Far simpler to use than a telescope, the Celestron 7x50 SkyMaster Pro ED Binocularsare made for astronomy and offer an easy way to explore the night sky. They're also great for daytime terrestrial glassing, with good magnifying power and large objective lenses for a bright image. Extra-low dispersion lenses and multiple coats of antireflective XLT coating combine to produce high-contrast views with accurate color fidelity. Astronomy with binoculars is easier with stable support, so the SkyMaster Pro ED can be mounted on a tripod with an optional adapter. Special eyepiece threads allow the use of 1.25" astronomical filters to improve your viewing experience.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is the tripod even worth advertised? What are the dimensions of the tripod package? What is the weight of the tripod? How much is the tripod?

A: The 20x80 SkyMaster Pro binocular matches well with Celestron's Regal tripod. For specs and pricing please refer to this link: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1077100-REG/celestron_82052_tripod_regal_premium.html Sincerely, Garrett at Celestron

Q: 2. Do you have solar filters available for the 25 x 100 binocular

A: The MrStarGuy Adjustable Objective White Light Solar Filter (86-117mm OD) might work well. However no guarantee. These really weren't made to accept Filters. You would need to purchase 2 pieces. Website link: https://bhpho.to/2iDa5RJ

Q: 3. CELESTRON 20X80 SKY MASTER PRO BINOCULARS , WHAT COUNTRY ARE MANUFACTURED IN ?

A: The country of origin is China.

Q: 4. I bought one of these very heavy binos. Used it a couple or 3 times on my Manfrotto t-pod. They are so heavy that, on the 4th or 5th nite, they stripped the threads off of the socket & it hit the pavement. This knocked both tubes out of alignment! At least the only external damage - to one tube - was an extremely small ding & a scratch or 2. STW - does anyone know of repair shops that do realignments? I'm in the Boston, MA area.

A: Sorry to hear your binocular got damaged. Please contact our technical support team and a representative will be able to assist you in getting your SkyMaster 20x80 repaired. The best way to reach them is by submitting a ticket here: https://www.celestron.com/pages/technical-support

Q: 5. Does it comes with a tripod adapter? Metal or plastic?

A: The SkyMaster Pro 15x70 binocular comes with a metal tripod adapter.

Q: 6. Can the collimation be adjusted if needed?

A: Yes, however you would need to send the model into Celestron to do this. They would offer this Service.

Q: 7. Sorry but I have another question for you guys.... What is the best binoculars to view planets? And what is the best binoculars to look out over the ocean from a balcony? Sorry this is really 2 question.... Thanks everyone!

A: In this price bracket the Celestron 20x80 SkyMaster Pro Binoculars BH #CE20X81SM • MFR #72031 are ideal...As I said before any magnification over 12X will be impossible to hand hold. A tripod will be necessary.

[50 mm] The optics is very good for the price. For better ergonomics I also bought a Farpoint Far-sight binocular support kit. It also allows to rapidly change height without changing the aim between 2 or more users. The optional Farpoint Universal Binocular Mount Swing Hinge ($50 extra) is not needed because these binos include a built-in tripod adapter with a similar tilt function, but otherwise such adapter is useful. I put Farpoint mount on cheap Ravelli APGL4 tripod legs (along with Ravelli ACD Dolly for Prosumer Tripods on a hard, even surface), and store all this hardware in a BagMate Multipurpose Telescope Case (38x10.5x7.25 inch). The setup is heavy, but can be carried with a shoulder strap, say, for 500m. These Celestron binoculars are recommended for astronomy and birdwatching, especially when viewing stationary and mounting on an agronomical binocular support. 5

[4.2 lb] Solid. Heavy. Awesome. As hoped for. 5

[20.8 mm] So far, have had no issues with these binoculars. Sky watching has been great and the portability is a huge plus, although I definitely recommend a sturdy tripod for optimal viewing. 5

[7x] muy buena óptica, recomendados! 5

Magda	21/05/2024
[6.4 mm] We bought the 20x80s to see the celestial and the long distance terrestrial images from our home on the James River. NNSY, we can see folks on the carriers from 5 miles away. The Moon and beyond? Yeah, Sea of Tranquility, we can see you too! 5

[7x] i alredy had a pair of zoom binos, 10 to 30 by 60...the celestrons are so far superior...brigntness, clarity and field of view are exceptional for terrestrial and night sky viewing...the optics are superb, and beautifully alligned out of the box...they are terrific for the price...remember, these are big, and powerful, so don't expect to use them hand held...you are gunna need a tripod... 5

[4.2 lb] I have used the Skymaster Pro 20X81 for a few days and I am glad I bought it. I used a monopod to hold it steady as the magnification is high. The image clarity is excellent. These binoculars seem quite solid. 5

Larry	05/04/2024
[-3 to +3] Great binoculars but you really need a tripod due to their size. 5

Terry	01/04/2024
[6.4 mm] These are best used with a quality mount and tripod like a Manfrotto for best viewing. They have a wide FOV and are not as heavy to use as some would have you think if you want to use them without a tripod. The extra eye cups are nice and since I mount it I also added the red dot finder since they include a mount. Very transportable. 5
