In general, most compact binoculars make the perfect travel companions or carry anywhere instrument that you can easily stow away in any rucksack or glove compartment. However what makes these even more travel and carry friendly is that they use roof prisms with a double hinge body design. This combination enables a very compact shape when opened up and in your hands, however by folding down both hinges, the shape they form is truly tiny and thus allows them to fit into most jacket and even some shirt pockets for the ultimate convenience in portability. This feature means that as well as for uses like hiking and camping, they can just as easily be taken to any outdoor sporting event without the need to carry an extra bag.
The 10x magnification on this model is ideal for longer ranges or achieving more detail at mid-range. However, keep in mind that it does reduce the width of the view and this is why they may not be the best choice at closer ranges or when attempting to view and fast moving objects.
Whilst it will be enough for most users, the 11 mm of eye relief will probably fall short of what is required should you want to wear glasses whilst using the binoculars.
Extremely affordable Celestron UpClose series offers binoculars for different use, among which are also two zoom models with adjustable magnifications for finest details without the need to move to another location. You can choose between the smallest binoculars on the market with 8x21 configuration and large 20x50 configuration for nighttime observations. You can take them with you on sport events, concerts, when hiking, hunting, birdwatching or looking at the night sky for stars, comets, planets etc. The smallest model has a roof prism design and larger has a Porro prism design that helps to enhance light transmission. UpClose binoculars are multi-coated, using BK7 glass and splash-proof that protects them in damp areas and are equipped with central focusing mechanism instead of individual.
UpClose binoculars are made out of extremely durable aluminum housing that helps to protect them against impacts together with rubber armouring. Small dimensions that make them compact also help with easier portability and comfortable handling, even when using them for longer periods of time. UpClose binoculars are splash-proof, which means they aren’t waterproof and fog-proof but are still durable and tight enough to prevent damage when used in the damp areas. Fully sized models are also tripod adaptable which allows you to mount them on a tripod and get steadier images.
UpClose series offers binoculars for different kinds of use. Depending on the power and objective lens diameter, you can choose between fixed or zoom configuration. The zoom binoculars allow you to make power adjustments – changing magnification without need to change the position. The Porro prism system of bigger fully sized models draws in more light and allows you to gather enough brightness even in the low-light conditions which is extremely convenient for astronomy observations. BK7 prisms and multi-coated system also help to enhance brightness, contrast and colors without major distortions and reflections. They are equipped with central focusing mechanism and left-eye diopter to make proper adjustments. Foldable eyecups have a 12mm eye-relief so it’s suggested to try them on if you are eyeglass wearer.
UpClose binoculars come in a case for storage and protection with a binocular strap. They are also equipped with objective lens covers and eyecups covers to protect the lenses, however they’re only included in bigger models, not in smaller roof prism models.
