Orion Resolux WP 15×70 Astronomical Binoculars Review
A review of Orion Resolux WP 15×70 Astronomical Binoculars.
Price: 369.95 USD
Manufacturer: Orion
Orion Resolux WP 15×70 Astronomical Binoculars – Product Warranty: Two Year
Product Type: Binoculars > Giant Size
Resolux binoculars are our new favorite astro binoculars (and equally superb for long-distance daytime viewing), combining high-resolution, flat-field optics with rugged mechanical construction and the strict JTII spec for collimation. They are fully waterproof, and nitrogen purged to prevent internal lens fogging. The BAK-4 prisms and advanced multi-coatings on all optical surfaces really drink in the light. The eyepieces focus individually, and with 18mm or more of eye relief on each model, even eyeglass wearers will see the full field of view. The Resolux’s all-metal housing is armored with thick rubber to ensure a secure, comfortable grip. Each binocular comes with tethered lens caps, heavy-duty tripod adapter, and neck strap. The 50mm models include a padded soft carrying case. Two-year limited warranty.

Orion Mini Giant 9×63 Binocular Review
A review of Orion Mini Giant 9×63 Binocular.
Price: 199.95 USD
Manufacturer: Orion
Orion Mini Giant 9×63 Binocular – Product Warranty: One year
Type of Product: Binoculars > Giant Size
Our 9×63 Mini Giant Binocular grabs more light than a 50mm glass yet it doesn’t have the weight or bulk of larger, “giant” binoculars. Its 63mm objective lenses deliver bright images of stellar clusterings and other celestial lollipops that adorn the evening sky. Of course, this Mini Giant binocular excels for daytime viewing as well. Its lenses and high-grade BAK-4 prisms are fully multi-coated to permit the highest light transmission possible. The aluminum barrels are internally glare-threaded to ensure rich contrast and eliminate ghosting. Images are sharp, bright, and wonderfully vivid. Contributing to this Mini Giant’s comfort factor is its long eye relief. Even eyeglass wearers will see edge to edge. Its relatively compact size allows this Mini Giant binocular to be hand-held comfortably. For extended gazes, you’ll want to tripod-mount it for steady images. It comes with a hard case, deluxe wide neck strap, and lens caps. Five-year limited warranty.
