Celestron Cometron 7x50mm Astronomy Binoculars | Wide-Field Astronomy Binocular, Porro Prism, Multi-Coated Optics, Comfortable Handheld, Tripod Adaptable, Carrying Case

I bought these to supplement my stargazing. I am new to the hobby and have been using a bigger brother of these little guys (the 15x70), but while having to order another pair of the giants due to an accident, I decided to toss in a pair of these as well. They are so CHEAP! And so highly rated! I figured for the price it would be hard to go wrong. And this was the case - things went extremely right. I went to an event our local astronomy club gave for a scout group and set up my 15x70 on its tripod, and hung these around my neck. A little more background: we are in Florida, and the event happened in mid-June, and it had stormed all afternoon and was still dripping when we arrived at the site. The skies partially cleared as we waited, but the humidity could have filled up a filter jug. About 1/4 of the way into our various demonstrations, my large binoculars got fogged up on their tripod. The sides of the big binos - which are not coated with rubber - were literally dripping with dew by the end of the demonstration. The lenses fogged up completely, rendered useless by Florida's humidity. I could see more with my naked eye. So much for my brand-new pair of 15x70 giant binocs. It was a much happier story for our little troopers here. They have rubber on almost all of the exposed parts, and I don't know if that was the reason, but never ONCE did I notice fogging on the lenses, nor any dew on the binos. Thus it was that I was able to impress the scouts with how a light, inexpensive pair of binoculars can help open up the sky. I've heard stories of collimation problems, but I'm happy to say my pair was aligned perfectly and performed wonderfully, and one excited scout is almost certain to get a pair of them for Christmas this year as a result of the event... Of course, these would in theory be outstripped in functionality by much more expensive and/or larger binoculars. They don't image-stabilize, they aren't waterproof, and they are probably more subject to quality-control issues than if you bought something for $300 or more. But... price. You could buy TEN of these for the price of the really good binocs, and have spares for parties. They won't open up the sky like the larger binoculars or a telescope, but... they still bring out details the naked eye cannot see, and are the first thing I'd grab if I only had limited stargazing availability because they are zero-to-viewing in just a few seconds. And apparently they are somewhat resistant to the effects of extreme humidity, which is a massive plus here in the semi-tropics. Also, as a bonus, their smaller size makes them useful for daytime viewing as well (nature hikes, concerts, etc), something that I cannot say about the heavy, bulky 15x70s. These will start accompanying me on my park walks, and I've already used them to observe deer in my yard. I therefore highly recommend these not only as starter binocs for newbies to the night sky world, but as a permanent supplement for those who have a larger telescope. And they'd be great for daytime users as well. Their portability, usable quality, ease-of-use, and humidity resistance really makes them stand out when you consider how little they cost. And as I found out last night, they are just light enough that many children can manage them for several minutes at a time (though if the kid is small enough you might want to invest in a light-weight tripod - something that costs less than $30 should be fine for this particular pair). Yes, the really expensive brands are no doubt better, but at less than $30USD per pair, it's easy to justify starting out with these or just adding a pair to one's scope collection.

These are great for the price and the clarity is phenomenal! I needed a pair of binoculars and researched which were great for viewing the night sky. They are lightweight and perfect for star gazing. You won’t be disappointed!

I bought myself these binoculars for my own Christmas present. I wanted something to view the boats, mountains, and the stars... I'm an amateur star gazer... these binoculars are easy to use, no adjustments are needed. I appreciate the ease of use, the grab and go availability. These binoculars are good for terrain and star gazing. I'd say perfect for a beginner or intermediate. You won't be able to see planets distinctly, but you will be able to view the moon and the bright stars, as well as any terrain elements ie mountains, aerial movements etc. I appreciate these binoculars,although I wish there was more capacity for visual focus, as not all views have the ability to focus to a solid perspective. In short, feel comfortable buying these binoculars is you are looking for a device to help you better spectate your surroundings- ie stars or terrain- don't expect to see all the craters of the moon or the rings of Saturn. I'd definitely buy this product again, due to it meeting my needs- tbh I use these to search the sky for UAPs- which I have filmed and documented with this as a tool/device. I'm pleased with my purchase.

Great gift for an astronomy lover, less hassle than a telescope and definitely works to magnify the sky. Good price for quality.

Great quality. Used during the day at the beach and was able To see the moon. Really good product. Would buy again. Not heavy but excellent clarity. The case is sturdy and protects the lens.

Bought these kinda for the name and the sale price was really really good. Couldn't pass them up. Well I was pleasantly surprised for a cheap pair. The field of view is great. Binocular quality is good. My only kinda complaint is the caps don't stay on very well and are not attached. I use for stargazing, with other binoculars and telescopes. They are a good addition that I don't mind lending out.

Solid performance for day or astronomy objects. For the money, this is a great buy for beginners. Celestron has a solid name for binoculars and telescopes. They are well made and I bought them for use at Star Parties for beginners. I highly recommend them if you are a beginner looking to put your toe in the astronomers water.

This review is for the Celestron-Cometron 7x50 Astronomy Binoculars. Overall these are good working binoculars, the problem is, they are considered entry level for stargazing and comet watching, but can be difficult to adjust and focus. Finding the correct IPD should be a simple inward or outward movement at the hinge. However, the hinge is a bit to lose even for small children and beginners. This results in over correcting. The main focus dial located on the bridge, moves freely but does not offer enough resistance, and again, this leads to over or under focusing. The diopter dial is fine, it stayed fixed once it was set. When you consider these binoculars are for beginners, they are too challenging in my opinion to work with, especially if you are trying to teach someone how to adjust binoculars and how to correctly use them. In terms of optical quality, they are on par with other entry level binoculars at this price point and offer clear viewing, perhaps a notch above. They work well for both terrestrial and celestial viewing. The 7X magnification is enough power to see nice images of the moon including craters. The 7X magnification is also ideal for those who are not use to holding binoculars, less is more in terms of power when looking at stars and comets. The higher the magnification, the more hand shaking, and although these binoculars have a nice 50MM objective lens for light gathering, they are light enough for most people to handle without any real problem, children included. Because of their wide field of view, tracking and following satellites is fun. The binoculars come with a very nice nylon carrying case, although the strap is short. The neck strap is also a good quality, in fact the neck strap that comes with the Cometron 7x50 is by far and away better than the neck strap that came with my more expensive SkyMasters. I like these binoculars for casual stargazing, bird watching and to take on hikes, but given the weak hinge and focus dial, you may find yourself adjusting and re-adjusting the focus more than you would with something in the roof prism style of binoculars. Still a good bargain for the casual user...

The focusser is all-plastic and thereby whobbles a lot. The lenses immediately fog up when using the lens cups. The image does not appear to be very sharp.

Ürün belirtilen tarih aralığında geldi, korunaklı bir şekilde paketlenmiş, satıcıya teşekkür ederim. Henüz mercek ayarlarını tam olarak yapamadım ilk defa dürbün kullanıyorum, ama bu haliyle bile çok beğendim, balkondan çok uzak mesafeleri bile yakın ve net gördüm. Fiyat performans açısından başarılı bir ürün. Tek moralimi bozan ürün bugün elime ulaştı ve bugün fiyatının 400 TL birden düştüğünü görüyorum, açıkçası hoş bir durum olmadı bu.

Top, achetées en promo à super prix, ce sont mes premières « vraies » jumelles après avoir eu des modèles vraiment bas de gamme. Je suis impressionné par la luminosité et la netteté.

Vamos lá, ele chegou no período de 13 dias (normal) entregue pela total express 💯. Paguei 401 Sobre o binóculos, é o meu primeiro, e pra ser bem sincero eu amei! Depois que peguei a prática de regular e fazer as observações, foi fantástico, a qualidade é muito boa, pena que na foto não dá pra ver direito mais é bem limpo, ainda não tiver a oportunidade de fazer observações noturna pois tá nublado mais pelas observação acredito que vai dá bom. Sobre a aproximação de 7x, não aproxima tanto mas tem uma ótima e muito boa aproximação, em lugares de médias distância fica ótimo, não há do que reclamar. Por mais que algumas pessoas falaram que é frágil, no pegar dele passa uma certa resistência, é bom de pegar nele, além de ser muito bonito. Sobre os acabamentos, olhando inversamente, do lado maior para o menor, da pra perceber tipo uma cola em ambos os lados, não sei se é normal ou é a qualidade do acabamento, porém não atrapalha, só questão de estética mesmo. Recomendo sim, pode comprar sem medo, gostei demais👌💯

Ich habe das Cometron als Geschenk gekauft und natürlich gleich erstmal getestet. Man will ja wissen, was man verschenkt. Vor allem, wenn es für ein Kind gedacht ist. Vorweg: Ich besitze ein knapp fünfmal so teures Glas eines anderen Herstellers mit derselben Öffnung und Vergrößerung und habe das einfach mal zum Vergleich herangezogen. Im direkten Vergleich hat das Cometron doch recht gut abgeschnitten. Nur ganz minimal geringerer Kontrast, der Unterschied ist fast nicht zu bemerken, minimal stärkere Reflexe bei direkten Gegenlichtquellen (Straßenlampen, Autoscheinwerfer). Das Sehfeld ist beim Cometron etwas weiter. Auch recht deutliches Kidneybeaning bei zu dichtem Blick in die Okulare im hellen Tageslicht ist gewöhnungsbedürftig. Abhilfe könnten anders designte Augenmuscheln schaffen. Aber wenn man es weiß und den Effekt kennt (Astronomisch Erfahrene kennen das Problem bei lichtstarken Optiken), kann man das durch etwas Übung ausgleichen. Ansonsten überzeugt das optische System auf ganzer Linie. Aber wie geschrieben, das Vergleichsgerät das diese Problemchen nicht hat, stammt aus einer deutlich teureren Preisklasse und ist auch für einen direkten Vergleich eigentlich nicht angebracht. Für seine Preisklasse liefert das Cometron ein ganz fantastisches Ergebnis. Es macht schlicht Spaß und das Bild das mein Exemplar liefert, ist absolut toll. Ja, das Cometron ist Klasse. Es liefert für sich betrachtet ein scharfes, kontrastreiches und helles Bild. Die optischen Achsen sind bei meinem Exemplar auch super justiert. Das Cometron macht einfach Spaß bis weit in die Dämmerung hinein. Am Himmel konnte ich es nur kurz in einer Wolkenlücke am Mond testen. Auch da nichts zu beanstanden. Optisch hat es bestanden. Ohne wenn und aber. Mechanisch... nun ja, die Preisklasse. Also erstmal klappert oder wackelt nichts. Das ist gut. Das Fokussierrad läuft recht leicht. Gut für Kinderhände. Selbst verstellt hat es sich auch nicht. Auch gut. Das Fernglas an sich ist gemessen an meinem Glas aus der anderen Preisklasse recht leicht. Es wird viel Kunststoff verbaut. Auch der Okularträger (die Arme an denen die Okulare befestigt sind) scheint Plastik zu sein. Aber 100% sicher bin ich mir nicht. Das sollte aber kein Problem sein. Man rammt sich ja die Okulare nicht aufs Auge. Die Gummierung des Hauptkörpers ist aufgeklebt und wirkt billig. Man riecht es auch, aber nicht unangenem stark. Es riecht wie frisch gekaufter Kunststoff. ;-) Auch in der Verarbeitung wirkt es so. Aber so lange sich das nicht löst, ist das auf die Preisklasse bezogen akzeptabel. Zumal die verbaute Optik das locker wett macht. Aber insgesamt hat das Gehäuse seine Ecken und Kanten. In der Gehäuseverarbeitung ist definitiv für künftige Modelle viel Luft nach oben. Das wirkt doch etwas plump. Vor allem an den Kanten der Gummierung. Mein Fazit: Wenn ich die Preisklasse zugrunde lege, ist das ein super Fernglas mit sehr brauchbaren optischen Fähigkeiten. Es hat haptisch seine recht deutlichen Ecken und Kanten, vielleicht ist es auch kein Fernglas fürs ganze Leben, aber seinen Job als lichtstarkes 7x50-Fernglas für astronomische Zwecke, aber auch als Alltagsglas für unterwegs erfüllt es voll und ganz. Man kann es getrost kaufen, wenn es um den Nutzwert geht. Ich persönlich mag ja solche Geräte, die auch in den unteren Preisklassen ihren Zweck hundertprozentig erfüllen. Das hat man heutzutage nicht oft. Hier ist das gegeben. Und die Kanten, na ja, das ist damit auch ok.
