We get requests all the time from serious amateur astronomers asking what binocular we'd recommend for wide-field stargazing. Well, from now on our answer will be Resolux ! They're our new favorite astro binoculars (and equally superb for long-distance daytime viewing), combining high-resolution, flat-field optics with mechanical construction that meets the U.S. military spec for ruggedness and the strict JTII spec for collimation. They are fully waterproof, and nitrogen purged to prevent internal lens fogging. And all this for a very reasonable price.

With this Resolux 10x50 binocular, you'll enjoy performance that you simply won't find in other binoculars. Your first scan of the Milky Way will prove it - pinpoint stars set in bold contrast against the dark background. Gorgeous! The extra-large BAK-4 prisms and advanced multi-coatings on all optical surfaces really drink in the light. The eyepieces focus individually, which yields a sturdier mechanical design than a center-focus mechanism. And with 18mm of eye relief, even eyeglass wearers will see the full field of view.

This Resolux's all-metal housing is armored with thick rubber to ensure a secure, comfortable grip. Each binocular comes with lens caps, heavy-duty tripod adapter, soft padded case, and neck strap. Two-year limited warranty.

At night the Orion 10 x 50s are a joy to use. The images are bright and detailed - especially when compared to my budget-priced 10 x 50s.

"I really like the Orion Resolux 10 x 50s. I feel they deliver everything this type of binocular can - and that's a lot. Whether I was viewing Milky Way star clusters or lunar craters, the optical quality and solid mechanics left me satisfied and quite certain that these will be the last 10 x 50s I'll likely buy."
