Great binos for Alaska cruise
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought two pairs of these to take on an Alaska cruise. Glad I did! Image quality is great, with good field of view. A little heavy, but that is to be expected. We were able to spot several whales breaching in the ocean that we would not have seen without these

Celestron waterproof binoculars
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these binoculars to take a on a canoeing trip to Boundary Waters in Northen Minnesota summer 2020 to get a better view of wildlife (and when we were hunting for the next available campsite). These kept our crew from paddling to a campsite that was far away and already occupied more than once and gave us clear views of far away bald eagles, loons and beavers (no bears or moose unfortunately).

Q: QuestionAre these good for bird watching?
Asked by tlbhugs.
- A:Answer With a close focus of 6.5 feet and being waterproof by design, the Nature DX 10x42 are excellent for bird watching. Please note that binoculars with magnifications higher than about 7 are difficult to hold steady by hand and will require a monopod or lightweight tripod for image stability.

Q: QuestionWhat binoculars do you recommend for a cruise and to be used to take pictures with my phone?
Asked by JayAre.
- A:Answer Binoculars for travel and binoculars used for stationary nature or astronomy viewing fall under two different parameters. A travel binocular must be small and light, yet perform well, while a stationary binocular can be larger for better low light gathering and can be mounted on a tripod. For traveling, the Nature DX 10x42 is a great choice. But for photography with a cellphone, the binocular should be tripod-mounted in order to conveniently operate the camera. Thus, a binocular to tripod adapter is highly recommended along with the NexYZ three axis adjustable cellphone adapter.

Q: Questionwhat are good binoculars for planet gazing?
Asked by stu.
- A:Answer Binoculars, and particularly only 8X binoculars, are too low magnification to show a planet as more than a pinpoint of light. A telescope with at least 50X minimum is needed to discern the ball of a large planet like Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn.
