Celestron 71348 Outland X 10x50 Roof Prism Binoculars, Black

Very good value pocketable binoculars, the image quality is way above their price point, with bright clear sharp optics. They are a good size and weight, comfortable to use and seem really well made.

Great binoculars for the price. Very clear. Really good for bird watching. They are a good size and weight. The build feels like decent quality.

I had been impressed by all the 5 star reviews and ordered a pair of these for bird-watching, fell-walking etc. The good points are, relatively light weight, nice build quality, excellent clarity. So why 4 stars not 5? Because I did a side-by-side comparison with a pair of German made Minox 10 x 42s. At 4 times the price, clearly they are better in terms of construction, though heavier and slightly more compact. The most noticeable difference is in light transmission, on a dull day the Minox are noticeably brighter, also the focus wheel is only one turn end to end and seems to snap into focus much more easily than the two turn Celestron focus wheel. The differences are not massive but enough to lose the Celestron's their 5th star. Having said that, these are excellent binos at a budget price and the 75% saving compared to the Minox probably only loses you 15% in quality and in bright conditions these are very very good with clarity only marginally less than the Minox. You pays your money and takes your choice, and for me having a budget pair for scrambling up fells etc where they could get lost or damaged was a good choice, rarely will you be bothered by the trade-offs I have described. A good buy as long as you bear in mind the slight shortcomings compared to a premium product.

Excellent pair of binoculars. Performance wise they are great,They have excellent christal clear vision.The magnification is perfect,and It's very easy to keep your subject in focus, even when it is moving with the precise focus wheel.They are light and compact, I would recommend these to anyone.

I use full size binoculars and a scope for birdwatching but wanted something small enough to carry on holiday without shelling out for high spec kit. I am surprised at the good quailty of the build and clarity of the image delivered by the binoculars. They are easy to carry in a pouch which fits onto a trouser belt and comes with an acceptable neck strap. At £50 it would be unfair to compare the image clarity with much more expensive glasses but I do feel these punch above their price point. Focus control is perfectly acceptable and there is plenty of adjustment for comfortable use.

Fabulous little binos - compact, easy to carry around, good optics for the price, use them all the time as they can be stuffed in a day sack.

Great Binoculars good value for money.

Brought these for my son for bird watching they are great quality and very good clear images up close or at a distance would recommend them
