What We Like About the Celestron 8 x 40 UpClose G2 Binoculars

  • The 8 x 40 UpClose binoculars are still portable but offer a lot more light-gathering than smaller models.
  • At 8.2°, you'll enjoy a wide field of view through these medium-sized binoculars.
  • A rubberized body makes the 8 x 40 UpClose binoculars water resistant, but it also protects the optics from little bumps and knocks.
  • A magnification of 8X is popular with birders and nature-lovers. 8X is a nice compromise in magnification. Its higher than standard 7X binoculars, but lower than 10X models, which may cause image shake due to their higher magnification.
  • If you'd like to do some hand's free viewing, you can mount these Celestron binoculars on a tripod with the addition of an optional binocular tripod adapter.
  • The Celestron 8x40 UpClose G2 Binoculars come with a soft carry case and a strap.
