About Celestron SkyMaster Giant 15x70 Binoculars
Overall Feedback:
93% positive
83% praised the high-quality lenses and coating, however 17% were disappointed
Binoculars with 15x magnification and 70mm objective diameter lenses are a great choice for viewing the night sky, whale watching, and birdwatching across large open areas.
I am satisfied with the binoculars' coating and lens quality. They focus perfectly on the moon, some planets, airplanes, birds, and anything else that is too far away to see clearly.
I assume the inexpensive optics are causing the odd cloudy ring around the image edge by day in the binoculars.
80% found them durable, while 20% experienced breakage
These binoculars are a good pair for kicking around without worrying about ruining a high-end pair, and they only cost $75.
Earlier models of binoculars were poorly packaged and had consistently bad collimation.
82% liked the wide field of view, but 18% found it narrow
I find it great for observing shorebirds.
I have noticed a bit of chromatic aberration and flaring when viewing something bright like Venus through the binoculars. But, considering the price, I am still happy with my purchase.
During the day, there is an odd cloudy ring around the image edge of my binoculars.
80% praised the crystal-clear images, while 20% desired more
I noticed that the binoculars focus beautifully on the moon, some planets, airplanes, birds, pretty much anything you'd like to see close up that's too far away.
The binoculars focus beautifully on anything you'd like to see close up that's too far away, including the moon, planets, airplanes, and birds.
By day, there is an odd cloudy ring around the image edge and the binoculars are not true to color, making the moon more yellow than it is by night.
I noticed that the binoculars had a double image on both terrestrial objects and on Jupiter.

89% appreciated the magnification power, yet 11% didn't
I chose this binocular because of its 15x magnification and 70mm objective diameter lenses. It is a superb choice for viewing the night sky, whale watching, and birdwatching across large open areas.
I love the 15x70 size binoculars for quick viewing.
I am wondering if the 20x80 binoculars would be a better option with better magnification and enough eye relief for night viewing.
79% liked the lightweight design, but 21% found them bulky
I did not mention the weight of the binoculars.
These binoculars are large and heavy, making it difficult to carry them around.
