    Just went up to APM 28x110 ED, largest type of Porros. See the details in the mountains center of craters of the moon. In bad urban lights, dim stars pops.

    Was able to get cloud belts on Jupiter with phone at 8x on the 20x80. Was lucky with perfect focus and a still atmosphere few days after opposition. UHC filters best for Orion Nebula in Urban Center, a feature othersand others aren't doing for now.. They are quite transportable. Trailseeker Tripod is transportable but a tricky one to use. Sadly though they stop at 20x80 leaving the 25x100 and largers size without equivalent. It is sad that this demo didn't show snapshots from a phone cam for Moon Jupiter Saturn Venus, Sun (with solar glass filters). M42 and M31, and open and globular clusters. Resolution of many stars and double stars as well. Main issue in handholding 15x70 is the basic shake above 10-12x. You can stabilize the elbows on a stick or a table to get 12-15x clear view. For birding keep in mind the 20x80 has like 30m minimal focus, so better have a small handheld one for closer range viewing. For viewing on tripod, Videohead photography tripod are nearer the standard, you might need geared tripods above 80mm aperture for the central column.

      Love this feedback. I appreciate you watched most/all of the video. It sounds like you have had a really great experience with these binoculars. I honestly didn’t even think about trying to show the view through the them with the phone as your eyes vs a camera are so difficult to compare. Maybe it’s something to look into for a future video. For now, I will take your feedback into consideration and see if an opportunity exists to do a comparison. If anything, maybe do some comparison field of view and brightness values between binos. Thanks, and please continue to provide this level of constructive feedback. It makes me better and helps our community.

    Very informative review that I wish I had seen two weeks prior. Either way, these 7x50 binos are amazing and I'll probably end up with all 3 at some point anyhow.

    I love my 20x80 ED binos! I have the Orion version. These binos, of course, they must be on a tripod and are no substitute for a small pair of portable hand held binos for sports or wildlife. But for astronomy, aperture is king! I use a nice Bogen tripod that cranks way up over my head, so looking at things at the zenith are not a problem for me.

    What was your impression of the 20x80 on the Regal? I'm reading reviews that it's too wobbly to hold them well for stargazing.

    • @CosmosSafari
      @CosmosSafari  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I think it depends on your height. I am not very tall, so for me I can keep the tripod relatively short and don’t extend it to the max. As a result, it is more stable than it would be if you are taller. I didn’t have any issues. There is always a heavier duty tripod you could use. The question you need to ask is it as portable? I think the Regal strikes a nice balance for price/portability/capability.

      @@CosmosSafari Thanks for your reply! I was referring to the head capacity to hold 7.5 pounds binoculars + potentially a phone. Does it work well or did you feel like it was pushing the tripod's capacity to its limit?
      Good job on the channel!

      @@anthonyboisvert9857 I didn't know an answer to your question and didn't want to rely on my memory, so I tested the Regal with the largest 20x80mm binos. The head capacity is sufficient in my testing and holds the binoculars in place without any issue.

    Binoculars that require a tripod are too hard to manage. Plus looking at objects straight up are near impossible,

      Nah. Just put them on a tripod and wait until whatever star or planet you want to see lowers in the sky. Or just look at something else.

    Celestron Pro ED binoculars have no real ED glass, it's worst product

      There are non ED SkyMaster binoculars, but these are the premium ED glass variant. These are extremely well made and a big upgrade with multiple unique design features from the non-ED variant.
