In this video, Dave Farina from CosmosSafari.com does a deep dive into the full lineup of Skymaster Pro ED Binoculars from Celestron. These binoculars are great for both daytime use as well as to do astronomy.
These binoculars are the next generation of Skymaster series binoculars, sporting several great features that take them to the next level.
1) ED glass reduces aberrations
2) Accepts tripod adapters on both the 7x50mm and 15x70mm variants
3) The 20x80mm variant is tripod-ready with an adjustable rail for balance.
4) Integrated but removable dust caps.
5) Retractable eyecups to provide the necessary eye relief for individuals with glasses
6) Accepts 1-1/4" astronomical filters (you would need two, one for each eye).
7) Premium protective carry bags

Very informative review that I wish I had seen two weeks prior. Either way, these 7x50 binos are amazing and I'll probably end up with all 3 at some point anyhow.

Was able to get cloud belts on Jupiter with phone at 8x on the 20x80. Was lucky with perfect focus and a still atmosphere few days after opposition. UHC filters best for Orion Nebula in Urban Center, a feature othersand others aren't doing for now.. They are quite transportable. Trailseeker Tripod is transportable but a tricky one to use. Sadly though they stop at 20x80 leaving the 25x100 and largers size without equivalent. It is sad that this demo didn't show snapshots from a phone cam for Moon Jupiter Saturn Venus, Sun (with solar glass filters). M42 and M31, and open and globular clusters. Resolution of many stars and double stars as well. Main issue in handholding 15x70 is the basic shake above 10-12x. You can stabilize the elbows on a stick or a table to get 12-15x clear view. For birding keep in mind the 20x80 has like 30m minimal focus, so better have a small handheld one for closer range viewing. For viewing on tripod, Videohead photography tripod are nearer the standard, you might need geared tripods above 80mm aperture for the central column.

Love this feedback. I appreciate you watched most/all of the video. It sounds like you have had a really great experience with these binoculars. I honestly didn’t even think about trying to show the view through the them with the phone as your eyes vs a camera are so difficult to compare. Maybe it’s something to look into for a future video. For now, I will take your feedback into consideration and see if an opportunity exists to do a comparison. If anything, maybe do some comparison field of view and brightness values between binos. Thanks, and please continue to provide this level of constructive feedback. It makes me better and helps our community.

Just went up to APM 28x110 ED, largest type of Porros. See the details in the mountains center of craters of the moon. In bad urban lights, dim stars pops.

Binoculars that require a tripod are too hard to manage. Plus looking at objects straight up are near impossible,

@mrmaxaxl 5 месяцев назад

Nah. Just put them on a tripod and wait until whatever star or planet you want to see lowers in the sky. Or just look at something else.

This is a brilliant video mate,I'm so close to getting the big ones.are they better than the bresser equivalent?

Celestron Pro ED binoculars have no real ED glass, it's worst product

@CosmosSafari 2 месяца назад

There are non ED SkyMaster binoculars, but these are the premium ED glass variant. These are extremely well made and a big upgrade with multiple unique design features from the non-ED variant.
