Great quality product
A little heavy but great

Good quality
I really like these they are good quality which i guess for the price they should be! Easy to focus nice to hold good grip materials. The only thing I think is for the price the carry bag is very poor quality and they only just fit in the bag. The carry strap is thin and not very strong so not sure how long the bag or strap will last. But love the binoculars
Billy
Simple to set up
I bought this for my adult son who has some disabilities. He couldn’t use mine very easily..too heavy and cumbersome. He loves these. We are both impressed by the ease of set up, clarity and how lightweight they are. They are used many times a day.

Not cheap
Can see the moon but can see the moon without them too. I was watching a plane fly over with the bins you could see all the plane detail and I saw another plane fly over the first wouldn't be able to see it with the naked eye. I live in ground floor flat so I can't even be nosey lol but yeah these are great binoculars but price is astronomical especially as you can't see moon craters. Hopefully when the skies get clearer I'll be able see more stars. My biggest regret is not getting a stand for the binoculars as holding them starts to make you shake so harder to keep an eye on 1 thing. Shadows around the eye piece is your face nothing to do with the binoculars themselves. Great pair I'm enjoying them.

Superb magnification, although a tad heavy. Perfect for those who know the weight & want unbelievable magnification.

I can see for miles!!
I recently bought these to visit a nature reserve and they did not disappoint. Very easy to use this was a decent upgrade to my previous binoculars.

Fantastic product
This is great for nature watching and close ups if the moon
Barry, 35 - 44, Essex
Decent entry level binoculars
We bought these for dolphin watching in New Quay, among other things, and they’ve been great. They’re obviously a larger set, but with that comes strong, bright magnification.

Hello there,
The Celestron SkyMaster 12x60 binoculars are a great all-around option for both bird watching at sea and stargazing. They strike a good balance between magnification, light-gathering, and portability. Just keep in mind that for best results, especially at sea or during long stargazing sessions.
Using a tripod or monopod is highly recommended.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hello Khushi,
From the information we have available, I can advise the Celestron Skymaster 12x60 Binoculars are tripod adaptable. They can be mounted on any traditional photographic tripod using a standard binocular tripod adapter. However, the tripod adapter is not included with the binoculars.
Thank you for using Q&A

Hi 19Cel48,
Ultima, Hummingbird, TrailSeeker, or Regal brand tripods, will hold any standard field binocular or spotting scope firmly in place for long duration viewing. Each brand will have their own advantages so you can determine which is best for your needs. More information can be found on the Celestron support pages.
Thanks for using Q&A,
