The 10x power on this Landscout is great for gaining greater image detail at longer distances and thus ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, hunters and birders operating out on the plains, in the mountains or along the coast. However, with your standard 10x42mm binocular, the low light performance is far from optimal. So whilst the larger 50mm objectives on this Landscout do add a little weight and size to the instrument, they are able to capture more of the available light and also produce a generously sized 5mm exit-pupil, which certainly helps you perceive a brighter image in bad conditions or when the sun is just below the horizon and thus extends their scope of use.
The 10x50 configuration, along with the porro prism design and the fact that they are tripod adaptable also makes these binoculars a popular choice for astronomy.
With the large, easy to reach central focus wheel and a right eye diopter adjustment dial, you are firstly able to calibrate the binocular to allow for any differences in vision between your left and right eyes and from then it is easy to quickly focus on any object from a distance of 7 meters away right to infinity.
At 17.9mm the level of eye relief is good, which if you also consider the adjustable twist-up eyecups, then these can comfortably be used by those who wear eyeglasses and still deliver the full field of view to the user.
Celestron manufacturer offers LandScout binoculars that combine high-quality optics, great ergonomics and protection. There are four models available, with award winning 10x50 binoculars, being as one of the best in 2015 by Best Binoculars Review. These Porro prism binoculars are able to satisfy every wildlife enthusiast looking for bright view-through with incredibly large field of view and compact dimensions. They are convenient for every wildlife enthusiast, birdwatcher and hunter.
LandScout binoculars are built using Aluminum housing that is lightweight but still durable to withstand the harshest weather conditions. Together with tight seals, these binoculars won’t let any moisture, dust or other solid particles enter the construction and damage the clear view. They are purged with nitrogen gas that helps eliminate internal condensation that occurs in early mornings or late evenings due to quick temperature fluctuations. The non-slip grip due to rugged rubber also helps with a non-slip grip. These Porro binoculars also have a very small dimensions, making them very compact and easy to handle for longer periods of time. They are also equipped with tripod adaptable screw, so you can mount them to a tripod and get steady images, especially convenient for higher magnifications.
Celestron LandScout is a Porro prism binocular which means the eyecup lenses and objective lenses are not in the same line. This setting makes the construction a little more robust and wide, but the prisms inside offer reflection with minimal loss of light. Using high-quality BaK-4 prisms the loss of brightness is even lower. They glass is fully multi-coated which also helps with bigger light transmission rate and enhances contrast and colors for lifelike images. These Porro binoculars are equipped with central focusing mechanism instead of individual set on eyecups. This allows you to make focusing adjustments for both eyes at the same time, with right-diopter helping you to eliminate the differences in both eyesight if you have them. They are also equipped with multi-positioned eyecups with very generous eye-relief able to satisfy eyeglass wearers. Let’s not forget about the LandScout’s amazing wide field of view, that helps you in dynamic situations, such as following fast moving subjects like big birds.
LandScout binoculars come with a carrying case to store them. There is also included neck strap for easier carrying them around the neck and objective lens and eyecup lens covers.
