Celestron 71405 TrailSeeker ED 8 x 42 Roof Prism Binocular, Fully Multi-Coated Lens, BaK-4 Prism Glass, Black

I spent a long time researching before getting a new pair of binoculars, and found bestbinocularsreviews extremely helpful. I narrowed down my choice down to two, which I couldn't decide between. I finally went with these Celestron TrailSeeker ED 8 x 42 Roof Prism because they were at a good price on Prime Day, and I'm so, so delighted. To be fair, any new binoculars were going to seem good compared to my 50(?) year-old 10x50 porro prism bins, but these have really exceeded my expectations. The image is the critical thing, and these are really bright (the electrolytic coated prisms make a huge difference), sharp right across the field of view, with no colour fringing that I can see at all. They focus really nicely, have a slightly wider field of view than most bins, and they eye cups are brilliant for using the bins with glasses or for my wife without glasses. They're light and feel well made, so I feel I can take them every time I go on a walk, which I haven't done for years. The eye cups can stay attached, which is nice. The only thing that feels very slightly disappointing is the case feels a bit lightweight, but I think it's good enough. I like the shoulder harness, too, though I haven't tried it out yet as the strap is good.

After reading reviews on a hand full of similar 8x32 priced bino's these seemed to suit me, more than the others. Image quality very good. (naked eye only, I don't use glasses) Focus precise and sharpish (practice needed here) Weight around my neck about right, 500 grams or there-abouts Handling and size of bino's feels good. A good all-rounder/keeping an eye on dog running in the countryside /nature watching etc. Price to quality/ about right, in my opinion.

Great sharpness and clarity. Very good value compared to other brands at this level.

Fantastic clarity in a small pair of binoculars. Far better than my larger ones. Fantastic value and quality and better than the price would suggest.

I chose the 8x32 ED after lots of research as I wanted something I could take hiking for scouting the area as well as getting a closer look at nature. I got to test them thoroughly today at Holkam and they were flawless. First off there were lots of butterflies and dragonflies and to my surprise these could focus easily on the close stuff, giving me a new perspective on these colourful creatures. Then we passed by a bird hide looking out over the marshes. I'm not much of a birder and I was worried the 2 blokes inside might bore me to death but I gave it a shot and I was amazed by the clarity and colours and really enjoyed watching the birds go about their business. I can definitely see the appeal and will do it again. Then we went on to the beach and I got to see some ships out at sea. Holkham beach is vast but be careful as you pan around because it turns out they have a naturism section and you might end up looking at an old guy with his dangly bits out. When looking to pick up the trail back inland I was able to easily scan the horizon and pick out the correct heading. Looking forward to making the most of these on some hikes in the mountains too. They are just the right size, any larger and I think they would be too much.

Such good binoculars and at this price, a steal, really good clarity and build quality …..all back up with a lifetime warranty, excellent !

Excellent for lightweight bird spotting, light and clear. Field of view is crucial for most applications as the hand does shake (and also aligning to the target in the first place) and this set fits the bill My wife bought me a higher magnification (lower field of view) set of binoculars many, many years ago. These 8 X 32's are much better. Moderate magnification which may not suit everyone but for amateur garden bird watching and hill walks to see the view, this is perfect. Frigate captains searching for submarines on a grey sea, look elsewhere.

Great little pair of binoculars. I bought as a lightweight alternative to my 8x40 but now use these most of the time.

Excellent Binoculars. Light & small but with fantastic optics. Great for exploring nature. Excellent service too, very fast delivery.

Costruzione solida, lenti ED, buona confezione. Peso in linea con la concorrenza, ben equilibrato. Custodia morbida, ma ben imbottita. Il FOV è buono, la nitidezza di Ottimo livello, la messa a fuoco precisa. La luminosità, in linea con il rapporto tra ingrandimento e diametro delle lenti (8x42), mi ha soddisfatto anche in penombra. I colori mi sembra non abbiano dominanti fastidiose. A mio parere la performance in generale è di livello superiore al suo prezzo. Un buon acquisto.

Excellent &better performance Value for money.
