The powerful 12x magnification in combination with the large, but at the same time not huge 50mm objectives on this Celestron Granite makes them suitable for those looking for a long range binocular that is not too big, too heavy or too powerful to carry about all day and then use from the hands without the need to attach to a tripod. Add to this their high-grade glass and coatings and you also get a bright, superior view in the day as well as a reasonably good performance in low light conditions.
Ideal uses include hunting, wildlife observation as well as border patrol, security or search and rescue operations in wide open areas and over longer distances. These can also make a good choice for those who enjoy the occasional stargazing.
Being tripod adaptable you can also easily mount this binocular to a tripod using a standard adapter (not included) to get rock steady views which is great for long periods of observation or to observe the finest details of an object by eliminating image shake.
The pinnacle of Celestron binoculars is definitely Granite ED series. These binoculars received The Cornell Lab of Ornithology award and award for the best Binoculars of 2013 by Best Binoculars Review. They are suitable for bird watching, hunting, traveling, wildlife, nature and astronomy viewing and offer ultra-high performance, perfect even for professionals. Incredible performance is a result of an ED glass, fully multi-coatings of lenses, phase correction, with other features such as open-bridge design for comfortable handling and 100% waterproof and fog-proof construction for incredible protection and clear viewing. Granite ED also comes with a harness strap, helping you with comfortable portability.
Amazing Celestron Granite ED offers great ergonomic and aesthetic design. They are made out of ultra-light magnesium alloy that helps to decrease the weight and makes them incredibly light and fatigue free even when carrying them for longer periods of time. Beautiful aesthetic design and shape wrapped in black rubber armouring which is incredibly thick and able to protect them against impacts, makes them a real pleasure to use. The surface is rugged enough to prevent sudden slip out of your hands with the help of an open-bridge. This very welcomed feature allows you to safely and firmly grip the binoculars around the barrels and helps you to carry them with one hand when walking. Granite ED is also well protected with tight seals making them impervious to moisture, dust and other solid particles. You will never have to worry about exposing them to extreme weather conditions. With the help of nitrogen gas that is purged inside the construction, the clear view will never be compromised when facing sudden temperature changes, that makes the occurrence of condensation on the inner sides of the lenses.
The Granite ED glass crafted in Japan, offers Extra-low dispersion ability for sharp images free of major distortion such as chromatic aberration and reflections. With the help of fully multi-coatings, these feature enhance light transmission rate, making images incredibly bright and also rich in contrast with accurate color reproduction. Superior image quality is also a result of phase coated prisms and high-grade BaK-4 prisms which offer razor sharp images even in the dim light. For focusing adjustments, the Granite ED offers smooth and quick central focusing knob, again, beautifully designed and rubberized for non-slip rotations with the help of the right-eye diopter. Granite ED eyepieces are rubberized and multi-positioned for ideal eye-relief for eyeglass wearers.
Granite ED binoculars comes with a carrying case for storage and neck strap for easier carrying. They are also equipped with objective lens and eyecup lens covers for additional protection.
