for Nikon or Olympus.

7x50 is the sweet spot for binoculars intended mainly for stargazing. 7x magnification is enough to resolve a lot of double stars, give you easy views of Jupiter's 4 largest moons, to see the major features of our own moon, and (with solar filters) to see sunspots. Anything less and you might not see enough detail to feel satisfied, anything more and you're going to have a hard time holding the binoculars steady enough to enjoy the detail being provided by the magnification. 50mm objective lenses bring in enough light to allow you to get truly grand views of the milky way (if you can get to a dark sky location) and clear resolution of images; of course larger is better but also a lot more expensive and often manufacturers pair the larger objectives with higher magnification which is NOT helpful. The specific optics of these Celestron "Cometron" binoculars have a good field of view so they're great on nights with peak meteor activity or for looking at wide swaths of sky at one time for other reasons. The quality of the optics is quite good with little aberration, decently dark backgrounds, and the two elements are well collimated – very important and not always the case for inexpensive binoculars. For the price these are hard to beat. I bought a pair of Meade binoculars also and while they were pretty good the two optical paths were not collimated at all; which means it was almost impossible to "merge" the two images because the two optical arrays weren't parallel to each other and therefore weren't pointing in exactly the same direction. They're OK for casual terrestrial viewing or as toys for kids but otherwise worthless. These Celestron models, only slightly more expensive, are not only a fantastic value they are among the best low-end hand-held binoculars available, you'd have to pay a hundred dollars more for a significant increase in quality. This isn't a knock on Meade in general, they make great scopes, but the low-end binoculars I've bought from them have some quality-control issues and aren't in any special way better than these Celestron binoculars. These binoculars are easily adjusted for people with different pupillary distance (spacing between the eyes) by just squeezing the scopes together or pulling them apart around the central hinge. Focus is done with a center adjuster and is smooth in both directions. There is a diopter adjustment on one eyepiece (allowing the user to fine-tune the focus should their eyes require different correction). The eyepieces have foldable eyecups so they're easy to use with or without eyeglasses – note that unless you have significant astigmatism it is better to use a telescope or binoculars without your glasses.

We love our pair of these. Will be getting a longer range pair eventually too. Good quality.

The focusser is all-plastic and thereby whobbles a lot. The lenses immediately fog up when using the lens cups. The image does not appear to be very sharp.

Ürün belirtilen tarih aralığında geldi, korunaklı bir şekilde paketlenmiş, satıcıya teşekkür ederim. Henüz mercek ayarlarını tam olarak yapamadım ilk defa dürbün kullanıyorum, ama bu haliyle bile çok beğendim, balkondan çok uzak mesafeleri bile yakın ve net gördüm. Fiyat performans açısından başarılı bir ürün. Tek moralimi bozan ürün bugün elime ulaştı ve bugün fiyatının 400 TL birden düştüğünü görüyorum, açıkçası hoş bir durum olmadı bu.

Ich habe das Cometron als Geschenk gekauft und natürlich gleich erstmal getestet. Man will ja wissen, was man verschenkt. Vor allem, wenn es für ein Kind gedacht ist. Vorweg: Ich besitze ein knapp fünfmal so teures Glas eines anderen Herstellers mit derselben Öffnung und Vergrößerung und habe das einfach mal zum Vergleich herangezogen. Im direkten Vergleich hat das Cometron doch recht gut abgeschnitten. Nur ganz minimal geringerer Kontrast, der Unterschied ist fast nicht zu bemerken, minimal stärkere Reflexe bei direkten Gegenlichtquellen (Straßenlampen, Autoscheinwerfer). Das Sehfeld ist beim Cometron etwas weiter. Auch recht deutliches Kidneybeaning bei zu dichtem Blick in die Okulare im hellen Tageslicht ist gewöhnungsbedürftig. Abhilfe könnten anders designte Augenmuscheln schaffen. Aber wenn man es weiß und den Effekt kennt (Astronomisch Erfahrene kennen das Problem bei lichtstarken Optiken), kann man das durch etwas Übung ausgleichen. Ansonsten überzeugt das optische System auf ganzer Linie. Aber wie geschrieben, das Vergleichsgerät das diese Problemchen nicht hat, stammt aus einer deutlich teureren Preisklasse und ist auch für einen direkten Vergleich eigentlich nicht angebracht. Für seine Preisklasse liefert das Cometron ein ganz fantastisches Ergebnis. Es macht schlicht Spaß und das Bild das mein Exemplar liefert, ist absolut toll. Ja, das Cometron ist Klasse. Es liefert für sich betrachtet ein scharfes, kontrastreiches und helles Bild. Die optischen Achsen sind bei meinem Exemplar auch super justiert. Das Cometron macht einfach Spaß bis weit in die Dämmerung hinein. Am Himmel konnte ich es nur kurz in einer Wolkenlücke am Mond testen. Auch da nichts zu beanstanden. Optisch hat es bestanden. Ohne wenn und aber. Mechanisch... nun ja, die Preisklasse. Also erstmal klappert oder wackelt nichts. Das ist gut. Das Fokussierrad läuft recht leicht. Gut für Kinderhände. Selbst verstellt hat es sich auch nicht. Auch gut. Das Fernglas an sich ist gemessen an meinem Glas aus der anderen Preisklasse recht leicht. Es wird viel Kunststoff verbaut. Auch der Okularträger (die Arme an denen die Okulare befestigt sind) scheint Plastik zu sein. Aber 100% sicher bin ich mir nicht. Das sollte aber kein Problem sein. Man rammt sich ja die Okulare nicht aufs Auge. Die Gummierung des Hauptkörpers ist aufgeklebt und wirkt billig. Man riecht es auch, aber nicht unangenem stark. Es riecht wie frisch gekaufter Kunststoff. ;-) Auch in der Verarbeitung wirkt es so. Aber so lange sich das nicht löst, ist das auf die Preisklasse bezogen akzeptabel. Zumal die verbaute Optik das locker wett macht. Aber insgesamt hat das Gehäuse seine Ecken und Kanten. In der Gehäuseverarbeitung ist definitiv für künftige Modelle viel Luft nach oben. Das wirkt doch etwas plump. Vor allem an den Kanten der Gummierung. Mein Fazit: Wenn ich die Preisklasse zugrunde lege, ist das ein super Fernglas mit sehr brauchbaren optischen Fähigkeiten. Es hat haptisch seine recht deutlichen Ecken und Kanten, vielleicht ist es auch kein Fernglas fürs ganze Leben, aber seinen Job als lichtstarkes 7x50-Fernglas für astronomische Zwecke, aber auch als Alltagsglas für unterwegs erfüllt es voll und ganz. Man kann es getrost kaufen, wenn es um den Nutzwert geht. Ich persönlich mag ja solche Geräte, die auch in den unteren Preisklassen ihren Zweck hundertprozentig erfüllen. Das hat man heutzutage nicht oft. Hier ist das gegeben. Und die Kanten, na ja, das ist damit auch ok.
