I've got the 20*80 sky masters. Awesome piece of kit. Perfect for seeing nebula and even Jupiter's moons.

Even my 20x80's freaked out my co-worker. I told him that I paid $1800 for them and he said... "yeah, looks like about what I thought." Wow! I told him I paid $129 on Amazon, I love mine and it's tight and crisp. I do wish I had Zoom ability, not just focus.
Dont even think about picking these up.
Also : Lifts them effortlessly off the tripod with one hand

Yeah, there's nothing better in this world, than looking at the sky.
Wouldn't that be considered looking outside this world?

Why don't they adopt the way photographers protect camera lenses? That seems to be the perfect solution instead of flimsy junk like that. Man, don't these companies know that cases and covers are the ultimate way to make a statement about what it's carrying/protecting?
I've done birding with these things before handheld. Takes a stronger set of arms but you do look cool holding them lol
Use with caution as use in some situations may get the police involved, no officer I was looking at a bird in the neighbors bush, I had no idea her bedroom was right behind it.

I have both the 20x80 mm binoculars and the 25x100 binoculars and both are wonderful, but I like the 20x80 mm binoculars best. However, I was able to see the rings of Saturn much better with the larger binoculars. The big ones are huge and hard to steady on any tripod I have tried so far and that makes it difficult to focus precisely, but once set the view is incredible. My 20x80 mm binoculars are easier to focus and are far more stable on my tripod. I use them for gazing at the stars and planets, but they are also fabulous to use when hunting or observing long range targets. They are far better than any spotting scope I have ever used when they are tripod-mounted. Overall I am quite satisfied with both binoculars.

Wow thank you 👌 did you have any issues with the image with the 25x100 when they arrived? Did you have to collimate them?
@@kodaco29 No, I did not have any trouble with them. I like my older 20x80mm binoculars best. The larger binoculars are harder to focus because they are unstable on my tripod, but once in focus, they are pretty awesome. I watched the rings of Saturn a few nights ago.
Knowledgeable video 💖💖💖 thank you for sharing 🙏🎉🎉🎉🎉💖💖💖🎁🎁🎁🎉🎉🎉
The echelon comes in a proper sturdy case
Hinge the lens covers to flip down, and back. Thought that had been done, before.
Maybe clamshell the main body of cast carbon fiber. Pop the lenses into the bottom, and close. reduces weight and cost, drastically.
Then make them night vision, and I'm in.
Cool! 😃 If you have the dough, look for some with HD or SD glass... But binoculars for Sky-Watching in general: Totally awesome!
I purchased these and spent a night struggling with them once attached to my tripod. I couldn’t center a star and felt shaky. I sent them back the next day. Too big for me, which I though I’d like that, like buying the biggest tv you can afford. I should try another smaller pair, but not too small.
How about you add footage of the product,we seeing through it space

Thanks for the review. Gosh they are massive!
good honest review,, not the usual youtube " review" which is invariably shus an advert
I laughed so hard at this, never seen a binocular nerd before 😂😂😂😂😂, omg this is hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂, rocked my universe😂
Excellent review. Thank you.
9 years ago a good fax machine it was.
Please tell me with this binocular I can view 1,500 metre,yards
Great review and to the point.I recently purchased the Celestron "Cometron" 15 X 70 mm binoculars and pleased with them.They are not light so will have to dig out my tripod and use it next time.I have seen the moon,full.Jupiter,Saturn,Mars and the Pleides,7 sister star cluster.As well as comet Neowise. Very nice and sharp with depth.Thanks for the review.

How was Saturn? Rings?
@@kencur9690 At the time never seen them but again these are heavy as heck to hold by hand and should use a tripod.haven't tried them in months but have to dig em out and try again soon.
@@ronpowers7087 cheers. Yes, at that size it’s usually either tripod or, at the very least, chair and preferably armrests. I’ve heard some bad things about these, so I’m really unsure. Some people swear by celestron as an affordable quality brand, others say it’s crap. I’m wondering whether they have issues with QC and it ends up being pot luck.
@@kencur9690 Would of bought another brand, but my first of that power and regret it due to the weight, but a learning process.Great for the moon or terestrial objects, but haven't used it much due to the weight.Waiting for the next comet to come soon.Should of saved up for a new scope though.Thanks for replies and could not make out Saturn rings at the time as were hand held then using.However nothing like yours here,look awesome and great advice on mounts.Wonder if rubberized tape on the len ends could hold the caps on.Plastic on metal isn't for sure.Thanks again.Hope someday you upload some shots taken by them.
Anyone know we're he bought that counterpoise tripod ? Or what make it is?
I think it's the Orion Paragon-Plus Binocular Mount and Tripod. Interestingly that mount is only rated for up to 6lbs. These binoculars weigh 8.75lbs so probably need the Orion Monster Parallelogram Binocular Mount & Tripod which is rated for 15lbs.
@@jnhart83 3 years..... But I finally know.. thanks 👍🏻
@@freesaxon6835 That's one of the crazy wonderful things about the Internet! I recently picked up a pair of these binoculars. I had to get them re-collimated by Celestron because the delivery person decided to drop them over our front gate onto a stone walkway. Seem pretty good now. I'll look into getting one of these parallelogram mounts down the road.
Are these binoculars good for seeing ships out far in the sea?
Popular question these days on youtube 😊
Terrestrial viewing is ok. I haven’t tried them beside any expensive ones though. My guess is there are better brighter ones out there but 4x the price. I would give them a 3 out of 5 with my limited knowledge for daytime viewing
THANK YOU , a very informative and really ell one review ,i really enjoyed it .
fantastic review! thanks!
I have to comment that I used 25x100's hand-held and LOVED IT (A.L.'s Bino Messier and Deep Sky Binocular). Not for double-stars, not for standing up. Just laying on a lounge chair, elbows propped on chest, looking UP. Lots less fuss than with a a tripod. I must state that I'm a big guy (6'3" , 235#), and in fair shape. Not for everyone, but don't feel like a tripod is needed for EVERYONE. I will quickly admit that I'll probably need to downsize to 20x80's in a few years to match this. Still, DSO's were extremely FUN with these. If you are looking for FUN, don't hesitate, get some big binos!
+Jim,Kathy Twellman Thanks for sharing that. Good tip! I tried the lounge chair thing and found that, yes, if my target was between about 25° and 55° elevation, I could rest the objectives on my knees and get stable sky.
I know this is an old comment, but thought I'd also say - I'm used to hand holding the big Canon super tele lenses (those huge white ones) which are heavier than these and have no problem - it's all down to what you're used to really!
Jim, I'm 73, 6-1, 250 lbs and am able to lie back in a lounge chair with arms on it for support.
I agree that this is better than using a tripod, which makes the viewer very restricted. I love my
25x100s and would not give them up.

Perhaps a medium sized suitcase could be modified-[say, holding that central knob for locating the set]--and padded for safety. The suitcase format could also hold maps, red-light, etc. And, if an option case from Celestron, could afford a 'chair' position or two.....
Have you had to do the colmination adjustment ?
Hi, can you please mention the tripod reference and if a finder can be attached to the binoculars? Thanks,
Which tripod did you use ? how did you focus the binoculars? I tried these on Celestron's "heavy duty alt-azimuth mount" and they didn't stay stable The single screw allows the binos to move relative to the mount even when the screw is tight. And the focus didn't work well. I was able to see Jupiter as a disc --but no bands etc. I returned them.
Hey buddy nice video I want to ask you that which tripod will be suitable for the celestron Skymaster 20 × 80 binoculars and from where to buy the adapter because adapter is not coming with the original box
I have these and at first was a bit disappointed but live in light polluted city ...
I've not yet had chance to go out to dark skies also it's summer in uk ...
can I ask in dark sky's in summer will there still be plenty to see ....as where I live with the naked eye at mo is a bit rubbish .. .
Which tripod and mount are you using?
I have a pair, great for skywatching, birding, you can even throw them in the hunting pack and go up in the tree stand.
Where can I find those counterweighted mounts?
On amzon
What tripod are you using? And my Skymaster lens are out of alignment ( seeing double) can you recommend how to repair that? Thx much!!!
Thank you!
excellent
Can i go for the 25x70 ? or is it worth spending more on the x100 ?
25×100 лучше! У него выходной зрачок 4мм! А у 25×70 зрачок меньше 3мм! Только со штативом! А 25×100 хоть и тяжёлый, но недолго с рук можно смотреть!!!
We’re going to Big Bend in a couple of weeks th-cam.com/users/postUgkxSt0aBrzyS1nxONvwm1e0u7ZDFD_eypAO so I bought these to use during the hikes, didn’t want to miss anything. As you can see by the photos I tested the phone adapter by taking a phone of a power pole on the next block and you can see the results. It took a couple of minutes to line the phone camera up to the eye piece, there’s a bit of a learning curve, but once it was longed up it stayed in place without any issues. So far I’m impressed with the feel and the weight, the neck strap is wide and soft so it feels good on my neck. I look forward to using it with my friend and grandson in Big Bend!
What tripod/counterweight system are you using here?
I'm able to rest the eyecups on my face with not too much discomfort. Does anyone know how to read the diopter settings??? They are like no other.
Thank you for the great explanation. My neighbor (very good guy) keeps teasing me every time he sees me...OK...I know what to do now.
Thank you.
Do you have any examples of shots taken with your Celestron binoculars?
Can you take photos with it and will it see nebula colours in clarity ??
Excellent review...
at 4mm exit pupil, how does it handle for someone wearing slightly higher powered glasses?
Great review. Can you see the difference between between a 20x zoom and 25x zoom? I was thinking about purchasing skymaster 20x 80mm pro model, but these 25x100mm are nice too. Which do you prefer? Thanks

well, this was 5 years ago so I would think 20x100 binoculars because you’ll just get just enough more light, like 5mm instead of 4mm (100 divided by 20, and 25)
And make sure you’ll actually buy these because you need to be far away from cities just to get a nicer view
where can I get a tripod like the one in the video?
Nice information
Hi I like your review, do you recommend these for terrestrial viewing. I am Looking for a pair of binoculars to watch whales from a Hightower office building where my wife works. The whales are between 2 to 8 km from her office window. Would these be suitable and using a tripod of course.
Thanks in advance
Athol
i want to see and go to Andronama
worth it's weight in gold alone for the simple fact if you go out and hold these up to your eyes, the looks that you'll get from anyone with a pair of eyes. not ideal for discreet spying out of your car window.
so which binocular strength do you recommend to see the craters on the moon?

Great review! I am thinking of buying the celestron skymaster 25x80 binoculars.. I can get them for $90 on amazon, "used like new" .. How well do you think those would work for astronomy compared to these? Thanks!
Rick Wallace I was wondering how are the 25 x 80 binoculars for you as in viewing things. 25x100 the cost and the review change my mind I am seriously think I'm getting the 25x80 binoculars.

I find, with 70mm, I cannot see the 4 of Jupiter's moons...but with 80mm, I could.
Are stabilizers practical?
you should see 4 moons with 70mm, I can see with TS 10x50
Danielchai S yeah u can see them with my 12x50
It takes about 25X to see Saturn's rings. You can see the Galilean system with 50mm binocs or even smaller than that.
Lol this guy looked all pervy when he said freak out your neighbors
I want one I want one!!!!!
It's been 5yrs have you got it?
Get one get one!!!!!
We have a pair of these where did you find a tripod?
Why so little mention of day time performance ?
Because it is specially designed for astronomy
How much weight in Kilograms?

@@davidrockefeller2007 OMG! Uncommonly heavy to handle briskly.
Hi, how do I calibrate this tele. I'm seeing dubble. Thanks.
Did you ever get your binocs collimated?
Is that the George Washington Bridge behind you?

there are far more better options nowadays in 25x100 size.
Where did you get the tripod? Greetings
Yeah I was going to ask the same thing..... As all that's on ebay etc is cheap rubbish.

About $300 new but you can find used ones cheaper. Make sure you buy used from
a reputable seller though. I adore my set.
Excast model no please
Freddie Merkury???
Right at the intro, the binoculars were swaying in the wind. Cheap crap, weighted mount, not a real tripod is why.
Não mostrou a potencia não adiantou nada
0:20 - 0:23 Looks like WallE
What kind of stand are you using for these binoculars?
it's a pity he didn't get back to you, I'm looking for a tripod like the one he's got to put my skymaster on.
I just recently bought the orion monster parallelogram and it's been working very well but expensive

U can look at girls with those and see inside someone house
From all the reviews I have read Celestron is just a cheap brand with low quality products and bad service.
