An ideal companion for most outdoor enthusiasts, the Meade 10x50 EclipseView Binoculars features a powerful combination of magnification and objective lens size, with the added versatility of removable white-light solar filters to view the sun or solar eclipses. With the filters removed, the binocular can be used for conventional terrestrial or nighttime astronomical viewing with the benefits of a large exit pupil that completely covers most fully-dilated pupils in low-light conditions to avoid vignetting, and a field of view that borders on wide angle. The two included solar filters install over the front of the objectives and allow safe viewing of sunspots, granulations, planetary transits, and all phases of solar eclipses. For long-duration observation sessions, such as watching all phases of a total solar eclipse, the EclipseView binocular can be tripod mounted using optional adapters.
