Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Orion UltraView 10x50 Wide-Angle Binoculars
Customer Review: I like 'em
Summary: 5 Stars
I've owned a pair for several years, and think that they're great. I've never star tested them, but stars come out pinpoint sharp, focuser is great. I disagree with the previous reviewer that they're for previewing before moving on to a scope: they're much better than that. They've got a 6.5 degree field of view, while most scopes have 1.5 degree or less (depending on how much magnification you're using). So they can see much wider things than scopes can see, like m31, which is more than 7 degrees wide (and is consequently dark and boring in a scope). Nice 50mm lenses for light collection.
Description of Orion UltraView 10x50 Wide-Angle Binoculars
Eyeglass wearers love our UltraView series of binoculars not only for their 22mm eye relief but also their great light-gathering capabilities and superb optics. Just twist down the rubber-covered eyecups and, with your glasses or sunglasses on, you can still take in the whole field of view. UltraViews contain high-index BAK-4 glass prisms, and all optical surfaces are fully multi-coated for maximum light transmission and minimum reflection. Big 50mm objectives and generous 6.5-deg viewing field make UltraViews suitable for terrestrial observing and astronomy. The cast-metal alloy bodies are rubber-armored for water resistance and better grip. Each model is threaded to accept an L-adapter for tripod mounting. Nylon case and deluxe wide-neck strap are included. Ten-year limited warranty.Binoculars
