EDIT: The binoculars are multi-coated, and not fully multi-coated.

Hey, Shashank! Thanks so much for this review. I've been looking for a binocular for a few months now and I, finally got to make a decision after watching this video! I'm gonna get one of those for me. Best regards from Brazil!
Thank you, happy to hear you found the review useful. Best of luck with your new set, Happy Birding :)
One of the best reviews I've ever seen! Incredibly informative, and from a tour guide point of view! I always like seeing that, because everyone knows you can't afford to have tourist gear fail on you. Your guests are lucky.
Thank you so much for the appreciation and kind words :)
Great review
Thank you :)
Thank you very much ,helped me a lot to choose .
Our pleasure :)
Crisp to the details, thumps UP !!
Thank you!
Thx for this insightful video Shashank. For a newbie who is buying his first binoculars it was much needed. I have zeroed down to Celestron Outland X 10x42 but unfortunately I can't find it at any of the offline stores in Bombay to try and feel them. Should I take a leap of faith & buy them directly? I need it for birdwatching purposes at National Parks in the US. And would buying from US in that case make more sense?
You can certainly buy the Celestron Outland X online, just be sure to check the product thoroughly once received so there are no lens alignment issues. You will actually have greater choice in the USA, and at good prices, so I will suggest to buy in the USA if more of your use is going to be there.
Good evening, sir! Thank you so much for reviewing the binoculars! I ordered myself from aliexpress exactly the same model Celestron-8x25! Sir please tell me how the image quality is(in the center and at the edge of the field of view)--the picture is not soapy around the edge or a little? Thanks!
Hi, have not reviewed the 8x25. Have experience with the 8x42 and 10x42.
The swarovski EL 8.5 x 42 is a beast for bird watching. Thats the benchmark :) Having said that, my wife uses a celestron 8 x 25 for casual nature viewing while on safari and she is really happy with it.
Swarovski optics are an absolute dream buy for any passionate birdwatcher and you can scarcely get a better experience viewing birds, however they are quite a bit heavy on the wallet 😀 And yes, the Celestron 8X25 is a good all-purpose travel binocular, happy to hear your wife has a good experience using them!
@@ShashankBirla I've recently also bought a compact 10x26 bresser pirsch as I didnt want to carry my Swaro ELs into the national parks for safari (heavy and red dust), do check out the bresser pirsch series. Personally I rate this compact better than my wife's celestron outland pocket i mentioned above and it is available in Delhi. I didnt have it imported like my swaro or my hawke compact spotting scopes..
@@subhrobhattacharya1077 Fantastic to hear you have got Bresser-Pirsch binoculars, again an excellent brand providing great optics. Not surprised they are outperforming the Celestron outland pocket, as I believe the compact Bresser-Pirsch would have higher specifications (including coating) compared to the Celestron Outland Pocket, and may be a bit higher in price as well. Great choice and Happy Birding!
Hello, the comparison is great, I bought a 10x42 green Outland from Amazon in 2016, now I bought it from Aliexpress, it looks the same, but there is no popping sound when I turn the eyes and lift it up! What do you think? Is the green Outland 10x42 I bought from Aliexpress fake???
Hello Shashank, suppose you have family in the USA, what binoculars would you suggest to buy from there? 10k to 20k price range. Thanks in advance.
Hi Arjun, would suggest the Vortex Diamondback HD 8x42 if you can get it.
@@ShashankBirla Thanks again!
I bought these on prime day for around $66. I kind of wanted the 8x42 because I do backyard birdwatching but those weren’t on sale. Hope the 10x42 isn’t overkill.
Nice, yes, the 10x42 is fine as well. Happy birding :)
Sir is SOLOGNAC wildlife binoculars 500 8x42 is best for bird watching?
The best is in the eye of the beholder :) The Solognac 500 8x42 binoculars are a good value buy and quite popular in India, most birders find it a good budget roof-prism binocular to start with. Personally, haven't used them much so can't comment on how their field performance.
Great review! I want to buy one, but I'm not sure if they are MC or FMC! Do you have this info? I saw that you said that they are FMC! Thanks ^^
Hi, thank youu! Yes, we have pinned the clarification below, the binoculars are MC, not FMC.
@@ShashankBirla Thanks for the answer! Do you recommend this binoculars for $50 dollars? I saw one comment saying they have a yellowish color on the edges. Is it true? Thanks bro
I'm gonna buy new binoculars today and I'm confused between celestron outland× and bresser wave, what will you suggest?
If available at the same cost, the Bresser Wave may be a better option as some of the specs are better.
Mr Shashank, could you please tell me what is the diffenet between Celestron OutlandX 10X42 Green and Black?
@@ceylontimetraveller Hi, I seem some minor differences in the specifications. The above review is for the Celestron Outland X black, have not used the Green so will not be able to comment on the same.
@@ShashankBirla Thanks a lot
Pentax SD 8X42 WP is available in India on Amazon. What's your review on this binoculars? Thanks in advance.
Hi Arjun, though Pentax is a well-known brand in optics, I have not had an opportunity to test this model. Also, the price seems to be higher than the starting range of roof prism binoculars so might not be a fair comparison with the Celestron Outland X series which is more of a budget range :)
How to photo from celestron like we saw in celestron🙏
Witam mam osobiście outland 8x42 polecam. A co sondzisz o celestron landscout 10x50?
Witam, Celestron Landscout nie jest łatwo dostępny w Indiach, stąd nie udało mi się go przetestować (mam nadzieję, że tłumaczenie jest prawidłowe :))
@@ShashankBirla Tłumaczenie super pozdrawiam👊😁
How much resolution will they provide
s
SD or HD
Please tell?
SD and HD are terms which are not clearly defined for binoculars (various manufacturers have a different interpretation of HD). Typically, the use of terms is more in electronics that offer video resolution (Full HD is the equivalent of 1080p). For binoculars, it is advisable to check the type of glass and coating to define the quality of image you can get while viewing through the binoculars.
EDIT: The binoculars are multi-coated, and not fully multi-coated.

Please suggest me a best binocular under 25k budget for bird watching.
Hello, you can check this one, this is a good buy in this range: amzn.to/3s6t5yB
I think Nikon Aculon 8X42 is better. However bro im proud to have an Indian person sharing precise info on youtube. Its easier because we have some level of familiarity in terms of binos available here..so its easier to relate. 👍
Thank you, happy to hear you enjoyed the video :)
And sir last question even if we look at sun from binoculars even for 1 second still it can damage our eyes
A second or so will not cause any lasting harm, but recommended to avoid any direct view of the sun through binoculars.
Sir i have purchased solognac 10x42 binoculars 100 for 6999 please tell me is it a good choice is it better than nikon ACULON A211 10x50 i chose solognac binoculars because they are waterproof and no other brand was offering waterproof binoculars soooo at this price i done lots of research for binoculars and decided to go for this solognac binoculars please tell me is it a right choice
It is a good budget buy, not many roof-prism binoculars in that price range. I have not personally used them, but have friends who have, and they have mentioned they are satisfied with the results for the price. As shared, because I haven't used the Solognac binoculars, can't compare to Nikon Aculon A211, which are quite popular and are a very good buy in the porro prism design.
@@ShashankBirla sir its my request to u please if possible make videos on all brands of binoculars unboxing reviews etc because there are not many channels that give detailed videos of this binoculars so please make it and if possible make a detailed video of solognac 10x42 binoculars
And also tell me even a single droplet of water can damage a non waterproof binoculars and also a small fall can damage it are binoculars sooo fragile please tell and also what to do to ensure long life of any binoculars give ur expert advice
And also tell me is my choice binoculars are best for 7000 budget or u recommend me to another brand if so please tell and my budget is 7000 max
@@pranavkulkarni7644 Will do my best, Pranav. I hope to do reviews of more binoculars as well.
