      Comments about Celestron 8x42 Outland Binocular:

      I bought these binoculars thinking of using it for Birdwatching since I'm a biologist. When I took them out of the Case, it seems very tough and very well constructed. The size is just as fair as you would expect from a 8x42 roof prism binocular, they aren't big and neither the smallest binoculars out there, they are just fine and it's good for both small and big faces. So I went to home to test it. Theses binoculars simply surprised me with it's image quality. I took a look at a tree near my home, and it was like I was able to watch each branch separately, absolute amazing definition and focus precision.
      Took it to some Atlantic forest fragment in my city to do some birdwatching, and it again surprised me. Pretty colors and every detail of the bird can be seen with it.
      One thing that I don't understand is why they are so cheap? For me they worth every cent spent, actualy they worth even more. I recomend it!
