Description of Celestron UpClose Binoculars

Extremely affordable Celestron UpClose series offers binoculars for different use, among which are also two zoom models with adjustable magnifications for finest details without the need to move to another location. You can choose between the smallest binoculars on the market with 8x21 configuration and large 20x50 configuration for nighttime observations. You can take them with you on sport events, concerts, when hiking, hunting, birdwatching or looking at the night sky for stars, comets, planets etc. The smallest model has a roof prism design and larger has a Porro prism design that helps to enhance light transmission. UpClose binoculars are multi-coated, using BK7 glass and splash-proof that protects them in damp areas and are equipped with central focusing mechanism instead of individual.

Basic Features

UpClose binoculars are made out of extremely durable aluminum housing that helps to protect them against impacts together with rubber armouring. Small dimensions that make them compact also help with easier portability and comfortable handling, even when using them for longer periods of time. UpClose binoculars are splash-proof, which means they aren’t waterproof and fog-proof but are still durable and tight enough to prevent damage when used in the damp areas. Fully sized models are also tripod adaptable which allows you to mount them on a tripod and get steadier images.

Optical Properties

UpClose series offers binoculars for different kinds of use. Depending on the power and objective lens diameter, you can choose between fixed or zoom configuration. The zoom binoculars allow you to make power adjustments – changing magnification without need to change the position. The Porro prism system of bigger fully sized models draws in more light and allows you to gather enough brightness even in the low-light conditions which is extremely convenient for astronomy observations. BK7 prisms and multi-coated system also help to enhance brightness, contrast and colors without major distortions and reflections. They are equipped with central focusing mechanism and left-eye diopter to make proper adjustments. Foldable eyecups have a 12mm eye-relief so it’s suggested to try them on if you are eyeglass wearer.

Accessories

UpClose binoculars come in a case for storage and protection with a binocular strap. They are also equipped with objective lens covers and eyecups covers to protect the lenses, however they’re only included in bigger models, not in smaller roof prism models.

General Properties of Zoom Binoculars

Zoom binoculars are one of the rarest types of binoculars on the market. Zoom binoculars are versatile and very affordable, providing an optical compromise with multiple magnification levels in just one pair of binoculars. Magnification, therefore, isn’t fixed and can be adjusted with a zoom-in and zoom-out system. When tracking the following object, you can easily change from low to high power in a matter of seconds, to get finer details and improve your visual experience. Zoom binoculars are mostly suitable for long-range observations such as marine applications and astronomy. Zoom binoculars also come in handy when hunting, but are providing a smaller field of view (fov) and are therefore less suited for bird watching and other dynamic applications.

The quality of zoom binoculars is not as good as in high-ends. The mechanism of zoom binoculars is a little bit complicated and is equipped with a flexible linkage band that helps to maintain clear images of moving lenses when adjusting the focus whilst zooming. The perfect synchronization is thus harder to maintain due to many zoom mechanism parts, making images fuzzier than the conventional binoculars with fixed magnification. Due to this moving mechanism, lenses are hard to perfectly align, also providing collimation issues.

Astronomy

Beginners in astronomy sometimes have the desire to purchase zoom binoculars, because they allow them to look at a wider area, and focus on a certain part of the sky, where they find the detail they want to look closer at. In theory, it sounds good, but in practice, these zoom binoculars have so many compromises on optical performance that the actual image quality is very poor.

Compact Binoculars

Many zoom binoculars manufacturers produce them with very compact lenses, 24 mm or 30 mm, mainly because they are usually bought by travelers, scouts, mountaineers, etc... They are expecting and thinking that with zoom binoculars it will be easier and better to observe nature. The truth is those zoom binoculars are usually not such a good choice.

Bird watching binoculars

When buying high-quality zoom binoculars, there is a possibility that you can watch fast-moving birds and other wildlife at a lower magnification and follow them in motion. Lower magnification is also suitable for slower, bigger birds and those in nests. When you want to see more details, and, for example, define their gender and age, then you put it on a higher magnification, so you get a better resolution to see the details better.

High power Binoculars

Many manufacturers often exaggerate with magnification- it is almost impossible to observe with more than 12x magnification and hold zoom binoculars in hands, because of the shaking. We recommend binoculars with a variable zoom in the lower power area (up to 12x magnification zoom).

Leica Binoculars

Leica is the only premium manufacturer that produces popular and High ends zoom binoculars and also the only one among those, that dared to tackle this task and produce such binoculars, which still have good optical properties. However, the magnification is not continuous; whether it is 8x or 12x. Between these two magnifications, the image is blurry. It is the only choice for those who wish to buy zoom binoculars with high image quality.
