We bought these and mailed them to Boston Law School for an auction. We have no idea how good they are but the buyer told our friend they work very well.

I built my own telescope and used celestron optics. I would recommend these babies. Small, lightweight, zoom functions well.
Just be careful of the knob for this.

Very good choice for the price.

I wanted to buy a pair of binoculars for sometime without spending much money because it was just for hobby..and to play around. Also i wanted a compact set with zoom function so that i can zoom in if needed. After looking at many different ones and their reviews/prices, i came across these for $15. The reviews were decent so i decided to buy them. Just received them and played for sometime. Since these are my 1st binoculars, i cant compare my thoughts with an ideal or more expensive ones available. But here is what i think about these:

- at 8X zoom, Clarity and magnification is good. I could read boards far away that i couldnt even see with naked eyes.
- At higher zoom, as others have mentioned, the image becomes slightly shaky, but not bad at all. I supported the binoculars on my face on one side and stabilized with hands on the other. The magnification at 24x is not too significant as compared to 8X. But it was better. Also the image becomes dull but i could still see if there was enough day light. So people complaining about shakyness is not a big issue.
- The binoculars are very compact and comes with a nice carrying case.
For $15, it is a nice toy to play with and see objects that would be hard to see otherwise.

I am going for a short trip tomorrow and will take these. I am sure it will be fun to have them. Overall these are good. Dont know how significantly different the nikons are but these are almost 10 times cheaper than Nikon eagleview. I am happy overall.

DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM CELESTRON.
I made a mistake thinking I got a deal, after getting problems adjusting the lens to compensate for my near sightedness, I had to spend the $$$ to buy a NIKON 8x WATERPROOF binoculars for my trip to Alaska. The Nikon did a MUCH better than job, furthermore the return policy with Celestron pretty much tells you what they think of their product, (WORTHLESS)

Any company willing to make you pay a high premium to return their defective product for service is telling you the REAL worth of the product you purchase. If you cannot buy a NIKON, get a VIVITAR.

My opinion, stick to binoculars with FIXED magnifications. 8x and a pair of 16x should be all the binoculars you will ever need.
