Our 8x56 Mini Giant Binocular really hits the sweet spot for astronomy binoculars. It grabs more light than a 50mm glass yet it doesn't have the weight or bulk of larger, giant binoculars. This binocular's 56mm objective lenses deliver bright images of stellar clusterings and other celestial lollipops that adorn the evening sky.

The 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.

The lightest and smallest Mini Giant, this 8x56 binocular nevertheless gathers 25% more light than 50mm binoculars. It offers the widest field of view at 5.8 degrees as well as 8x magnification, 7mm exit pupil, and 18mm eye relief. Weights 2 lbs.

Contributing to this binocular's comfort factor is its long eye relief. No pressing the eyepiece housings into your eye sockets to get the full field of view! Even eyeglass wearers will see edge to edge.

Its relatively compact size allows this Mini Giant binocular to be hand-held comfortably for short viewing stints. That applies to daytime use as well. For extended gazes, you'll want to tripod-mount the binocular for steady images.

Smooth rubber armoring provides a secure grip. A large, knurled center focus wheel, pop-down rubber eyeguards, and threaded socket for optional tripod adapter round out the feature set. This MIni Giant comes with a hard case, deluxe wide neck strap, and lens caps.
