Astronomical Binoculars

The Granite Series are the finest binoculars Celestron has ever offered

• Celestron Granite Series Binoculars are the pinnacle of optical and mechanical design.  They stand up well against the much more expensive European and higher end Japanese manufactured binoculars at a fraction of their cost – a real value.
• They feature ED glass (low dispersion) in the optical design and they deliver edge-to-edge sharpness with excellent color correction & razor sharp images while virtually eliminating chromatic aberration, field curvature, and distortion.
• The Granite series uses a state-of-the-art modern open frame/hinge style which provides an excellent grip and is comfortable to handle (even single handed) with the reduced weight.
• The body is made of magnesium which is much lighter than aluminum but it is more rugged and tough for handling in any environment.

• Fully Broadband Multi-Coatings – provide maximum throughput light transmission with the highest levels of contrast.  They provide superb natural color fidelity and vivid color saturation. 

The Vixen BT81S-A Binocular Telescopes are perfect for viewing terrestrial objects like comets as well as brighter deep sky objects such as globular clusters.

The 12x80 model (Item #1455) with a near 7mm exit pupil and 4.5 degree field of view is best suited for astronomical use.

The NEW 16-40x80 Zoom Binoculars (not waterproof)  have the zoom focus conveniently located near the right eye piece.

The 16x80 model allows the observer to get closer to the action without any increase in unit weight.

The 20x80 wide angle model represents the best of high magnification, wide angle viewing.
