The Body: A durable, rubber-armored aluminum housing protects your EclipSmart binocular from damage without weighing you down.

Accessories Included: Carry your EclipSmart binocular with the comfortable included strap. The binocular also includes a protective padded nylon case for storage and transport, and protective eyepiece and objective lens covers. Upcoming Eclipses: 2023 - On October 14, 2023, the famed “Ring of Fire” will encircle a darkened Moon during a spectacular annular eclipse. This phenomenon occurs when the Moon is too far from Earth to cover the Sun completely. The Sun's corona is not visible during an annular eclipse. 2024 - On April 8, 2024, the Moon will completely cover the Sun during an awe-inspiring Total Solar Eclipse. Observers within the path of totality will witness the sun’s dazzling corona, the “diamond ring” effect, and day turn to night.

    A bargain on a compact binocular.

    I have an older Alpen 8x42 binocular that is excellent for its price. So I wanted a compact binocular and saw the design of the Alpen Wings 8x26 and found the best price at Best Buy. It is a very good binocular considering the small diameter of the objective lenses. I doubt that there is anything out there that is better in the compact category for $80.00. I also chose it for the open bridge design.
