I use this for planetary viewing and star grazing with a specialized binocular mount. Venus' crescent popped right out as did Jupiter's moons...and I look forward to many a night of viewing the planets and some deep-sky objects.

very nice binoculars
what you can see is spectacular,looking at the branches of a distant tree there is a 3d effect that puts you there like you are a bug,seeing it by sitting on a leaf amongst the branches,very cool.looking at the moon you can truly see that it's a sphere,not a flat circle,the naked eye sees,once
Pros:
- Close Focus
- Quality Lenses
- Strong Construction
- Very nice well made
- Works Well With Glasses
Cons:
- But as advertised
- Hard to hold steady

Big and Heavy you will need Tripod
If you use it with a Tripod it is a Great Binocular. Without a Tripod you can use for 15-20 minutes, after that your arms will hurt. The Tripod adapter provided needs to be filled with Araldite, as it is made of plastic and cannot bear the weight of the Binocular.

Simply amazing
They are also great for terrestrial viewing. Contrast and definition are excellent. Best optical value I've ever seen.

Pros:
- Quality Lenses
- Strong Construction
- Waterproof
Cons:
- Lens Caps dont stay on
- Need Better Tripod Mount

If I Must Complain
Best deal for the price of any astronomy binoc to me anyway. Once I put a wide strap on them, they became my favorites. I did not know the center star in the pleides was vivid yellow. Of course if the star is not really yellow, then these are horrible binocs.
Pros:
- well built
- excellent images throughout range
- large aperture
Cons:
- strap is useless unless you enjoy discomfort

value for money !!
No other vendor is offering 15x70 binocular with bak prism for this price, I bought it from Homeshop18 for 5200/- 3 months back, packaging was excellent, delivery was delayed for few days, you will get bino with lense covers + tripod clip, I am using it now but most of the time holding it in hands...

Great price decent binoculars
I haven't owned these for very long but what a great deal. Not sure why they are so inexpensive, as others have stated. They are a little heavy and i plan on using a monopod or tripod when I head out to Yellowstone.
