 "Great binoculars for birding" 2010-05-09
By Barbara Andrews (Athens, GA)
This is by far the best pair of binoculars I have ever owned. My last pair got ruined because of condensation so I was particularly interested in a waterproof pair. The view is so clear and I can now see a good distance without feeling like I am cross-eyed. The price I paid was excellent (happened to get it on a really good sale price day). I could not be happier with the excellent quality, ease of use, and quick shipping.

 "Satisfied so far" 2010-04-26
By Attu (Lubbock, TX)
After studying various reviews, I selected this item for its cost/quality ratio. It is reported to have very good optics and an excellent guarantee. It has a very close focus, and it is the first binocular that I have been able to use with my glasses. I have not done much distance viewing at this point, but I will this summer on a trip to Alaska. I have no reason to believe I won't be well satisfied.

 "Outland LX 8x42 binocular review" 2010-04-13
By James M. Leslie (Baltimore Maryland)
I just recieved the Celestron Outland LX 8x42 binoculars and have tried them out. The long eye relief makes them very easy to use with glasses and the image does not seem to be very sensitive to eye placement - also making them easy to use. The image is bright and clear with only a small degredation near the edge (all binocualrs have some)- not quite as good as some of the very high end binoculars I have looked through costing many times the list price of these, but not off by very much. Center resolution is excellent - probably as good as can be obtained without dielectric coating on the prisms. The close focus is amazing - seeming like a long range microscope. Focus is pretty fast from close to far. The strap is very wide and comfortable. Weight seems about normal and the binoculars seem fairly small, easily fitting the hands and easy to hold in position for long periods. I haven't tested the waterproof or fogproof claims but the construction seems very good. I have no reason to doubt them. All in all an excellent pair of binoculars, especially for the $79.99 (list is just under $200)I paid from Adorama which shipped them quickly. I would like to see a case that is more protective. The one that it comes with is just synthetic fabric. However the objective covers are excellent snap-off ones and the soft rubber eyepiece cover is one-piece but will stay on with any adjustment. Recommended!

 "good all around binoculars--great for the price!" 2010-02-20
By M. Terrell (San Francisco CA USA)
Since my passion is photography, I wanted an inexpensive pair of binoculars, saving my dollars for high end optics for camera lenses. I've learned from photography to do diligent research and find the most important features to get good value. I saw that the Celestron binocs had all the features I wanted: a very wide field of view--388 feet at 1000 yards; a close focus distance of 6.1'; waterproof casing and fog proof lenses; and a compact (4.8x2.2x5.6 inches) and lightweight (23 oz)body. I couldn't find any other binocs with all these features at the price I paid for these, and since just one week later they are now listed on Amazon for 30. less, this is even more true. They arrived a day early, and I am quite happy with them--and would be thrilled if I had paid less than 100. for them. They are bright, easy to focus (once I set them up), and can be used with or without glasses. (As someone who is very near sighted, it's a real treat to be able to read a sign two blocks away without my glasses using these binocs). I have been amazed not just at the detail I can now see in watching the birds in the trees near my home-these binocs give a full three dimensional perspective, but have been blown away at the power that allows me to read the United Airlines sign on hangars and clearly see the runways at the airport that's about 5 miles away. Most important, it's fairly easy to switch focus from near to far. I can't wait to take these on vacations, where I know they will bring wildlife up close. One other use I expect they will excel at is watching baseball, especially with the wide field of view. The soft sided case with its own strap, padded strap, and cleaning cloth are nice. The one downside for me is that the caps for the objective lens can't be tethered to the strap, so I had to rig up my own system (a small coin purse attached to the strap). I know there are far better quality binoculars out there, but these are an excellent pair for the money.

 "Excellent for first time user of binoculars! Me!" 2008-09-06
By Judy A. Coene (United States)
After visiting two local stores to apply "hands on" to different binoculars, and after returning one pair, I took the better part of a day researching binoculars. My sister gave me the specs for her $300+ pair so I used that as a base. Her binoculars carry another brand name but were made by Celestron. Bottom line, I got them home, took them from the box and could see the birds in my yard with a minimum of adjustment. I have always had great difficulty in using binoculars and have always been frustrated when trying to buy a pair. I am extremely happy with these and the price is wonderful. The specs compare to much higher priced binoculars. I learned that my attempts to buy a light weight pair of binoculars was a mistake. The "42" in the 8 x 42 makes a big difference for field of view. Anyway, I am very satisified with my purchase!

 "Celestron 8x25 outland review" 2010-03-18
By J. Leslie (Maryland)
I received the Celestron Outland 8x21 compact binoculars today from Amazon. I give you here my first impressions. The optics are about average or a little better for inexpensive binoculars ($35). The parallax alignment seems to be good. The diopter setting is off zero by a wide margin. The field of view is somewhat limited but not pipelike. The long eye relief seems to work well with glasses. The rubber around the right eye lens was not fitted properly and probably would not be water tight. The image clarity in the center of the field was quite good but field curvature reduced it substantially starting about one third out toward the edges. The binoculars seemed a little heavy for their size but had a solid feel. The focus worked smothly. The best feature was the eye relief. Other than that, they were unspectacular in this price range. I haven't decided whether to keep them. If I do we will see how they hold up.

 "Good deal for the price point" 2009-09-13
By D. Curtis
I bought these as a birthday gift for my daughter's 9th birthday. She requested binoculars so I wanted to give her something that was durable, water resistant and with decent optics, but not for $75-$100. These seem to meet all those criteria. I would be happy to use them for camping or at concerts. The only reason I am giving 4 stars and not 5 is because I just don't know how water resistant they are -- haven't been in the rain with them. I advised my daughter NOT to test them for water resistance!

 "It's the optics" 2009-08-19
By Hilal
I won't go into too much details. I have two of these, which I purchased after my son started getting interested in birds. The optics are simply bad. The alignment of the lenses is bad. Looking through the lenses I can clearly see that the components in the two units are in different positions. The lenses themselves are bad and impurities are easily visible. And the mechanisms are bad; when trying to focus on an object, most of the image remains out of focus. I even had one of the two units replaced by Amazon shortly after I received it and the replacement wasn't any better. Six months later I decided we had to replace them. They now sit in a drawer most of the time. I would be too embarrassed to even give them away to someone, knowing how bad they are.

 "I see the light" 2009-01-09
By Concerned Consumer
These are the best binoculars I have ever owned. I am not a hunter or dedicated bird watcher, so do not have the experience to compare against high priced models, but the clarity and operation of these are top notch.



I have small hands and a small face and these are the only binoculars I have found that allow the eye sockets to be width adjusted so you get the 'single circle' view you are supposed to in binoculars.



The crispness of the view even at the longest distances is amazing. Great value, great product.

 "PACKAGING/SHIPPING" 2009-03-07
By John J. Alaimo
This review concerns shipping and packaging of the Celestraon Outland Binoculars I ordered..When the item arrived there was no bubble wrap or other type of packaging to keep the item from moving around in the container. In additon, the box that contained the binoculars was NOT sealed. Since this is a gift I was very concerned if there was any damgage incurred. I plan to present the gift as a birthday present in June. My question is, if what I described is normal shipping procedures. I won't know if there was any damage until the bincoculars are used.. However, I have to say I was disappointed in the way the item was packaged as it was completely unprotected.

I have several pairs of binoculars. Outland LX 10X42 has a very wide view for a 10X power binocular. Close focus is closer than most other 10X42mm binoculars. These binoculars are high quality with the BAK4 prisms.I have 3 smaller 21mm 22mm & 24mm compact binoculars, with these Outland 42mm medium sized binoculars I rarely use the others. I think you will agree!

I mostely like to view birds and wildlife with these.

 "The pefect birding binoculars!" 2007-01-03
By J. A. Levin-Arroyo (Los Angeles, CA)
I have two pairs of these binoculars as well as a pair of the Outland LX 8x42. I prefer the 10x42 and my husband prefers the 8x42 but both like to use both pairs. The twist up eyecups are a huge benefit whether or not you wear eyeglasses. The are not too heavy and being water proof, even if you do not use them near water it is a plus due to moisture etc. Be sure to twist down the eyecuyps when not using them since if you drop them with the eyecups up and then land on that end it will bend the edge. Even so, I bought myself a second pair because I like them so much.

 "The Kayakers' Friend" 2009-09-13
By Giordano Bruno (Wherever I am, I am.)
These are the binoculars I carry when I kayak, canoe, or raft. They've been in and under water in the far North Pacific, the Atlantic, the fjords of Southern Chile, Lakes Superior, Ontario, Kabetogama, Yellowstone, and a lot of smaller ones, as well as deep under the Green River and the Colorado River. They're still completely functional. Good optics, good feel in the hand. If you have any interest in bird-watching from a boat, these are what you need. And the price is decent. One word of advice, based on experience; stick to Nikon, Canon, and Celestron, and avoid Bushnell like the plague.

 "Great, powerfull and compact binoculars for a nice price" 2009-01-19
By Victor Gavrilenko (CA United States)
I bough these to replace my older Meade and Exakta binoculars which require collimation now (image from 2 lenses don't overlap anymore so all objects appear double). Celestron Outland provides great images during day observations (landscape, birds) and when looking at night sky (nice view of moon, can see more stars and some nebulas).



Pros:

- impressive optics with great clarity

- compact size for its 10x42 magnification and field of view

- long eye relief, good field of view (315 ft at 1000 yds)

- adjustable 2.25"-3.0" distance between eyes, suitable for many face sizes

- eye caps are attached via straps and don't get loose

- focusing wheel adjusts focus at must faster rate than on other binoculars, so only slight turn in wheel is usually enough to set focus and fine adjustment takes just couple seconds

- I've seen these binoculars in a local store where they underwent months/years of wear-n-tear and abuse by testers and they still have nice overall look and lenses still stay aligned so images for both eyes overlap fine for nice 3D picture.



Other:

- 2 sets of straps - one for carrying case and one for binoculars

- small microfiber cleaning cloth included (removes dust and fingerprint smudged)

- soft neoprene carrying case is think but it's just a soft case so I'd not drop binoculars to the bottom of 10+ lbs backpack along with other stuff.

 "Great find, high value binocular, bright clear optics." 2008-11-26
By Ned Skin, Sr. (Seattle, WA USA)
Really good quality binocular with features found in very expensive models. The eye caps stay attached, via hinged straps. I wear glasses and like the fact the eye cups rotate out of position and don't just fold over. I am very impressed with the clarity of the optics. I also have a pair of Steiner Marine binoculars for use while we're sailing. These fill the bill for high quality, toss in the suitcase, keep in the car, use everyday binoculars.

No downsides at all.
