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.

A review of Orion Scenix 7×50 Binocular.
Price: 99.95 USD
Manufacturer: Orion
Orion Scenix 7×50 Binocular – Product Warranty: One year
Product Type: Binoculars > Standard Size
Orion’s Scenix 50mm binoculars offer the superior optical and mechanical quality you’d expect in more expensive binoculars but at a price that won’t break the bank. Scenix binoculars incorporate porro prisms made from top-quality BAK-4 optical glass. Moreover, every air-to-glass optical surface is antireflection coated, and the 50mm objective lenses are multi-layer coated for maximum light transmission. In Astronomy magazine’s April 2005 review of 10×50 binoculars under $100, the Scenix 10×50 was rated #1! The housings are constructed of sturdy metal, not plastic, and armored with protective rubber for a secure grip. Both modelsl include a vinyl carrying case, lens caps, deluxe wide neck strap, and a threaded socket for an optional tripod L-adapter. Put Scenix to use for stargazing, birdwatching, or any outdoor viewing activity. Two-year limited warranty.

Orion UltraView 8×42 Wide-Angle Binocular – Product Warranty: One year
Type of Product: Binoculars > Standard Size
Eyeglass wearers love our UltraView series of binoculars not only for their 22mm eye relief but also their great light-gathering capabilities and superb optics. Just twist down the rubber-covered eyecups and, with your glasses or sunglasses on, you can still take in the whole field of view. UltraViews contain high-index BAK-4 glass prisms, and all optical surfaces are fully multi-coated for maximum light transmission and minimum reflection. Big 50mm objectives and generous 6.5-deg viewing field make UltraViews suitable for terrestrial observing and astronomy. The cast-metal alloy bodies are rubber-armored for water resistance and better grip. Each model is threaded to accept an L-adapter for tripod mounting. Nylon case and deluxe wide-neck strap are included. Ten-year limited warranty.
