Celestron Cometron 12x70

Designed for astronomy, but is also a binocular that can also be used for long-distance observation during the day, these 12x70 Celestron Cometron binoculars perform best when fitted to a tripod using the included tripod adapter.
The large 70mm objective lenses and multi-coated optics ensure that a good deal of the available light at night is captured. They also play a big part in producing a reasonably large exit pupil of 5.8 mm, which means that that the shaft of light is large enough for you to adequately make out a nice bright image for a better view at night.
The 12x power is enough to help you reach further into space and thus provide improved image detail, but at the same time the field of view is not too narrow which can make it hard to locate objects or scan the sky. Those who specifically want a wider view may wish to consider the 7x50 Cometron instead.
Eyeglass wearers will be pleased to discover that with 19.6 mm of eye-relief, there is ample space for you to be able to position your eyes at the correct distance behind the ocular lenses with your glasses on.
